G                  C             G             C

I think it was last Thursday - I went to see my friend

   G               C        G                  C

We drank some Coca Cola, we laughed a while and then

   Em                       D

We dove into philosophy and politics and sin

           C

The way we do

   G                 C           G                 C

He told my he'd been looking the cold truth in the eyes

   G            C          G             C

He told me my religion was wishing in disguise

   Em                           D

He said "The only Savior is the one inside your mind"

            Am G      Am

And I said "if that's true - Then you can



CHORUS:

Em      D            C               G

Call me crazy 'cause I don't want to live that way

Em      D      C               G

Call me lazy - I don't want to work that hard

Em      D      C                      G            F

Call me crazy, but I don't think that I can save myself



             G               C        G             C

You see I've read a thousand pages on how to help myself

     G                  C          G           C

To a thousand different ways to perfect mental health

      Em                                      D

And I swear I've tried them all and I'm still needing something else

            Am  G   Am

And I think you are too



So you can



CHORUS

           D                              A

And furthermore I still believe in what I cannot see or touch

C                                        G

Crazy things like dreams and prayers and faith and hope and love

             D                                  A

And I know a life without these things is not a life at all

           C                       Am



So you can call it sanity but then you'll have to call me crazy
