Capo 4th
CHORUS
C G
Oh my God I’ve
been wound up tighter
Em F
Than the band
around the old oak tree
C Em
Not angry as
such, just thinking too much
F G
And all I wanted
came true
Oh my God I’ve
been wound up tighter
Than the cord
that runs around your heart
Planting the
seeds, that turned into weeds
And suffocated
all of my love
VERSE
C
All the problems
I see
Em
Were seeds inside
me
F
C
And I’ve been
nursing them in there for so long
I’m surprised now
you know
How they started
to grow
G
And soon they
were out of control
They fed on the
dirt
As I piled up
hurt
And the
conditions were truly perfect
It’s clear now I sing
That thoughts
become things
But back then I
deaf to the words
CHORUS
VERSE
Slowly I’ve seen
How foolish I’ve
been
Wishing happiness
just for myself
It’s sadly short-sighted
And sorrow’s
invited
When you sow the
seeds in such a small space
Instead of
spreading ‘em wide
Cos then you’re
laughing inside
As you suddenly
see you’re feeding the world
CHORUS
MIDDLE
F C
Start thinking
that you need to stop thinking
Em G
Turn down the
volume inside your own head
Don’t look at the
dots that it’s linking
They only exit in
your head
CHORUS
