Who am i?



(capoed 3rd fret) Am D Am
Who am i, I shouted on the corner of two streets.
D Am
Who am i, I went looking to the bottom of a bottle.
D Am
I'm somewhere between Baudelaire and Mad magazine.
D Am
Just sitting there.............. full throttle.

chorus
C G
I don't think God makes mistakes
Am
and I don't think I'm a really doin wrong,
but somedays I think I don't know what I'm thinkin,
D Am
thinkin I could ever write this world a song.

Who am I, I played on a stage last night in Georgia.
Who am I, I et eggs in Mississippi. *
On the phone, I could hear it in her voice, she was naked
and I could tell, she didn't miss me.

chorus

Who am i, my name? There is no stranger word.
Who am i, my mother does not recognize me.
Why would I insult this pitiful world
while looking in the eyes of such beauty?


*One mornin' teacher says "Timmy, what did you have for
breakfast?" Timmy says, "This mornin I et seven eggs."
Teacher says, "Don't you mean ate?" Timmy thinks and
says, "Maybe it was eight eggs I et!"
