********************

Verse 1:

What else should I be

All apologies

What else should I say

Everyone is gay

What else could I write

I don't have the right

What else should I be

All apologies

In the sun

In the sun I feed as one

In the sun

In the sun

married

buried

Verse 2:

I wish I was like you

Easily amused

Find my nest of salt

Everything is my fault

I'll take all the blame

Aqur scafoam shame

Sunburn with freezeburn

Choking on the ashes of her enemy

Ending:

Oh no is all we are (?)

All in all we all are

Hmmm...  take everything on the 4th and 5th strings and move

it up 2 frets, and you'e got the way _I_ play it.  Doesnt'

mean anything, buy hey, it's my two cents.  Try it...  I really

think the open low Db and an 11th fret A on the next string sound

right together.
