[Dm]
[Dm]I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my [F]mind
[F]There was something so pleasant about that phase
[Bb]Even your emotions had an echo
In so much [A7]space [A]


[Dm]And when you’re out there, without care
Yeah, I was out of [F]touch
But it wasn’t because I didn’t know enough [Bb]
I just knew too [A7]much [A]


Does that make me [Dm]crazy?
Does that make me [F]crazy??
Does that make me [Bb]crazy???
Possib[A7]ly [A]


[D]And I hope that you are having the time of your [Bb]life
But think [F]twice, that’s my only ad[A7]vice [A]


[Dm]Come on now who do you
who do you, who do you, who do you think you [F]are?
Ha ha ha, bless your so [Bb]ul
You really think you’re in con[A7]trol? [A]


Well, I think you’re [Dm]crazy!
I think you’re [F]crazy,
I think you’re [Bb]crazy,
Just like [A7]me [A]


[D]My heroes had the heart, to lose their lives out on a [Bb]limb
And all I re[F]member, is thinking, I want to be like [A7]them [A]


[Dm]Ever since was little, ever since I was little it looked like [F]fun
And it’s no coincidence I’ve co [Bb]me
And I can die when I’m [A7]done [A]


Maybe I’m [Dm]crazy
Maybe you’re [F]crazy
Maybe we’re [Bb]crazy


Probably [A7] [A]
Ooh [D] [Bb]ooh [F] [A7] [A] [Dm]
