Excuses Uke tab by Alanis Morissette

Verse I
AE
Why no one will help me
    DE
I'm too dumb I'm too smart
AE
They'll not understand me
    DE
I am lonely they'll hate me
    A      E
And there is not enough time
    DE
It's too hard to help me
    A    E
And god wants me to work
D     E
No resting no lazy


Chorus I
A  Dm    A
These excuses how they served me so well
F
They've kept me safe
A
They've kept me stoic
Dm     A
They've kept me locked in my own cell

Verse II
AE
I'm too far from home
D      E
It takes far too much energy
    A        E
And I cannot afford to
       DE
No one will ever see me

Chorus I


Chorus II
A  Dm    A
These excuses how they're so familiar
F
They've kept me blocked
A
They've kept me small
Dm   A
They've kept me safe inside my shell


Bridge
D  F
Bringing this into the light
   A
Shakes their foundation
      E
And it clears my side
D    F
Now my imagination
A
Is the only thing that limits
    E      D
The bar that is raised to the heights


Verse III
A   E
No one can have it all see
  DE
I have to they want me to
    A    E
And I can't let them down
       D      E
I'll never be happy


Chorus I

Chorus II
