Tuesday, in the morning

I punch my fist right

through the wall

Duh duh, duh-duh, duh-duh, duh-duh

Now that it's over

I don't know how to feel

Moving to California

Where I won't have to deal

Chain-smoking cigarettes
Dm           G           Em
Foot to the floor of my car
     Am         Dm    G
As I go to confront you
