What I Did Lyrics & Tabs by Peter Hammill
What I Did
guitar chords lyrics
A pretty pass in the rear-view mirror,
it's coming on the overtake...
I've got to stop panicking, got to stay cool,
got to learn to live with my mistakes.
Overdue debt to the taxman,
I tried to have and eat my cake.
I think I must have been crazy in retrospect;
all the lines run together
but they just don't seem to connect.
I think I must have been crazy
to do all the things I did...
try to keep the pot on a gentle simmer,
but something blows off the lid.
I want to update my memory,
I want to rewrite my past...
but something blows off the lid.
I want to update my memory,
I want to rewrite my past...
Ooh, now I found out: no chance.
I think I must have been crazy
(Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
to do the stuff I did.
I think I must have been crazy, crazy, crazy.
(Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
to do the stuff I did.
I think I must have been crazy, crazy, crazy...
I think I must have been crazy
but that's the price we pay –
every lucky throw of the dice
will come back to us one of these days.
I want to update my memory,
I want to rewrite my past,
I don't like what it's telling me,
it all floods back so fast;
I guess I was my own worst enemy,
now I've come to a pretty pass.
A pretty pass, a pretty pass,
there's nothing pretty in the past.
I think I must have been crazy
(Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
to do the stuff I did.
I think I must have been crazy, crazy, crazy...
Crazy to do what I did.
