Dimetrodon

	  		verse 1: 
A                                       D 
When I wake up on the wrong side of the planet 
A                                      D 
And the creamer for my coffee has gone bad 
A                                          D 
And the people on the street should really can it  
A                                                 D 
Because I don't think they would like me when I'm mad 
E                           D      A 
Down at the bottom I have a secret trick 
E                                     A 
It's a thing to bring me up when I am low 
E                            D         A 
It's simple, it is easy, and it's real quick 
E                                        
And it went extinct two hundred million years ago

They ate sharks and were ten feet long

Di-me-tro-don 
A                     E         A 
It's a thought that I can count on 
E                                   D       A 
When my darkest thoughts have got a hold on me 
E                                        D     A 
I close my eyes and I remember all their giant teeth 
E                                    D     A 
To shake off all the problems I have piled on 
D                                D     A 
I picture the sailback giants of Di-me-tro-don

verse 2: 
A                               D 
I am walking in a mall or in an airport 
A                                      D 
And I'm filling up with loneliness and fear 
A                                   D 
Like I'm not really a member of the species 
A                                       D 
And I don't think I am special I'm just weird 
E                                     D       A 
When I am feeling this one thing will make me smile 
E                                         A 
There are other folks who never quite fit in 
E                                      D    A 
They're kind of mammals, but they look like reptiles 
E                                       D 
And I bet that difference never bothers them
