Tuning: Em, E A D G B E
DON'T MESS WITH ME
As recorded by the Poets Of The Fall
(From the 2005 Album SIGNS OF LIFE)
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I kn
ow there's not
hing to say
So do I pick u
p my puzzle an
d just walk aw
ay
Do I follow my
conscience, a
m I mock since
re?
I don't know w
hat I'm doing
here
I have a knack
for perceivin
g things
I can see how
it sounds, I c
an feel how it
sings
When you paint
me an image o
f who you are
I know it's th
e best by far,
so
[Chorus]
Don't, don't,
don't mess my
hair
(If all you do
is fake it)
Don't, don't,
don't say you
care
('Cause I coul
d never shake
it)
Don't, don't,
don't mess wit
h me
Don't, don't,
don't mess wit
h me
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
No point of vi
ew is enough t
o quell
The rigors of
passion in thi
s world I dwel
l
If I'm going t
o scale the hi
ghest wall
I'm gonna give
it my all
Riding along w
ith this train
of thought
I see everythi
ng, I find all
I sought
And I try to k
ick the habit
of trying to r
each
But there's so
mething I do b
eseech, so ple
ase...
[Chorus]
Don't, don't,
don't mess my
hair
(If all you do
is fake it)
Don't, don't,
don't say you
care
('Cause I coul
d never shake
it)
Don't, don't,
don't mess wit
h me
Don't, don't,
don't mess wit
h me
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
I'll say it's
not surprising
You're sweet t
alking, mesmer
izing
Juicy and appe
tizing, true
But will I nee
d to get over
you?
Feels like my
sun is rising
Tick, tick, ti
ck, synchroniz
ing
Readjusting, o
rganizing me
Is this fictio
n reality?
Bless the unco
mpromising
With no shame
for advertisin
g
When my needs
go through dow
nsizing
I need someone
to pick up my
beat
My dreams need
realizing
Candles on sug
ar icing
Judgment and h
armonizing
Or it'll end u
p like before
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Don't, don't,
don't mess my
hair
(If all you do
is fake it)
Don't, don't,
don't say you
care
('Cause I coul
d never shake
it)
Don't, don't,
don't mess wit
h me
Don't, don't,
don't mess wit
h me
