 I broke your doll,
 It was cross eyed, that's all,
 I only wanted it to help it see straight,
 But like  a half  broken moon,
Sooner  than soon,
I  was up on your wall,
Smaller  than small,
In  a half painted frame,
The  wood wouldn't stain,
And  I hope that reminds you,
Of  the part you couldn't change in me,
 If you push me I'll fall,
 If you pull me I'll drown,
 If you're gonna be nailin' me down,
 I won't  rise  again
 I scratched your car,
 Where the bird left a stain,
 But I only wanted to help you see straight,
 But like a half broken moon,
 Sooner than soon,
 I was up on your wall,
 Smaller than small,
 In a half painted frame,
 Where the wood wouldn't stain,
 And I hope that reminds you,
 Of the part you couldn't change in me,
 If you push me I'll fall,
 If you pull me I'll drown,
 If you're gonna be nailin' me down,
 I won't rise again
 I won't rise again
I'm  not  God,  I'm not God,
 I love you but I'm not God...

I only wanted it to help it [G]see [D]strai[C/G]ght,
But lik[C/B]e a ha[Am7]lf broken moon,
[D]Sooner than soon,
[Am7]I was up on your wall,
[D]Smaller than small,
[Am7]In a half painted frame,
[D]The wood wouldn't stain,
[Am7]And I hope that reminds you,
[D]Of the part you couldn't change in me,                [G]                     [D]                           [C/G]

I [C/B]won't r[Am7]ise again [D]

I scratched your car,
Where the bird left a stain,
But I only wanted to help you see straight,
But like a half broken moon,
Sooner than soon,
I was up on your wall,
Smaller than small,
In a half painted frame,
Where the wood wouldn't stain,
And I hope that reminds you,
Of the part you couldn't change in me,

If you push me I'll fall,
If you pull me I'll drown,
If you're gonna be nailin' me down,
I won't rise again
I won't rise again

[G]I'm no[D]t God,[C/G] I'm not God,
I love you but I'm not God...
