Intro: Verse You know I love to be an outsider even though they try to drag me in This is where it begins You know that we are nothing like them, don’t smile at their jokes or toe the line God it must be dull on the inside Pre Chorus I’ve been waiting for something to happen But I don’t know what something is And trouble always finds me. It always seems to excite me. So if we’re gonna try let’s go all the way. We’ll take it to the wire now ‘Cos even when we die, we’ll still be Oh, nothing but outsiders, baby, you and me. Verse You know I put my back into it I severed all my ties, such sacrifice to spark a light off Mr. Nice. Pre Chorus I’ve been waiting for something to happen But I don’t know what something is And trouble always finds me. It never fails to entice me To entice me So if we’re gonna try let’s go all the way. We’ll take it to the wire now ‘Cos even when we die, we’ll still be Oh, nothing but outsiders, baby, you and me. Guitar Solo I’ve been waiting for something to happen but I don’t know what something is I’m still waiting for something to happen. There must be so much more than this Bridge So long my friend Everyone you love will leave you in the end. So long my friend Everyone you love will leave you in the end So long my friend (So long my friend) Oh if we’re gonna die let’s go all the way We’ll take it to the wire now ‘Cos even if we try, we’ll still be nothing but outsiders, baby, you and me. ‘Cos even if we die, we’ll still be nothing but outsiders, baby, you and me.
