My name is Luka
C D
I live on the
second floor
G D
I live upstairs
from you
C D
Yes I think
you've seen me before
Em D Em
If you hear
something late at night
D C
Some kind of
trouble, some kind of fight
D C
Just don't ask
me what it was
D C
Just don't ask
me what it was
D G
Just don't ask
me what it was
I think it's
because I'm clumsy
I try not to
talk too loud
Maybe it's
because I'm crazy
I try not to
act too proud
They only hit
you until you cry
And after that
you don't ask why
You just don't
argue anymore
You just don't
argue anymore
You just don't
argue anymore
Yes I think I'm
OK
I walked into
the door again
Well, if you
ask that's what I'll say
And it's not
your business anyway
I guess I'd like
to be alone
With nothing
broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask
me how I am
Just don't ask
me how I am

By the way, I
didn't work this song out. A friend did.
