"NOT THE DOCTOR" - Alanis Morissette

Verse

(E thru-out verse, with occasional hammer-on to Esus4) I don't want to be the filler if the void is solely yours I don't want to be your glass of single malt whiskey Hidden in the bottom drawer I don't want to be the bandage if the wound is not mine Lend me some fresh air I don't want to be adored for what I merely represent to you I don't want to be your baby sitter You're a very big boy now I don't want to be your mother I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months Show me the back door

Chorus

G A E Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6, well I G A E Already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh G A E Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom, you see it's F#m Am7 D E Too much to ask for and I am not the doctor

Verse

(E thru-out verse, with occasional hammer-on to Esus4) I don't want to be the sweeper of the eggshells that you up walk upon I don't want to be your other half I believe that 1 and 1 make 2 I don't want to be your food or the light from the fridge on your face at midnight Hey what are you hungry for I don't want to be the glue that holds your pieces together I don't want to be your idol see this pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights I don't want to be lived through A vicarious occasion, please open the window (Repeat chorus) (E thru-out verse, with occasional hammer-on to Esus4) I don't want to live on someday when my motto is next week I don't want to be responsible for your fractured heart and its wounded beat I don't want to be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhaling What do you thank me What do you thank me for (Repeat chorus - then end on a slow, upstroked E chord) Suggested chords: E G A F#m Am7 D Esus4
