Count It Out Loud

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Odd time but I move like it's easy

Chorus

Count it out loud

Count it again

Seven then five then we start it over

Say it out loud

Say it again

I don't need a metronome to find my corner

Count it out loud

Count it out loud

Verse 1

I sketch my day in crooked little bars

Pencil marks that lean and never line up straight

Every measure bends a little wide

I've been fitting myself inside a shape that won't behave

Pre-Chorus

So I stop apologizing

For the rhythm that I carry

I stop apologizing

For the way I move

Chorus

Count it out loud

Count it again

Seven then five then we start it over

Say it out loud

Say it again

I don't need a metronome to find my corner

Count it out loud

Count it out loud

Verse 2

My sister keeps a tidy kind of time

She taps her foot in even little rows

I'm the extra beat nobody asked for

I'm the note that nobody expects but everybody knows

Pre-Chorus

And I won't apologize

For the pattern that I follow

I won't apologize

For the way I move

Chorus

Count it out loud

Count it again

Seven then five then we start it over

Say it out loud

Say it again

I don't need a metronome to find my corner

Count it out loud

Count it out loud

Bridge

Slow it down

Break it down

Take it down to just the one

Then the two

Then the three

Build it back and let it run

Chorus

Count it out loud

Count it again

Seven then five then we start it over

Say it out loud

Say it again

I don't need a metronome to find my corner

Count it out loud

Count it out loud

(Count it out loud)

(Count it out loud)
