            C#m           A                B
i've got a dying urge to feel the way you do
               C#m
too close for comfort
          A             B
bed and breakfast in a spoon
               C#m                 A
the shortest breath of your young life
             B
a long walk home on friday night
        A          E                 B
you made one last stop at the store

             C#m             A                    B
so close to perfect swear to hell thought it was you
               C#m            A           B
this bouncing baby boy's now turning baby blue
               C#m             A
i've got your pictures on my walls
            E                        B
i've got a long list of calls i must make

to your existing family


Chorus
               A               E                 B
you had nine lives and one by one you chewed 'em up
            A                  E              B
your final coffin nail's been driven far too much
                 A                E            B
this won't take long you said i'm not going far
               Abm/E  Abm  A
go wait in the car
    B
go wait in the car

i often wonder what it feels like to be you
              C#m                A               B
a mess like this stuck on your hands with krazy glue
           C#m             A
ran outta time no kiss goodbye
              E                             B
wish i could learn to let this sleeping dog die

without lying to myself
