Intro: G Am Em (x2)

Verse:
G                            Am                   Em
You're on your own my little nightmare you cannot stay here
Em
It's far too bright for you
G                       Am              Em
If they attack you just lay there, play dead dear
Em
It's your only hope of pulling through
G               Am                      Em   
The seconds may seem like a lifetime, a dream recurring
Em
A dream that can't come true
G        Am            Em                            C  
And they pin it all on you after all you've been put through

Chorus:
Em              C                  G                   D
"Sadie G. she's crazy see?" That's what the whitecoats say
       Em               C            G        D 
Now Ms Susan A., you're losing every opportunity to put us all away

G Am Em (x2)

Verse 2:
Now run along my little nightmare your job is done here
You scared 'em all to death
If they revive them just sit there
Just smile dear make them grateful for every breath
The sentence may seem like a lifetime of scream 
That's curdling the blood they found on you
And your knives & clothing too
Charlie's broken .22

Chorus

and then...
          Em                 C                  G              D
Well they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way
        Em                   C                    G                D
But you bound and gagged you shot and stabbed you tried to set 'em free

But they've thrown away the key

G Em C D (x4)

G   Em     C     D
Whoooooooooooooooa! (etc.)
