Intro:
G/C D/B A A4 A

VERSE 1:
G/C             D/B
  The sun is a light bulb

A            A4     A
 A candle's a treat

G/C                        D/B
  The curtains stay closed now

A            A4    A
 On my little retreat

G/C                 D/B
 And I'll only take medicine

A                    A4   A
 If it's followed by sweets

G/C             D/B
 A sickly pink liquid

A                A4     A
 That puts me to sleep

CHORUS 1:
A D9 C5  A D9 Bb5

A D9  C5
        My head beats a better way

A D9  bB5
        Tomorrow a better day

VERSE 2:
G/C                D/B
 And I can watch TV

A
 While I'm wrapped up in bed

G/C                    D/B
 And mother makes sure that

A
 I'm watered and fed

G/C                  D/B
 My best from school will

A
 Come over and stare

G/C          D/B
 At me in my bubble

A
 Of germified air

CHORUS 2:
A D9  C5
        My head beats a better way

A D9  Bb5
        Tomorrow a better day

BRIDGE 1:
D9               bB           A
 When I'm asleep the smoke fills me

D9       bB                      A
 I feel the heat, my illness leaves me

WIERD BRIDGE THINGY:
A [ A5 A9 A A4 ] A
  [  played  fast  ]

CHORUS 3:
A D9  C5
        My head beats a better way

A D9  bB5
        Tomorrow a better day

BRIDGE 2:
D9               Bb           A
 When I'm asleep the smoke fills me

D9       Bb                      A
 I feel the heat, my illness leaves me

SOLO 2: [in Am / C ]

VERSE 3/ OUTRO:
G/C             D/B
  The sun is a light bulb

A            A4     A
 A candle's a treat

G/C                        D/B
  The curtains stay closed now

A            A4    A
 On my little retreat

G/C          D/B
 But after a while

A                   A4 A
 The noise from the street

G/C                D/B
 Is making me wish I

A               A4 A
 Was back on my feet
