E5              G5              D5                  C5 
I was gone for fourteen days, I could have been  gone for more; 
E5                G5              D5                C5 
Held up in intensive care ward, Lying on the     floor. 
E5              G5              D5                  C5   
I was gone for all those days,But I was not all a-lone; 
E5                     G5             D5            C5      C-riff 
I made friends with a lot of peo-ple  in the danger zone 
 

C5        D5        E5             C5        D5       E5 
See my  lone-ly life un-fold    I see it ev-ry   day 
C5        D5    E5       A5         C5        D5       E5 
See my only mind ex-plode,    since I've gone a-way

E5                    G5            D5               C5 
I think I lost some weight there, And I'm sure I need some rest; 
E5              G5              D5                   C5 
Sleeping don't come very easy  In a straight white vest. 
E5                    G5                D5                     C5 
Sure like to see that little children, She's only four years old ole 
E5                     G5               D5                  C5     C-riff 
I'd give her back all her play things even even the one I stole 
 

C5        D5        E5             C5        D5       E5 
See my  lone-ly life un-fold     I see it ev-ry  day 
C5        D5    E5       A5         C5        D5       E5 
See my  lone-ly mind ex-plode,    when I've gone in-sane

E5              G5              D5                  C5 
  (I wanna get out of here,         I've  wanna  get out of here.) 
E5              G5              D5                  C5 
  (I gotta get out of here,         I've  got to get out of here.) 
E5              G5              D5                  C5 
  (I gotta get out of here,         I've  got to get out of here.) 
 

C5        D5        E5             C5        D5        E5 
See my  lone-ly life un-fold     I see it ev-ry   day 
C5        D5    E5       A5         C5        D5       E5 
See my  lone-ly mind ex-plode,    blow up in my face

E5                   G5             D5               C5       
I grabbed my hat I got my coat  I ran into the street  
E5                   G5               D5                     C5 
I saw a man that was chok-ing there   I guess he couldn't breathe 
E5                         G5              D5                  C5    
Said to my-self, this is ver-y strange,  I'm glad it wasn't me; 
E5                   G5               D5                     C5 
But now I hear those sirens call-ing  And so I am not     free  

(I didn't want to be) 

(I didn't want to be) 

(I didn't want to be) 
 

C5        D5        E5             C5        D5        E5 
See my  lone-ly life un-fold       
C5        D5    E5       A5         C5        D5       E5 
See my lone-ly mind ex-plode,    blow up in my face
