D  Em9/A  Bmb6

Verse 1:
D                 G        (G/F#)
  I'm a kid in a candy store
Em                A7   A7sus4
  I'm a bull in a china shop
D                 Bm
  I'm a tired old metaphor
       G             A7
  For everything you can't afford
       Em            A7              D  Em9/A  Bmb6
  And everything you can't afford to be

Verse 2:
D                 G        (G/F#)
  I'm a public embarrassment
Em                A7   A7sus4
  I'm a bottle of diet poison
D                 Bm
  I'm a walking advertisement
       G            A7
  For everything I never meant
       Em           A7            D  Em9/A  Bmb6
  And everything I never meant to be

Chorus:
D       Em9/A  Bmb6
I can't hear a thing
       D            Em9/A  Bmb6
'Cause I've stopped listening

Verse 3:
D                  G          (G/F#)
  I'm the reason I don't go out
Em                   A7      A7sus4
  I'm afraid I might tell me something
D                    Bm
  I'm the shadow of every doubt
G                      A7
  I'm the product this song's about
Em                     A7              D  Em9/A  Bmb6
  I'm the product this song's about to be

Chorus:
D       Em9/A  Bmb6
I can't hear a thing
       D            Em9/A  Bmb6
'Cause I've stopped listening
D       Em9/A  Bmb6
I can't hear a thing
       D            Em9/A  Bmb6
'Cause I've stopped listening

Bridge:
 G  Em       A7  A7sus4
       Every morning
 G  Em             A7  A7sus4
       Since I was born
          Bm           Asus2   G
It's been hard to look in the mirror
    Em          G       A7sus4
And see my face for the horns

Verse 4:
D                      G        (G/F#)
  All the fun that the law allows
Em                     A7       A7sus4
  All the fun but with half the meaning
D                    Bm
  Come on over, I'll show you how
G                            A7
  If you lived here you'd be home by now
Em                              A7               D  Em9/A  Bmb6
  If you still lived here you'd be home now with me

Chorus:
D       Em9/A  Bmb6
I can't hear a thing
       D            Em9/A  Bmb6
'Cause I've stopped listening
D       Em9/A  Bmb6
I can't hear a thing
       D            Em9/A  Bmb6
'Cause I've stopped listening
