Gm                         Gm                     
Oh well oh well so here we stand But we stand for nothing 
Gm                      Gm                           Gm
My heart calls to me in my sleep How can I turn to it Cause I'm all 
                  Gm                          Gm 
locked up in this Dark place and I do not know My head aches warped and 
Gm
tied up I need to kill this pain 

Chorus
G                            C                  Bb 
My head won't leave my head alone And I don't believe it will 
    Am7               G                            C  
Til I'm dead and gone My head won't leave my head alone And I don't 
   Bb               Am7                Gm   Eb   F   C  Bb9  :| x6         
believe it will Til I'm six feet under ground 

Gm                           Gm                       Gm
How long I'm tied up My mind in knots my stomach reels In concern for 
                             Gm                            Gm
what I might do or What I've done It's got me living in fear Well I know 
      Gm                    Gm
these voices must Be my soul I've had enough I've had enough 
          Gm
Of being alone I've got no place to go 

Chorus
G     C           Bb    Am7             G    C            Bb
Ground In my grave Lying wired shut and quiet in my grave Leave me  
      Am7         Gm   Eb   F   C  Bb9  :| x6         
Leave it to me to waste      here 

Gm                                    Gm              Gm
So young here I am again Talking to myself A TV blares Oh man oh how I 
              Gm                                   Gm
wish I didn't smoke Or drink to reason with my head But sometimes this 
                Gm                               Gm 
thick confusion Grows until I cannot bare it all Needle to the vein 
                             Gm
Needle to the vein Take this needle from my vein my friend 

Chorus
G     C           Bb     Am7   G   C            Bb        Am7
Ground In my grave Lying lying cold in my grave Reason my reason Take my 
G             C          Bb           Am7                G     
head off this terror I'm fearing I'll come back I'll see My mind's all  
      C         Bb             Am7      G* C Bb             Am7     G
wiped clean The needle Make my great escape    I'll see the cold in time 
C      Bb   Am7         G  C    Bb   Am7    G  C   Bb Am7      G   
    My head leaves me behind My cold cold head        I see heaven
