Verse 1:
Ab5                     Bb5
  Spend the day in your bed taking medicine
Ab5                        Bb5
  If that's the only thing that keeps you calm
Ab5                 Bb5                   B5
  Well one of these days you've gotta get up
        C#5 Bb5
And get out
Ab5                      Bb5 
  There is a purpose for all of my sitting here
Ab5                  Bb5
  If you can't understand well you could
Ab5                  Bb5
  If you could just stretch your attention span
B5             C#5  Eb5
Now, for this song


Refrain:
Eb5 Ab5 B5          C#5               Eb5   
  I hope  that this is what you will want
         Ab5  B5            C#5             Eb5
Cause my throat will be the first thing to go
      Ab5 B5          C#5            Eb5  B5   C#5
And I hope  that some day I'll hear everyone say


Chorus 1:
   B5               F#5                           B5
Is that all you've got turn it up keep it coming
      B5            F#5                             B5
Cause I've got the words to keep the birds humming
             Ab5
Well there's gotta be something
        Eb5                C#5
There's gotta be something wrong
             Ab5
Well there's gotta be something
        Eb5                C#5
There's gotta be something wrong


Interlude: Ab5 - Bb5 (x3) B5 - C#5 - Bb5


Verse 2:
Ab5                      Bb5
  Spend your life with a pen and a microphone
Ab5                   Bb5
  You wrote down everything that you could
Ab5                Bb5  
  In case somebody gives them a second glance
B5            C#5  Bb5
Now for this long


(Repeat Refrain and Chorus 1)
