D
Oh what am I waiting for?
  Bm                      Gâ?¨
A spell to be cast or for it to be brokenâ?¨
Dâ?¨
At the very last!
     Bm                                G                   D
Some white ghost from my past comes to split me wide open, oh.â?¨		
                               Bm                 Gâ?¨
If I bandage my eyes, will you press in my hand a small simple token?
A                       Bm                  G
I was born deaf or else you've never spoken.

D       D6      Bm      G       D

â?¨  D	â?¨
I thought it was safe for me and my own,
        Bm                          G    Dâ?¨
I began hearing these voices in the dial tone.
D                                                           Bm  G  D
And they come to me now, though I dismember my phone.â?¨		    
             Dâ?¨
They say you want to hear something that you already know,
      Bm                             G          D
If it comes from above, but this one comes from below.
                  D                                         Bm  G  D
It says, "You are sleeping together, but you will die alone." â?¨

D               Bm              G  D    â?¨
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!
D               Bm              G  Dâ?¨
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!��

  Dâ?¨
I thought it was safe once the seed had been sown,
     Bm                      G    Dâ?¨
As a child I aspired to be a superhero.
      Dâ?¨
Now I live with the corpses for the lives I let go,
       Bm                          G               D
Well I know you all know how these things start to show.â?¨

          D                             Dâ?¨
I've been trying to make myself better,
          Bm                            Dâ?¨ D
So I can fare the fare foul weather.
          Bm                            Dâ?¨DD
I write a song like a prison letter.
          G                          Bmâ?¨
I write a song maybe to make me feel better,
Gâ?¨
It won't break free my fetters.â?¨
Gâ?¨
oooooooooOOOOOOO-OOOHHHHHH!!!â?¨

D               Bm              G  D    â?¨
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!
D               Bm              G  Dâ?¨
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!��

â?¨  Dâ?¨
I know what came after, but what happened before?
        Bm                     G      Dâ?¨
I began making memories at the age of four.
       D                                                                â?¨
Well I learned to use words,I got jealous and bored.â?¨		 
             Bm                      G       Dâ?¨
Soon I'll be passing out cold on the kitchen floor.
             Bm                      G       Dâ?¨
Soon I'll be passing out cold on the kitchen floor.â?¨
          D                          â?¨
Singing, "When am I gonna feel better?
       Bm                   Dâ?¨
I said when am I gonna feel better?
       Bm                   Dâ?¨
I said when am I gonna feel better?
            Gâ?¨
I have been patient for a long time now.
          D                          â?¨
I've been patient for a long time now.
          Bm                 Dâ?¨
I've been patient for a long time now.
          Bm                 Dâ?¨
I've been patient for a long time now.
                 G    Dâ?¨
And I will never be a younger man now.."��

Oh what am I waiting for?
  Bm                      G                Dâ?¨
A spell to be cast or for it to be broken!â?¨

At the very last!
      Bm                               G                   Dâ?¨
Some white ghost from my past comes to split me wide open, oh!â?¨     
     Dâ?¨
If I hold out my hand there,
Bmâ?¨
Nothing at all!
    Gâ?¨
And Nothings a token!â?¨

A                        Bm               Gâ?¨
I will be good though my body be broken, (I will be good though my body be broken)â?¨
