(Intro)
Em  G  A2  C 2x

(Verse 1)
Em             G
Waking up dead inside of my head 
A2                  C
Will never never do there is no med 
Em          G       A2  C
No medicine to take

Em                G
I've had a chance to be insane 
A2          C
Asylum from the falling rain 
Em           G             A2  C
I've had a chance to break

Em  G  A2  C 2x

(Verse 2)
Em          G
It's so bad it's got to be good 
A2              C             
Mysterious girl misunderstood 
Em             G            A2  C
Dressed like a wedding cake

Em            G
Any other day and I might play 
A2                  C              
A funeral march for Bonnie Brae 
Em          G         A2
Why try and run away

(Chorus)
C            G
Slow cheetah come 
A2
Before my forest 
C               G  A2
Looks like it's on today 
C            G             
Slow cheetah come 
A2
It's so euphoric 
C         G         A2
No matter what they say 

Em  G  A2  C 2x

(Verse 3)
Em            G
I know a girl she worked in a store 
   A2                 C
She knew not what her life was for 
Em              G        A2  C
She barely knew her name 

Em
They tried to tell her 
G
She would never be 
A2
As happy as the girl 
C
In the magazine 
Em            G             A2
She bought it with her pay 

(Chorus)

(Verse 4)
Em             G
Everyone has so much to say 
A2
They talk talk talk 
C
Their lives away 
Em         G        A2  C
Don't even hesitate

Em
Walking on down 
G
To the burial ground 
A2
It's a very old dance 
C
With a merry old sound 
Em              G          A2  C
Looks like it's on today

G A2 4x

(Chorus) 2x

Hold A2 Then

(Outro)
C G A2 16x
