G                             Em
Well hush there'll be no more tonight
                           C
You can't work and I can't fight
                  G        D
Well that's just beautiful
G                              Em
But it's the way you hold your breath
                     C
That's scarin' me to death
                 G     D
Well that's your way, anyway, anyway


Em         C
If everybody talks
Em       C                   D  
We gotta listen to what they say

          C                D
There's a picture that I'm painting
        Em               G
And you know it won't be pretty
       C           D               Em
It's a song I give someone else to sing
       C        D            G    D   Em
It's a melody I stole from a bathroom wall
             C                D
And it's the words I hear the birds sing

G                                  Em
"I don't mean to pry but it's been said
                               C
That you've got Demons in your head"
              G   D 
I ask real casual
G                          Em
But it's the way I wear my frown
                             C
That only helps to bring you down
               G    D
Well that's my way, anyway, anyway


Em            C
And everybody talks
Em       C                 D  
We gotta make it make some sense

          C                D

That's scarin' you to death

Well that's our way, anyway, anyway, anyway



Em             C
Well everybody talks
Em      C           D  
People rarely say a word

          C                D
