D
Oh what am I waiting for?
  Bm                      G?
A spell to be cast or for it to be broken?
D?
At the very last!
     Bm                                G                   D
Some white ghost from my past comes to split me wide open, oh.?		
                               Bm                 G?
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

?  D	?
I thought it was safe for me and my own,
        Bm                          G    D?
I began hearing these voices in the dial tone.
D                                                           Bm  G  D
And they come to me now, though I dismember my phone.?		    
             D?
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." ?

D               Bm              G  D    ?
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!
D               Bm              G  D?
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!??

  D?
I thought it was safe once the seed had been sown,
     Bm                      G    D?
As a child I aspired to be a superhero.
      D?
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.?

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

D               Bm              G  D    ?
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!
D               Bm              G  D?
Ooooo-OoOOOooOOooOOO-OOOOooOoooOOooo!??

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

D?
Oh what am I waiting for?
  Bm                      G                D?
A spell to be cast or for it to be broken!?
D?
At the very last!
      Bm                               G                   D?
Some white ghost from my past comes to split me wide open, oh!?     
     D?
If I hold out my hand there,
Bm?
Nothing at all!
    G?
And Nothings a token!?

A                        Bm               G?
I will be good though my body be broken, (I will be good though my body be broken)?
I will be good though my body be broken, (I will be good though my body be broken)?
I will be good though my body be broken, oh-oh-ohhh (I will be good though my body be broken)?

I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-oohh!(I will be good though my body be broken)?
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-oohhh(I will be good though my body be broken)?

A         Bm        A          G?
I will be good, may I want for nothing at all.
