When I woke up this mornin',   things were lookin' bad
F                   C               G        F      C
  seemed like total silence was the only friend I had
G                   F                 C       F   C
  a bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down... and won

        G                 C                 F     G   C
Ah, but fortunately... I have the key to escape reality

Chorus: (Change to 3/4 time, and slow down to   0 bpm)
            F                      C
and you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
         G                      C
it don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
          F                            C
won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone

    F                       C             G    F          C
sometimes it seems like the bottom is the only place I've been
G                  F              C         F    C
  chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end

and all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen

     F              C                G      F        C
just tryin' to get away from all the ears inside the walls
G                  F                  C          F    C
dreamed the police heard everything I thought... what then?
