Verse 1:
Bbmaj7
Sorry, sorry I don't think that I
   Gm7
Can make it to the plans we made
             Ebmaj7
Something came up, I'm bogged down

Got so much work that I just found
  Eb7
a trip outside I can't allow
Bbmaj7
Maybe, maybe if I planned ahead
     Gm7
I'd feel a little more at ease
Ebmaj7
When I talk about my plans and why

I can't come out tonight
  Eb7
I laugh when I fall for my own lies...

Chorus:
                Bbmaj7
I can't leave my room -I can't leave my room-
              Gm7
I've got so many things I've gotta do
Ebmaj7
Checklist on the wall -The wall-
  Eb7
Oh you seem rather tall
                 Bbmaj7
I can't leave my room -I can't leave my room-
          Gm7
I made a daily schedule yesterday
          Eb7
Even if I missed the first thing on the list
        Ebmaj7
And the hundred today got-to-do bits
Eb7
I'm sure tomorrow's the day
                   Bbmaj7
I can't leave my room...

Instrumental: Bbmaj7 Gm7 Ebmaj7 Eb7

Verse 2:
Bbmaj7
You know, you know that I'm gonna try
      Gm7
But it seems that I've wasted time
     Ebmaj7
See I lack in planning expertise

But excel in procrastinating
Eb7
It's all on me
Bbmaj7
Please don't think that I don't care at all
    Gm7
If I could I'd be out that door
     Ebmaj7
But you know that I've gotta stay

'Cause I've got too much on my plate
Eb7
I said that yesterday...

Chorus:
                Bbmaj7
I can't leave my room -I can't leave my room-
              Gm7
I've got so many things I've gotta do
Ebmaj7
Checklist on the wall -The wall-
  Eb7
Oh you seem rather tall
                 Bbmaj7
I can't leave my room -I can't leave my room-
          Gm7
I made a daily schedule yesterday
          Eb7
Even if I missed the first thing on the list
        Ebmaj7
And the hundred today got-to-do bits
Eb7
I'm sure tomorrow's the day
                   Bbmaj7
I can't leave my room...
                   Gm7
I swear I swear I can't leave my room
      Ebmaj7
Lah dah dee dah -Lah dah dee dah-

Lah dah dee dah -Lah dah dee dah-
Eb7
Oh oh
