Verse 1:
Gb     Abm
Let me out
         Gb             B
Of these mental ward confines
             E
So white and plain
Gb      Abm
Free my mind
        Gb                  B
From prescriptions that you write
            E     B
I'm not the same

Young kid with the see-through skin
        B    Gb  Abm   Ebm
All arteries and veins
Dbm             Gb
Spun out in the family car
          B    Gb E7
Trying to make my way
Dbm  Gb
Home

Chorus 1:
        Abm             Gb
Are you ready to put me under

'Cause I'm ready to go back home
         Abm                     Gb
I don't care what the doctors told me
           B                     E7
I spoke to Jesus on the telephone
          Abm                           Gb
He said, "Lace up your shoes and quit playing the blues"
          B                    E7
I'm gonna take me to a better place
          Abm                       Gb
Where the sun always shines and the light in your eyes
          B                     E7
Is always tended like a burning flame

Verse 2:
      Gb Abm     Gb              B
Write me up on a list of who was cured
             E
And what was slain
Gb     Abm            Gb               B
Like a glove with the blood of who you hurt
            E
I'm thrown away

Because I'm
Dbm                   Gb
Half gone, don't know what I'm on
          B     Gb  Abm    Ebm
My vision blurs and shakes
Db               Gb
You don't need a PhD
          B   Gb E7
To be the one to break
Dbm  Gb
Me

Chorus 2:
        Abm              Gb
Are you ready to call my mother
       B                 E7
And my father, my sister too
           Ab              Gb
'Cause I'm going to higher places

I'm gonna take me to a better place
          Abm                       Gb
Where the sun always shines and the light in your eyes
          B                          E7
Is always tended like a burning flame
          Ab
Where the sun always shines
        Gb
And the bells never chime
        B                   E7
And the undertaker stays away
