Verse 1:
                                Gb
I heard you talking 'till the morning
                         B
Heavy whispers from the next room
               Ebm
You say it's never your intention
     Db                    B
And I'm just in a bad mood
                          Gb                         B
There was a possible connection on the table for a second
                       Ebm
Then she made such an entrance
                      Db
Can't stand all this tension
       B
Can you?
 
Pre-Chorus 1:
      Gb                      B
Then we cross paths by the bathroom
     Ebm         Db                    B
But I'd just rather be out of the picture
          Gb               B
And I'll do my upmost to talk to you
    Ebm       Db
But I just wanna be out—
        B
I just wanna be out of the picture
 
Chorus:
              Gb
And, no, I'm not just gonna lay here and bite my tongue
   B
I only wanna be here when she's gone
 Ebm       Db                     B
-Ooh-ooh-ooh- The walls are way too thin
           Gb
Oh, I get down, I get down when she gets you high
      B
I'm bored, I'm ignored, I'm being out of my mind
 Ebm       Db                     B
-Ooh-ooh-ooh- The walls are way too thin
                   Gb
The walls are way too thin
 
Verse 2:
Gb
You're blowing smoke rings in the corridors, I feel so cold
B
How come it rains inside?
 
The house is full, but I'm alone
Ebm                                  Db
With all the xxxx that still needs fixing, out of my control
B
It takes a hold of me
B
It takes a hold of me
 
Pre-Chorus 2:
     Gb                     B
The same old sad songs I cling to
       Ebm       Db
'Cause I just wanna be out—
         B
I just wanna be out of the picture
 
Chorus:
      Gb
And, no, I'm not just gonna lay here and bite my tongue
   B
I only wanna be here when she's gone
 Ebm       Db                      B
-Ooh-ooh-ooh- The walls are way too thin
           Gb
Oh, I get down, I get down when she gets you high
     B
I'm bored, I'm ignored, I'm being out of my mind
 Ebm       Db                      B
-Ooh-ooh-ooh- The walls are way too thin
                   Gb
The walls are way too thin
 
Bridge:
 
-Ooh-ooh-ooh-
              Gb
And, no, I'm not just gonna lay here and bite my tongue
