Verse 1:
                    Am                                  F
I don't live in California, I'll inform you, that's not where I reside
         C                               Em
I'm just tenant, paying rent inside this body and I
        Am                                    F
Got two windows and those windows, well I'll call them my eyes
         C                                   Em
I'm just going where the wind blows, I don't get to decide

Pre-Chorus:
Am                         F
Sometimes I think to much, yeah, I get so caught up
C                      Em
I'm always stuck in my head
Am                     F
I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
C                          Em
Took all the sheets off my bed


Chorus:
       Am                    F                        C
Then I tied up my linen with five stripes of ribbon I found
           Am
Scaled the side of the building
  F                          C
I ran to the hills till they found me
                Am
And they put me back in my cell
F              C
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
           Am                   F                   C
I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out


Verse 2:
        Am                             F
So they tranquillized me, analyzed me, threw me back in my cage
          C                         Em
Then they tied me to an IV, told me I was insane
      Am                  F
I'm a prisoner, a visitor inside of my brain
       C                      Em
And no matter what I do, they try to keep me in chains


Pre-Chorus:
Am                         F
Sometimes I think too much, yeah, I get so caught up
C
I'm always stuck in my head
Am                     F
I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
C
Took all the sheets off my bed


Chorus:
       Am                    F                        C
Then I tied up my linen with five stripes of ribbon I found
           Am
Scaled the side of the building
  F                          C
I ran to the hills till they found me
                Am
And they put me back in my cell
F              C
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
           Am                   F                   C
I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out


Bridge:
     Am                 F
Said even if it's true, no matter what I do
C                   Em
I'm never gonna escape
Am                       F
I won't give up on hope, secure another rope
C                   Em
And try for another day
     Am                 F
Said even if it's true, no matter what I do
C               Em
I'm never gonna escape
Am                       F
I won't give up on hope, secure another rope
C                   Em
And try for another day


Chorus:
       Am                    F                        C
Then I tied up my linen with five stripes of ribbon I found
           Am
Scaled the side of the building
  F                          C
I ran to the hills till they found me
                Am
And they put me back in my cell
F              C
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
           Am                   F                   C                   Em      A
I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out
