Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
D/C         C                     D/C
Children in bloom, cooking in the sun
              C
Waiting for a room of our own
D/C                  C
Leave my sister alone

She doesn't deserve this
    D/C                    C
She is a flower and I am a flower
                 Am7
And we are all alone

Chorus:
   G                  D    Cadd9 Am7
I gotta get out on my own
  G                      D        Cadd9          Am7
I gotta get up from this waiting, waiting at home
  G                     D
I gotta get out of this sunlight
     Cadd9      Am7
It's melting my bones
  G                      D                Cadd9
I gotta get up from this slumber and just get myself home


Verse 2:
D/C                      C
All these wasted dreams
                        D/C
Just waiting for the sun to open
      C
To open up my heart to anyone
D/C           C
Bring me some rain
               D/C
Because I'm dying, I'm dying
            C                      Am7
And I can't get this damn thing closed again


Chorus:
   G                  D    Cadd9 Am7
I gotta get out on my own
  G                      D        Cadd9          Am7
I gotta get up from this waiting, waiting at home
  G                     D
I gotta get out of this sunlight
     Cadd9      Am7
It's melting my bones
  G                      D                Cadd9
I gotta get up from this slumber and just get myself home

Verse 3:
D/C                        C
Where's the fun house this year?
        D/C                             C
The fairground's deserted and the skies don't seem as near
    D/C                C
But Nicole's my oldest friend
        D/C                             C                  Am7
But the altar is empty and she'll never be a little girl again


Chorus:
   G                  D    Cadd9 Am7
I gotta get out on my own
  G                      D        Cadd9          Am7
I gotta get up from this waiting, waiting at home
  G                     D
I gotta get out of this sunlight
     Cadd9      Am7
It's melting my bones
  G                      D                Cadd9
I gotta get up from this slumber and just get myself
