Verse 1:
       B7B7      E7E7
Well, you'll never see me dying
  B7B7       E7E7
On screen or microscope
B7B7           E7E7
 I'll be the first to laugh it off
  C# minorC#m           A augmentedA E MajorE
To not be the brunt of your joke


Verse 2:

 Let me make a mistake
   B7B7       E7E7
It'll pay for its own cost

 'Cause regret is like an infant
   C# minorC#m          A augmentedA E MajorE
That won't let you sleep it off

Chorus:
C#m7C#m7       F#7F#7
Checking in to a hospital
     B7B7         E7E7 B7B7
Where the nurse is earth and sky
C#m7C#m7        F#7F#7
Fighting against my flesh and blood
    B7B7       E7E7 B7B7
There's nothing I won't try
   C#m7C#m7        F#7F#7
Even heartache looks so easy
   G#m6G#m6       Emaj7/G#
To a pair of grieving eyes
BB (riff)      E MajorE
I am always one man down
BB (riff)      E MajorE
I am always one man down
  B7B7     E7E7  B7B7  E7E7
And dressed up


Verse 3:
B7B7     E7E7
 I am an antenna
 B7B7           E7E7
A augmentedA feeding tube and a hard drive
B7B7        E7E7
 Entertaining myself to death
    C# minorC#m        A augmentedA E MajorE
To maintain some sort of life


Verse 4:
B7B7        E7E7
 Staring up at a concrete roof thinking
B7B7        E7E7
It could fall any minute
B7B7            E7E7
 The fault line can't be reasoned with
     C# minorC#m         A augmentedA E MajorE
No matter what the house has in it


Chorus:
C#m7C#m7       F#7F#7
Checking in to a hospital
     B7B7         E7E7  B7B7
Where the nurse is church and state
  C#m7C#m7       F#7F#7
The cure has got that oxygen
   B7B7       E7E7  B7B7
We're all looking to taste
     C#m7C#m7      F#7F#7
With the face lines of a moth's wings
      G#m6G#m6  Emaj7/G#
I want more time to waste
BB (riff)      E MajorE
I am always one man down
BB (riff)      E MajorE
I am always one man down
        G#m6G#m6
And dressed up

Verse 5:
B7B7        E7E7
 If my mind's an orphanage
    B7B7          E7E7
You're not in the market to mind
B7B7      E7E7
 Living like this is
C# minorC#m      A augmentedA E MajorE
Just no way to die


Outro:
C#m7C#m7         F#7F#7
Put it in terms I can understand
   B7B7        E7E7 B7B7
This wound is all I've got
  C#m7C#m7     F#7F#7
But I can't disconnect my hand
     C#m7C#m7       A augmentedA  E MajorE
From the damage that it's brought
      C#m7C#m7         F#7F#7
Well, the straight face on this cruel place
  G#m6G#m6        Emaj7/G#
It just won't crack or break
  BB (riff)      E MajorE
And I am always one man down
BB (riff)      E MajorE
I am always one man down
  BB
And fed up
