Intro:
F minorFm
C#5C#5
So you just stand there
G#5G#5
With a dollar at your feet
F#5F#5
And you wait as I retreat
G#5G#5
To go get mine
C#5C#5
And when I get back
G#5G#5
You're still waiting silently
F#5F#5
Cause my mother's fast asleep
G#5G#5
Right next door
G#5G#5 C#5C#5
Yeah, I'm 26 and I still live with my parents
G#5G#5
Oh, I can't do laundry
F#5F#5
Christ, I can't do dishes
G#5G#5
What'll I do without you
C#5C#5
When your body fails you
G#5G#5
When nobody loves you
F#5F#5
All they do is miss you
G#5G#5
But they don't even care
G#G# C#C#
So be careful when you run downstairs
G#G#
Be careful who you talk to
F#F#
Or the wonderful way you walk
G#G#
You are like a magnet for all evil
C#5C#5
So you just stand there
G#5G#5
With a dollar at your feet
F#5F#5
And you wait as I retreat
G#5G#5
To go get mine
C#5C#5
And when I get back
G#5G#5
You're too terrified to speak
F#5F#5
And my brother's such a creep
G#5G#5
Even more
G#G# C#C#
Yeah, be careful when you run downstairs
G#G#
Be careful who you talk to
F#F#
Or the wonderful way you walk
G#G#
You are like a magnet for all evil
C#C#
Cause there's so much good inside you
G#G#
And I wish that I could hide you
F#F#
Some place no one could hurt you
G#G#
Where nobody could change you
C#5C#5
I'll lock you in my room
G#5G#5
And I'll tie you to the sheets
C#5C#5
Cause I could watch you sleep for weeks
G#5G#5
Oh, the things you'd never see
F#F#
If it were up to me
F#F# G#G# A#mA#m G#G#
F#F# G#G# A#mA#m G#G#
F#F#
Oh, I can't do laundry
G#G#
Christ, I can't do dishes
F#F#
What'll I do without you
G#G#
End on G#/C
