Am7  E7sus4  E7  Am7

Verse:
Am7                              E7sus4
We sprawl out on the bed or we lean against the wall
E7                                  Am7
Down among the drags out where the yellow spiders crawl
Am7                             E7sus4
The telephone is broken and the drapes have all been closed
E7                                Am7
Hands up who doesn't know exactly where this story goes

Chorus:
C/B            Em7               A5
I'm gonna kill everybody in this room
C/B            Em7               A5
I'm gonna kill everybody in this room

Bridge:
Am7   E7sus4   E7   Am7

Verse:
Am7                            E7sus4
How has is come to this well I haven't got a clue
E7                                    Am7
You're looking up at me and us two glowering down at you
Am7                             E7sus4
Wind shakes the palm trees with an escalating fury
E7                            Am7
Face the judge or take your chances with the jury


Chorus:
C/B            Em7               A5
I'm gonna kill everybody in this room
C/B            Em7               A5
I'm gonna kill everybody in this room

Am7                              E7sus4
Lets have a little music on this hazy afternoon
E7                                       Am7
Lets hope the tension in here finds its resolution soon
Am7                      E7sus4
Radio on the windowsill, old white moon above
E7                               Am7
God watches over children and he cares for fools in love

C/B            Em7               A5
I'm gonna kill everybody in this room
C/B            Em7               A5
I'm gonna kill everybody in this room
