Heart attack
E7          E7(add#11)
Jack-in-the-box
     E7           E7(add#11)
I've been here so long
    E7          E7(add#11)
I'm starting to rot
           Asus2           F/A
And you're taking my fear
             E7   E7(add#11)
Selling it in jars

(3x)
E7  E7(add#11)

Verse
E7          E7(add#11)
Back on the playground
   E7             E7(add#11)
My knee socks are bloody
E7         E7(add#11)
I need someone
   E7          E7(add#11)
To toss the confetti
       Asus2               F/A
At the ticker-tape parade
                 E7     E7(add#11)  E7  E7(add#11)
I'm throwing for myself

C           Dadd4(add9)
Look to the floor
    G6         G6/F#
She used to be pretty
C           Dadd4(add9)
Don't say a word
          G6         G6/F#
But she's drying out slowly
C            Dadd4(add9)
You have the answers
A7                   E7  E7(add#11)
I have the car keys___

Lightning rod
E7             E7(add#11)
Strapped to my shoulders
    E7                E7(add#11)
I'm searching through windows
    E7           E7(add#11)
For rain and for thunder
           Asus2               F/A
That could bring to a merciful end
               E7  E7(add#11)  E7  E7(add#11)
This overdrawn wait

Verse
E7     E7(add#11)
Carpet burns
E7       E7(add#11)
Up to my elbows
     E7            E7(add#11)
It's time that you learn
  E7             E7(add#11)
I guess I should tell you
         Asus2                 F/A
That the things you know about me
           E7   E7(add#11)  E7  E7(add#11)
Never were true

C           Dadd4(add9)
Look to the floor
  G6         G6/F#
I used to be pretty
C           Dadd4(add9)
Don't say a word
        G6         G6/F#
But I'm drying out quickly
C            Dadd4(add9)
You have the answers
A7                    E7  E7(add#11)
I have the car keys____
