Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

♫ Intro: 
Bm  A  D
Bm  A  D


♫ Verse 1:
Bm             A            D
Blueprints for your great escape,
Bm            A        D     G
Stacks in the attic of video games,
Bm         A          D
Shark in a jar on the sill,
Em           A         D              G
Breathing formaldehyde in through his gills.
G
Ooh, ooh.


♫ Verse 2:
Bm          A          D
Evenings we spent in July,
Bm           A         D         G
Pointing our telescope up to the sky,
              Bm      A             D
And when we'd say our prayers every night,
     Em           A          D             G
We'd ask for someone to come down from the lights,
Em            G
Take us away, take us away.

♫ Chorus: 
N.C.      D                      A
When he'd come home, full to the brim,
                G                           D          A
You know what I know, there's no talking to him, oo-oo-oooh,
Em           A   Bm
Dungeons and dragons, ooh,
Em           A   Bm  A  D
Dungeons and dragons.


♫ Verse 3:
Bm         A             D
Inside the game, you're okay,
Bm             A            D             G
Longswords and spellcasting keeps all the bad away,
        Bm            A            D
And the monsters look how monsters do,
         Em           A               D             G
Not like neighborhood kids with their hands full of rocks for you,
    Em           A            D            G
And not like the grownups who should be protecting you.


♫ Chorus: 
          D                      A
When he'd come home, full to the brim,
                G                           D          A
You know what I know, there's no talking to him, oo-oo-oooh,
D                  A
Oh no, go hide yourself,
                     G                D              A
You know there'll be hell to pay, and you're the one paying,
    G                           D          A
But soon as you're done, we can go back to playing,
Em           A   Bm
Dungeons and dragons.


♫ Interlude: 
D  C  G  A


♫ Bridge: 
D                         C
Broken but who knows what for,
G                       A
Lean in to listen for a key in the door.
D                         C
Broken but who knows what for,
G                       A
Lean in to listen for a key in the door.


♫ Interlude: 
G  Em  A
G  Em  A


♫ Outro: 
      D                      A
Now I come home, full to the brim,
                 G                          D          A
It's hard to not feel like I'm some part of him, oo-oo-oooh,
D                        A
Oh no, can't hide from myself,
                     G                D           A
I know there's still hell to pay, now I'm the one paying,
      G                      D          A
If we ever got done we could go back to playing,
Em           A   Bm
Dungeons and dragons, ooh,
Em           A   Bm
Dungeons and dragons.
