[Verse 1: ]

C# minorC#m                A augmentedA    E MajorE
Well I don't feel better when I'm fucking around
C# minorC#m                A augmentedA      E MajorE
And I don't write better when I'm stuck in the ground, so don't
C# minorC#m              A augmentedA      E MajorE
Teach me a lesson cause I've already learned
C# minorC#m                 A augmentedA       E MajorE
Yeah the sun will be shining and my children will burn
    C# minorC#m  A augmentedA      E MajorE
Oh the heart beats in its cage

[Instrumental]

E MajorE -- optional bass notes climb up from E MajorE to E/F#E/F# E/G#

[Verse 2:]

C# minorC#m                A augmentedA       E MajorE
I don't want what you want I don't feel what you feel
    C# minorC#m            A augmentedA     E MajorE
See I'm stuck in this city but I belong in a field
      C# minorC#m           A augmentedA      E MajorE
Whoa we gets left, left, left, left, left, left, left,
     C# minorC#m               A augmentedA    E MajorE
Now it's three in the morning and you're eating alone

    C# minorC#m  A augmentedA      E~
Oh the heart beats in its cage?


[Bridge:]

E MajorE                  A augmentedA BB A augmentedA [A/G#/F#]
All our friends, they're laughing at us
E MajorE        A augmentedA      BB   A augmentedA [A/G#/F#]
All the ones you love you mistrust
E MajorE      A augmentedA      BB  A augmentedA [A/G#/F#]
Help me I am not quite myself
E MajorE          A augmentedA      BB    C minorCm [rapid burst]
Look around there's no one else left

[Verse 3:]

C# minorC#m             A augmentedA         E MajorE
I went to the concert and I fought through the crowd
    C# minorC#m           A augmentedA         E MajorE
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around
       C# minorC#m           A augmentedA    E MajorE
Oh I get left, left, left, left, left, left, left
    C# minorC#m
And I'm sorry you were thinking that I
    A augmentedA     E MajorE
would steal your fire

   C# minorC#m  A augmentedA       E MajorE
Oh the heart beats in its cage
     C# minorC#m  A augmentedA       E MajorE
OH-oh the heart be-eats in its cage
