F#m G#m
I rode down
A
to the tracks
B
Thinking that
C#m G#m
they might sing
F#m
to me But they
G#m A
just stared back
B C#m
Broken trainless
G#m E E/G#
and black as night
F#m
Climbed out
G#m A
onto my roof
B
So I'd be a
C#m G#m
poet in the night
F#m G#m
Beat the walls
A
off my room
B C#m
I saw the big room
G#m
that is this life
G#m E
This is my condition
C#m E/G#
Naked and hysterical
A
Reaching to grab a
B
hand that I just
slapped back at
G#m E
This is my condition
C#m
Desperate alone
E/G#
Without an excuse
A
I try to explain
B
Christ what's the use?
F#m G#m
Read and I
felt so small
B
Some words keep
C#m
speaking When
G#m
you close the
F#m
book Drank and
G#m A
just about smiled
B C#m
Then I remembered
G#m E E/G#
us in that bed
F#m G#m
Put my ear
A
to the door
B
I just heard
C#m
hot rods
G#m
and gunshots
and sirens
F#m G#m
People kill
A
me these days
B
There's keys
C#m
in their eyes
G#m
But they lock
from the inside
G#m E
This is my condition
C#m E/G#
Naked and hysterical
A
Reaching to grab a
B
hand that I just
slapped back at
G#m E
This is my condition
C#m
Desperate alone
E/G#
Without an excuse
A
I try to explain
B
Christ what's the use?
