Introduction:
A E
I've got cotton balls in my ears
A D
I've been collecting them for many, many years
F#m
They keep the noise away
E
They keep the voice at bay
A E A
Cotton balls dry my tears
A E
I've got toothpicks in my eyes
A D
So I don't forget to keep them open wide
F#m
Make sure they never close
E
It's the only way to know
A E A
For certain nothing ever gets inside
A E
I've got a paper bag over my head
A D
I could take it off, I'll live with it instead
F#m
It lets the shadows in
E
The sun might burn my skin
A E A
And with no papеr bag I'd turn red
