At ten in the morning I was laughing at something
 C               G           D 
At the airport terminal
         C                     G           C             G           C                 G     D 
At nine in the evening I was sitting crying to you over the phone
           C                         G                         C                 G 
While passing the border from a state to another
                           C           G                               D 
Filled with people whom I couldn't help to relate to
               C               G                       C                         G 
And we stopped a while at a roadside restaurant
                       C               G                                         D 
Where the waitress was sitting outside smoking in her car
         C                                   G       C                     G 
She had that look of total fear in her eyes
                       C                             G                 D 
And as we drove away from there she looked at me and she smiled
     C                           G             C                                   G 
I keep running around, trying to find the ground
               C                             G               D 
But my head is in the stars my feet are in the sky
                   C                 G                 C                     G 
Well I'm nobody's baby, I'm everybody's girl
                   C                   G                           D                                 G 
I'm the queen of nothing, I'm the kii--ing of the world

         C                         G             C                                   G 
And once you asked me well what's my biggest fear
           C                       G                       D 
That things would always remain so unclear
           C                           G       C           G 
That one day I'd wake up all alone
               C             G                                 D 
With a big family and emptiness deep in my bones
               C                         G               C             G 
That I would be so blinded, turn a deaf ear
                 C                 G                                     D 
And that my fake laugh would suddenly sound sincere
             C                                 G 
Now I wasn't born for anything
               C                         G 
Wasn't born to say anything
         C                 G                                     D 
I'm just here now and soon I'll be gone
                   C                 G                 C                     G 
Well I'm nobody's baby, I'm everybody's girl
                   C                   G                           D                                 G 
I'm the queen of nothing, I'm the kii--ing of the world

             C         G                     C                     G 
Now every day there's a short intermission
 C                 G               D 
While I sleep they start dimming the lights
                   C             G                 C                       G 
But I've seen everything I ever want to see
                     C                           G                               D 
Screaming "fire!" in the theater, people taking their seats
 C                             G                           C                         G 
Watch it all go down like the stone in the stream
             C                           G                         D 
You fall for your reflection, you drown in the dream
 C                                   G       C                                   G 
Tell me something real, tell me something true
               C                                       G                                     D 
I just want to feel there's something left that I can do
                   C                 G                 C                     G 
Well I'm nobody's baby, I'm everybody's girl
                   C                   G                           D                                 G 
I'm the queen of nothing, I'm the kii--ing of the world
