           C 
{Verse:}
 C9               G   C9                       G 
      You live out where the street ends
           C9       G                 D                     C 
in a basement apt. with one of your friends
                 C9                 G 
and the tap drips all night
             C9                   G 
water torture in the sink
         C9           G 
The furnace is burning
                     D       C               C9  G 
but it's still cold i think ___

 C9                     G 
I can smell the bleach
                     C9           G 
that they use in the hall
               C9                     G                     D     C 
but it can't clean the dirt off of me
                           C9         G 
It's seeping under the door
 C9                 G 
in across the floor
           C9             G 
it's starting to hurt
{Chorus:}
               C9         G     C9 
Everytime I breatthe__
           G                         C9   G   D   C 
Everytime I try to leave__
{Verse:}
                 C9     G 
Now the toaster sticks
                 C9             G 
and the empties are piled
     C9                             G                             D       C 
I haven't been up the stairs in awhile now
     C9                   G 
I gotta wash the sheets on my bed
 C9                     G 
gotta watch the things that go unsaid
                                  D&  C 
                              chords wich are already
                              played at the end of verse)
 D 
    And every evening you open the door
                     C 
You come down
                 D                                                                                     C 
There's nothing like watching tv all night on the ground
         D                                             C 
and no one is watching me slide
 D 
below street level
                   C 
barely alive
{Instrumental} (chords from the Chorus)
         C9     G     C9                       G 
Now we live out where the street ends
           C9       G                 C9       G 
in a basement apt. just like our friends
                     C9                         G 
We always said that we were different
                 C9                       G 
but you know now that we weren't
               C9                                       G 
'cause there's holes in all the bottles
         D               C 
and my lungs hurt___
{Repeat Chorus}
