[Verse 1]

I was choking on a cornflake

You said “Have some toast instead”
Cm                                Bb
I was sleeping maybe three hours

You said “You should get to bed”
Cm                             Bb
I was waiting at the church door
               Gm               Ab
For the minister to show
Cm                            Bb
I was looking at the new year
                 Gm                        Ab Gm Fm
You said “Walk before you crawl”

You said “You wanted to be free”
Cm                           Bb
I was looking for a good time
                Gm                            Ab
You said “Let the good times start”
Cm                                Bb
With a quiver of your eyelid
                      Gm                     Ab
You took on someone else’s part

[Bridge]
                           Eb
But what about me
Ab                   Eb
I don’t really see
Ab                       Eb
How things will improve
                 Ab
If all you want is to stay

[Verse 3]
Cm                        Bb
Maybe I’m a little greedy
                 Gm                        Ab
You said “Think before you speak”
Cm                                Bb
Sometimes I’m a little seedy
                 Gm               Ab
You said “Everyone is weak”
Cm                        Bb
Now I feel a little better
               Gm                      Ab
Is there something I can do?
Cm                               Bb
But I never heard the answer
    Gm                Ab
I never had a clue

[Bridge]
                          Eb
But what about me
Ab                  Eb
I don’t really see
Ab                       Eb
How things will improve
                 Ab
If all you want is to stay

[Chorus]
         Fm
The lights are out
            Gm
In the house tonight
           Ab
And I creep around
                Eb                       Bb
And I’m creeping to your head
              Ab                    Cm
All you wanted to stay loose.

[Verse 4]
Cm                             Bb
There’s a little echo calling
           Gm                    Ab
Like a miner trapped inside
Cm                         Bb
If I tell her of this moment
                   Gm               Ab
She will in me doubts confide
Cm                                 Bb
And she’s on me like a blanket
           Gm                     Ab
Like a stalk of wilting grass
Cm                                 Bb
I’m not sure about her motives
              Gm                     Ab Gm Fm
I’m not sure about her past

[Verse 5]
Cm                              Bb
But my faith is like a bullet
        Gm                   Ab
My belief is like a bolt
Cm                                  Bb
The only thing that lets me sleep at night
             Gm                     Ab
A little carriage of the soul
Cm                       Bb
If it starts a little bleaker
               Gm                       Ab
Then the year may yet be gold
Cm                                Bb
Happiness is not for keeping
     Gm                           Ab
Happiness is not my goal

[Bridge]
                          Eb
So what about me
Ab                     Eb
I don’t really see
Ab                        Eb
How things will improve
                Ab                      Eb
If all you want is to stay loose
Ab                        Eb
But what about them
Ab                        Eb
You play mother hen
          Ab                            Eb
To a gaggle of gangling youth
                 Ab
If all you want is to stay

[Chorus]
         Fm
The lights are out
            Gm
In the house tonight
            Ab
And I creep around
              Eb                          Bb
And I’m creeping to your head
              Ab
All you wanted to stay

[Verse 6]
Cm                                   Gm
I was living through the second
        Ab                         Eb
My composure was a mess
           Fm                 Cm
I was miles from tenderness
            Ab                         Ab            Gm         Bb
It was dark outside, the day it was lying in pieces
Cm                               Gm
Everything is flat and dreary
                 Ab                         Eb
I couldn’t care what’s in the news
     Fm                     Cm
Television is the blues
     Ab                Ab             Gm            Bb
Television is hysterical laughter of people

[Chorus]
            Ab                       Bb
And I know it could be me
                                    Cm      Bb      Ab       Gm
I’m always asking for more, more, more, more
            Ab                          Eb
I keep running round in circles
            Ab                    Eb
I keep looking for a doorway
                       Ab
I’m going to need two lives
       Ab              Gm                   Bb
To follow the paths I’ve been taking
