More chords by Alkaline Trio

Genre: punk, rock, post-punk

Intro: G Am Em (x2)

Verse:
G Am Em
You're on your own my little nightmare you cannot stay here
Em
It's far too bright for you
G Am Em
If they attack you just lay there, play dead dear
Em
It's your only hope of pulling through
G Am Em
The seconds may seem like a lifetime, a dream recurring
Em
A dream that can't come true
G Am Em C
And they pin it all on you after all you've been put through
Chorus:
Em C G D
"Sadie G. she's crazy see?" That's what the whitecoats say
Em C G D
Now Ms Susan A., you're losing every opportunity to put us all away
G Am Em (x2)

Verse 2:

Now run along my little nightmare your job is done here

You scared 'em all to death

If they revive them just sit there

Just smile dear make them grateful for every breath

The sentence may seem like a lifetime of scream

That's curdling the blood they found on you

And your knives & clothing too
Charlie's broken .22
Chorus

and then...
Em C G D
Well they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way
Em C G D
But you bound and gagged you shot and stabbed you tried to set 'em free

But they've thrown away the key
G Em C D (x4)
G Em C D
Whoooooooooooooooa! (etc.)
Chorus chords (x2)
