VERSE 1
G#m F#
Before you know what's wrong with you
A E
Feel that monkey is sitting on your back
G#m F#
That's when you must realise that
A E
For you it's too late to crawl back
B G#m
That's when you must perceive
F# A B
Your world is built out of make belief
B G#m
That's when you wanna go but just can't leave
F# A B
That's when you even need a shot to get a breeze
BRIDGE
E
That's when your bed is gonna be your day
F#
And when you ain't got it you can't even move your head
A
That's when everything you touch seems unreal
E
And you don't even know how and what you feel
E
Well if that's the way you want it to be
F#
You better don't come to see me no more
A E
I don't wanna be around to see your world is tumbling down
VERSE 2
G#m F#
I'd like to keep my feet right on the ground
A E
That's why I don't want you around
G#m F#
The way you put yourself down
A E
don't appeal too much to me
B G#m
I tried to show you the way out
F#
You're on the leave, aren't you
A B
I thought you were some way out
B G#m
Well I think I've done everything I could
F# A B
I even loved you when it didn't go no good

VERSE 3
G#m F#
Don't you tell me you love me so
A E
I don't care a damn and I already know
G#m F#
Don't you think that I feel sorry for you
A E
And don't think about it if that's new to you
B G#m
And I don't care what you're gonna do
F#
Maybe you discover something new
A B
And that makes me feel all right
B G#m
So please girl, why don't you go away
F# A
leave me alone, I still got a home
B
That's where I'm gonna stay, stay home
