E              G              D                  C
I was gone for fourteen days, I could have been  gone for more;
E                G              D                C
Held up in intensive care ward, Lying on the     floor.
E              G              D                  C  
I was gone for all those days,But I was not all a-lone;
E                     G             D            C      C-riff
I made friends with a lot of peo-ple  in the danger zone
C        D        E             C        D       E
See my  lone-ly life un-fold    I see it ev-ry   day
C        D    E       A         C        D       E
See my only mind ex-plode,    since I've gone a-way
E              G              D                  C
E                    G            D               C
I think I lost some weight there, And I'm sure I need some rest;
E              G              D                   C
Sleeping don't come very easy  In a straight white vest.
E                    G                D                     C
Sure like to see that little children, She's only four years old old
E                     G               D                  C     C-riff
I'd give her back all her play things even even the one I stole
C        D        E             C        D       E
See my  lone-ly life un-fold     I see it ev-ry  day
C        D    E       A         C        D       E
See my  lone-ly mind ex-plode,    when I've gone in-sane
Interlude 3X E G D C
E              G              D                  C
  (I wanna get out of here,         I've  wanna  get out of here.)
E              G              D                  C
  (I gotta get out of here,         I've  got to get out of here.)
E              G              D                  C
  (I gotta get out of here,         I've  got to get out of here.)
C        D        E             C        D        E
See my  lone-ly life un-fold     I see it ev-ry   day
C        D    E       A         C        D       E
See my  lone-ly mind ex-plode,    blow up in my face
Interlude 3X E G D C
E                   G             D               C      
I grabbed my hat I got my coat  I ran into the street 
E                   G               D                     C
I saw a man that was chok-ing there   I guess he couldn't breathe
E                         G              D                  C   
Said to my-self, this is ver-y strange,  I'm glad it wasn't me;
E                   G               D                     C
But now I hear those sirens call-ing  And so I am not     free 
(I didn't want to be)
(I didn't want to be)
(I didn't want to be)
C        D        E             C        D        E
See my  lone-ly life un-fold      
C        D    E       A         C        D       E
See my lone-ly mind ex-plode,    blow up in my face
