|A |E7sus4 E7 |A |Dv Dv Dv->E E

I see myself on TV, I'm a faker, a paper clown

|A |E7sus4 E7

It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie,

|A |Dv Dv Dv->E E

I just bring them down

|D |E7sus4 E7

I claim proneness to exaggeration

|D |E7sus4 E7

But the truth lies in my frustration

|D |E7sus4 E7 |

The children of the night, they all pass me by

|D |E7sus4 | E7

Have to dress myself in brandy, in sleep I'll hide

|E7sus4 |E7

But however much I booze

|A D/A |A D/A |A D/A |A D/A

There ain't no way out There ain't no way out

|E7sus4 |E7 |A D/A |A D/A

I don't care what you say, boy There ain't no way out

 

[repeat intro]

 

I lose so many nights of sleep worrying about my responsibility

Are the problems that screw me up really down to him or me?

My ego will just confuse me, some day it's going to up and use me

Dish me out another tailor-made compliment

Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent

And however much I squirm

There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out

I don't care what you say, boy, there ain't no way out

 

Won't somebody tell me how to get out of this place?

 

[bridge]

|Cmaj7 | |Em | |

And the night comes down like a cell door closing

|Cmaj7 | |Em | |

Suddenly I realize that I'm writing now more honestly

|D | |E7sus4 |E7 |

While sitting here all alone with a bottle and my head up floating

|D | |E7sus4 |E7

Far away from the phone and the conscience going on at me and on at me

|E7sus4 |E7

But I don't care what you say

|A D/A |A D/A |A D/A |A |D/A |

There ain't no way out There ain't no way out

 

Now the walls are all clawed and scratched, like by some soul insane

In the morning I hung-overly detach myself, I'll take no blame

I just can't face my failure, I'm nothing but a well-fucked sailor

You at home can easily decide what's right

By glancing very briefly at the songs I write

But it don't help me that you know

There still ain't no way out, won't somebody tell me?

I don't care what you say, boy, there ain't no way out

 

There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out, there ain't no way out

Give me the key, give me the key, now, give me the key, now,

Give me the key, oh, there ain't now way out of here

 

Oh, tell me, tell me, there ain't no way out, there ain't no way out

There ain't no way out

There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out

There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out
