[Fm] [G] [Eb] I don't live in [Ab] California, I'll inform you [Fm] that's not where I reside
[G] I'm just a tenant paying rent [Eb] inside this body and I
Got two windows and those windows, [Fm] well I call them my eyes
[Cm] I'm just going where the wind [Eb] blows, I don't get to decide
[Ab] Sometimes I think [F] too much, yeah I get so [C] caught up
I'm always stuck [Eb] in my head [Ab] I wish I could [Fm] escape, I tried to [Cm] yesterday
Took all the sheets [Eb] off my bed Then [Ab] I tied them on linen [Fm] with five strips
of ribbon [Cm] I found [Eb] Skilled [Ab] the side of the building, [Fm] I ran to
the hill so [Cm] they found me [Eb] And they put [Ab] me back in my [Fm] cell, all by myself
[Cm] I'm all with my thoughts [Eb] again Guess [Ab] my mind is a prison [Fm] and I'm never gonna [Cm] get out
[Eb] So [F] they vocalize me, analyze [Fm] me, throw me back in my cage
[Cm] And they tie me to a knife, [Eb] he told me I was insane
I'm a prisoner, a [Fm] visitor inside of my brain [Cm] And no matter what I do, they [Eb] try to keep
me in [Ab] chains
