[Ab] [Fm] [Cm] [Eb] I don't live in [Ab] California, I'll inform you [Fm] that's not where I reside
I'm [Cm] just a tenant paying rent [Eb] inside this body and I
[Ab] 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 [Fm] too much, yeah I get so [C] caught up
[Cm] I'm always thinking [Eb] in my head
[Ab] I wish I could [Fm] escape, I tried [Cm] yesterday
Took all the sheets off [Eb] my bed
And [Ab] I tied them all in [Fm] with five strips of ribbon [Cm] I found
[Eb] Still [Ab] the start of the building, [Fm] I ran to the hill till [Cm] they found me
[Eb] And they put [Ab] me back [Fm] in my cell
All by myself, [Cm] I'm in with my thoughts [Eb] again
Guess [Ab] my mind is a prison [Fm] and I'm never gonna [Cm] get out
[Eb] So [Ab] much people eyes me and lies me [Fm] through me back in my case
[Cm] And they tie me to a knife, [Eb] he told me I was insane
[Ab] I'm a [Eb] prisoner, a [Fm] visitor inside of my brain
[Cm] And no matter what I do, they [Eb] try to keep me in [Ab] chain
Sometimes I think too [Fm] much, yeah I get so [Cm] caught up
