[G] [D]
[G] [D] He wakes up [G] in the morning
[D] [F#m] Does his teeth [G] bite to eat and he's [D] rolling
Never [G] changes a thing
[D] The weak hands, [G] the weak thinking
[D] She thinks we look [G] at [A] each other
[D] Wondering what [G] the other is [Am] [D] thinking
We never [G] say a thing
[D] These crimes [G] between us grow deeper

Take [G] [D]
[F#m] [G] [D] [G] these chances
[D] Place them in [G] a box until [Bm] they quiet
[D]
Time goes [G] [D]
[G] [D] [F#m]
to their [G] satisfaction
[D] Feeds them well, [G] has concerns, he [D] forgets them
Then remembers [G] being small

Laying [G] under that table [Bm] and dreaming
[D] Take these [G] chances
[B] [A] [Bm] Place [D] them in [G] a [Bm] box until they quiet
[D] For time [G] [D] lights down, you up and die

[G] [A] [Em] [D] Driving [G] along the [D] sidewalk
All these cars [G] end up on the [D] sidewalk
[G] People in every direction
[D] No words [G] exchanged, no time to exchange
When all [Bm]
the little [Em] lamps are out of strength
[D] Red and black [Em] rats and the [G] waiting
They [D] all do [Em] it the [A] [G] same
[D] They all do [Em] it the same
[D]
[G] [D] Counting down the time, singing the [G] lullaby
[A] Sweet [G] cute talk, chittering my [D] way around
[F#m] Sitting in the program, cups shaking, the [G] floor is a loose [A] end
Pat, [D] pat, all my friends could not [G] surrender
Pat, pat, [Bm] pat, pat
Take [D] these [G] chances
Place [A] [D] them in [G] a [Bm] box until they quiet
