[C] I [F] go to bed, but sleep [C] won't come.

Waiting [F] the long night, but the knock, knock on my [C] door.
The knock, knock on my door.
I've got [F] 400 million ways to be, and I can't [C] find a girl.
Let me, let me tell you a time trial.

Higher and higher.
This relief [F] cannot bear it.

The [F] crying that I'm bearing, Lord, I'm nobody to [C] help me nowhere.
