Verse 1
    Em                 Bm
A letter came to your door today
      Asus2                    G
You opened it, read it, then threw it away
        Em                    Bm
Didn't want to be reminded of what it had to say
         Asus2               G
Just as soon go lay on the floor
   Bm                         Em
Or beat someone senseless or watch a cartoon
    Bm                        Em
Or paint o'er your windows to hide the full moon
Em                        D
Tie yourself down like a genuine loon
          Asus2                  G
Becoming one with your shadows within

Chorus
            A                     G
They keep trying to find you and you run away
            D                            Asus2
With your hands over your eyes and your mouth open wide
        A                        G
To the same lonely hole you get lost in each day
           D                       Asus2
In fact, nobody's friend has got nothing inside

Em

Verse 2
     Em                      Bm
Thе phone on your table is ringing and ringing
     Asus2                     G
You leavе it unanswered, what could it be bringing
  Em                            Bm
'Cept truth and awareness and likely unstringing?
         Asus2               G
Just as soon go lay on the floor
    Bm                        Em
Or flesh-cut your forearms or blow out your brains
    Bm                     Em
Or open your windows to torrential rains
   Em                  D
Ensuring an unending flow of raw pain
          Asus2                   G
Becoming one with the monsters within

Chorus
            A                     G
They keep trying to find you and you run away
            D                            Asus2
With your hands over your eyes and your mouth open wide
        A                        G
To the same lonely hole you get lost in each day
           D                       Asus2
In fact, nobody's friend has got nothing inside

Verse 3
    Em                          Bm
Someone's at your door, she's knocking and knocking
      Asus2                    G
Your sense of contentment is reeling and rocking
     Em                          Bm
It's not worth the pain to even think of unlocking
        Asus2                  G
Just as soon stay down on the floor
    Bm                      Em
And let the night come and watch the light change
    Bm                      Em
Ignore everything that is frightening or strange
  Em                 D    
Allow isolation to fully derange
         Asus2                   G
Becoming one with the darkness within
           G           F#m       G
Which has never been anyone's friend

Chorus
            A                     G
They keep trying to find you and you run away
            D                            Asus2
With your hands over your eyes and your mouth open wide
        A                        G
To the same lonely hole you get lost in each day
  D                      Asus2
Nobody's friend has got nothing inside

Em  G  D  Asus2
