[A]
I [E]
grew up under yellow [A] light on the street, putting too much faith in [B] the make-believe
and another high school [A] football team.
[E]
My neighbors bought the game, a woman, a box, [A] but he wanted to go, so maybe [B] it was his fault.
Another red hot day, another [A] American dream.
And I feel [C#m]
it now, in the middle of the [B] night,
and the lights go out, and [E] I'm all alone out here.
[A] [E]
Say where you're at, just say it like it [A] means it,
if it's for once, a long cold [B] war with your kids and your brother,
just give [C#m] it one more day, [A] then you're done, done.
[E]
I do what I want, crying and bleaching, and you said it was fun,
I don't need [B] anything from anyone, it's just [A] not my game.
But I'm all alone [E] out here, and I am all alone.
Hands over my knees, everyone pulling faces, [B] I'm sorry if I seem like, but I was [C#m] probably wasted.
[A]
I didn't feel so good, [F#] I'm [E] so lonely.
[F#]
Jesus, if you're listening, [E] let me have a [B] go.
Jesus, if you're there, why [E] do I feel [A] alone in this room, with you, [A]
[C#m] here, there.
In the middle of the [B] night, and the lights go out, but I'm [C#m] still [A] standing here.
[E]
Say where you're at, just say it like it means [A] it,
if it's for once, a long [B] cold war with your kids and your brother,
just give it one more day, [A] then you're done, done.
[E] I do what I want, crying and bleaching, [A] and you said it was fun,
I don't [B] need anything from anyone, it's just not [E] my game.
But I'm all alone out here, and I am all [A] alone.
If it's for once, a long cold [C#] war [B] with your kids and your brother,
[A]
[E]
I'm doing what I [A] want, [B]
for me, [A] for me, for me, [E]
for [A] me.
