I've been looking all over trying to find a place to lay my head.
I used to have a house and a spouse, now it's hers instead.
[A] I thought I had a friend that was knocking on his door,
trying to remind him what friends was [E] for, but I think he's dead.
[B] I saw his neighbor on the front porch looking pretty [A] stoned.
His dog was in the backyard chewing on a [E] bone, but there's no bug at all.
Nobody home.
[B] [A]
[B] [E]
[C#m] I saw a church with a [E] sign, it was open, so I stepped inside.
They said, double your misery back if you ain't satisfied.
[A] I thought this deal can't last, I should cash it quick,
and get it all done before I get too sick [E] to find my way outside.
[B] I saw a saint with his mouth open carved out of [A] stone,
a preacher with his mouth shut staring at his [E] phone, but there's nobody home.
There wasn't nobody home.
[B] [A]
[B] [E]
[C#m] I saw a big white [E] house down on Pennsylvania Avenue.
I said, open up the gate, this can't wait.
They said, who you?
[A] I said, I was a citizen trying to cut a deal for a Russian unicycle
with a missing [E] wing, guarantee let me through.
[B] I saw a clown with a comb over trying to float [A] along through the CIA
while he tweeted on his [B] phone, but there's [E] nobody home.
There ain't nobody home.
[B] That's too easy.
[A]
[E] [B] [E]
[C#m] It's getting hard to maintain [E] connections in a personal way.
Everybody wants to text me because they ain't got nothing to say.
[A] Yeah, believe me when I tell you it's like being alone,
hanging out with numbers in a cyber zone.
[E] Yeah, you pay to play.
[B] It'll drive you crazy right around the [A] bend.
Pretty soon you're talking to yourself again.
[B] There ain't [E] nobody home.
No, there ain't nobody home.
[B] Yes, it will drive you crazy [A] right around the bend.
Pretty soon you're talking to yourself [E] again.
There ain't nobody home.
There ain't nobody home.
