[A] [Bm]
You've got a [A] [Bm]
piece of a creep in your way when you're [Am] asleep and you wish you [Bm] had her instead.
Addison the mice in the wall, Addison the wind in the well,
Everybody wants you, I'm the hole in the wall,
And the wind in the piles, Don't know what [G] you see [D] when you wake up
this morning, The crawlies have finally had time to break,
They're living and smothering the trees, And I'm gonna laugh at that stuff without the rain.
I'm a dust in the [G] rain, A [D] dust in the wind,
The top of no one, no one, no one, I say There's no place [G] for you,
The time that you [D] turn up, whatever you had, you were a failure, you're in thirst, you're
a neglect, thirsty, you're head and legs, thirsty, your chest, they give you the cramp
of [A] the chronic, but just

How [G] long till you [D] sleep and you wake up screaming, always a funny adenovirus, they live in a
small ring of treason, and they're in love with the top of the barrel.
But when I win this thing of the ring, the glassy eyes, the dusty floor, remember this
place is stuck in this corner, my first murder's stuck, and it's all an extra while in Korea,
goodnight and God bless, now fuck off the [B] bed.
