Pre-Verse Lick
Hey golden boy, don't let the darkness into, take you away from yourself
Nobody else, there's nobody left to make you run
Somebody new, maybe it's you, only bereft of meaning
One of these days, you're going to wake up wondering how it went down
Then in a daze, you're going to make up something
Pre-Verse Lick C9
And wallow around in your room
Maybe it's soon, or maybe it won't be for some time (maybe it won't be for some time)
I hope you'll be thinking of me, and I hope you won't be lonely
Hang your head, but don't let your hair fall out
Just hang your hat, at somebody else's house
Game, set and match, I have to give that to you, you are the man
Wait, there's a catch, everyone sees right through you
Pre-Verse Lick C9
But that was the plan all along
Just tell me I'm wrong, tell me you wanted something else (Tell me you wanted something more)
You entered the code that made you explode, now I hope you won't be lonely anymore
Hang your head, but don't let your hair fall out
Just hang your hat, at somebody else's house
No, no, no; you're not a quitter
So don't, don't, don't, don't you be bitter
Go, go, go where you'll glitter away
Solo Chords x2
Hang your head, but don't let your hair fall out
Just hang your hat, at somebody else's house
Hang your head, but don't let your hair fall out
Just hang your hat, at somebody else's house
At somebody else's house
At somebody else's house
