Eb C#
[Verse 1] (guitar enters at last Db in each verse)
Eb C#
I sit around and watch
Eb
the tube but nothing is
C# Eb C#
on I change the channel's
Eb C#
for an hour or two
Eb C#
Twiddle my thumbs
Eb
just for a bit
C#
I'm sick of all the
Eb
same old shit In
C#
the house with unlocked
Eb C#
doors and I'm fucking lazy
[Chorus]
Bb G#
Bite my lip and
Eb Bb
close my eyes
G#
Take me away
Eb
to paradise
Bb
I'm so damn
G# Eb
bored I'm going
Bb
blind and I
G#
smell like shit
[Post Chorus]
Eb C#
Eb C#
[Verse 2]
Eb C#
Peel me off this Velcro
Eb C#
seat And get me moving
Eb C#
I sure as hell can't
Eb C#
do it by myself
Eb C#
I'm feeling like
Eb
a dog in heat
C#
Barred indoors from
Eb
the summer street
C#
I've locked the doors
Eb
to my own cell and
C#
I've lost the key
[Chorus]
Bb G#
Bite my lip and
Eb Bb
close my eyes
G#
Take me away
Eb
to paradise
Bb
I'm so damn
G# Eb
bored I'm going
Bb
blind and I
G#
smell like shit
[Bridge]
Eb C#
I've got no motivation
Eb C#
Where is my motivation?
Eb C#
No time for motivation
Eb C# Bb G# Eb Bb G# Eb
Smoking my inspiration
Bb G# Eb Bb G#
[Interlude]

Eb C#
[Verse 3] (Bass)
Eb C#
I sit around and
Eb
watch the phone
C#
But no one is calling
Eb C#
Call me pathetic call
Eb C#
me what you will
Eb C#
My mother says
Eb
to get a job
C#
But she don't like
Eb
the one she's got
C#
When masturbation's
Eb
lost its fun you're
C#
fucking lonely
[Chorus]
Bb G#
Bite my lip and
Eb Bb
close my eyes
G#
Take me away
Eb
to paradise
Bb
I'm so damn
G# Eb
bored I'm going
Bb G#
blind And loneliness
Eb
has to suffice
Bb G#
Bite my lip and
Eb Bb
close my eyes
Slowly slipping
G# Eb
away to paradise
Bb G#
Some say "Quit
Eb Bb
or I'll go blind"
G#
but it's just a myth
