AmMr Sketchy, I'll see you later
DmGlad you let me put this on paper
GYou creep through my soul once more
AmIt creeps when I go door to door to door
AmMr Blackthumb, who plays the upstrum
DmHe is Wilson, bashed up the big drum
GHe's flaking, alienating 
AmAnd taking, commiserating

[Verse]

Mr Sketchy, I'll see you later

Glad you let me put this on paper

You creep through my soul once more

It creeps when I go door to door to door

Mr Blackthumb, who plays the upstrum

He is Wilson, bashed up the big drum

He's flaking, alienating

And taking, commiserating

[Pre-Chorus]

C E

Lay me down

F F#dim7

Playing the clown

G G#dim7

Coz I'm not mad

[Chorus]

All this roughed up sleeping

and it's time

I tried to close my eyes

Am G

Which now don't half look like mine

And I've been up self seeking

but it's time

I tried to close my eyes

Am G

so I can see myself shine

[Verse]

Chill me out, this place is clinical

an energy vampire sucking on me

All the things I do when I'm alone

I think I'm crazy on my own

Walk around, back and forth

go up and down, south then north

Ring-a-ding-ding-phone it makes me shiver

I exercise my face in the mirror

[Pre-Chorus]

C E

Lay me down

F F#dim7

Playing the clown

G G#dim7

Coz I'm not mad

[Chorus]

All this roughed up sleeping

and it's time

I tried to close my eyes

Am G

Which now don't half look like mine

And I've been up self seeking

but it's time

I tried to close my eyes

Am G

so I can see myself shine

[Bridge]

It's here,

a bitter blues it sits here

I got no idea how it got here

like stonehenge, stonehenge and the sun

I took 'em, I took 'em and I never felt better

What about the time

when you said I was a traitor

G Am

I gave my last rolo to you

[Pre-Chorus]

C E

Lay me down

F F#dim7

Playing the clown

G G#dim7

Coz I'm not mad

[Chorus]

All this roughed up sleeping

and it's time

I tried to close my eyes

Am G

Which now don't half look like mine

And I've been up self seeking

but it's time

I tried to close my eyes

Am G

so I can see myself shine

[Outro]

Am Dm G Am G

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooooohh

Am Dm G

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooooooh

Am G Am

oh oh, oh oh
