BmI’ll keep taking the pills if you keep Ggiving them to Emme, G  
DAnd I don’t want to prove you have a Gheart,

cause GI’d have no Emidea Gwhere to Emstart. 
It’s a long way down to the Gbottom; 
it’s a steep climb up to the Atop, 
It’s a gamble when you Bbdon’t know how to Cstop,
DI keep running from the Gstorm and you have Bmdone you’re best, 
To Emregulate and mediDcate the dark clouds Emforming in my Gbrain, D  
DBut Mildred drop thGe act with me, 
Oh Bmwhen we get together we can Emtalk it out and then you’ll Dsee, 
We all need shelter in the Grain,

GIt’Ds nausea and numbness; 
it’s Gstiffness and fatigue, 
BmI’ll keep taking the pills, 
why won’t you Gtake a few with Emme? G  
When I Dlook into your eyes,
that Gicy glare belies a softer Bmside, 
But you’re held captive Gtoo, 
we were Emboth loGbotoEmmized, 
It’s a long way down to the Gbottom;
it’s a steep climb up to the Atop, 
It’s a gamble when you Bbdon’t know how to Cstop,
DI keep running from the Gstorm and you have Bmdone you’re best, 
To Emregulate and mediDcate the dark clouds Emforming in my Gbrain,D

We all feel crazy Gsometimes, 
And you’re the same as Bbme,

Sometimes it helps to feel the Bbrain.

It’s a long way down to the bottom;

it’s a steep climb up to the top,

Bb C

It’s a gamble when you don’t know how to stop,

D G Bm

I keep running from the storm and you have done you’re best,

Em D Em G D

To regulate and medicate the dark clouds forming in my brain,

But Mildred drop the act with me,

Bm Em D

Oh when we get together we can talk it out and then you’ll see,

We all need shelter in the rain,

D G Bm Em D G

It’s nausea and numbness;

it’s stiffness and fatigue,

I’ll keep taking the pills,

G Em G

why won’t you take a few with me?

When I look into your eyes,

G Bm

that icy glare belies a softer side,

But you’re held captive too,

Em G Em

we were both lobotomized,

It’s a long way down to the bottom;

it’s a steep climb up to the top,

Bb C

It’s a gamble when you don’t know how to stop,

We all feel crazy sometimes,

And you’re the same as me,

Yeah you’re the same as me,

You know that I keep running from the storm,

And you have done you’re best,

To regulate and medicate, The dark clouds forming in my brain,
