GI still see you there,
DA tall glass of Napoleon and an 
Coff-white leather chair,
CTrying to sink tomorrow.
GWhat's so important today?
DYou said the same shit yesterday
The tired lCies that you recite,
CYou don't really mean them, do you?
G D C C
Another bGroken afternoon,
DA whole life just scattered and strewn
CAcross the bathroom floor.
CAnd I'll draw the blinds and lock the doors.
GWe need some help 
DI can only help you hurt yourself
CI threw it all down the wishing well,
CDon't throw it all down the wishing well.

Capo 1

Into with tab

G D C C

I still see you there,

A tall glass of Napoleon and an

off-white leather chair,

Trying to sink tomorrow.

What's so important today?

You said the same shit yesterday

The tired lies that you recite,

You don't really mean them, do you?

G D C C

Another broken afternoon,

A whole life just scattered and strewn

Across the bathroom floor.

And I'll draw the blinds and lock the doors.

We need some help

I can only help you hurt yourself

I threw it all down the wishing well,

Don't throw it all down the wishing well.

[Bridge]

We've only got one shot now Napoleon

No it's not too late to mend,

It's not too late to mend what we've broken.
