There's no MCP chords or tabs on this site, and that's a damn shame.  These are simplified, but should
be plenty to play along.  I like how it sounds with the following chords, but you can just play regular A, D,
and E chords if that's easier or sounds better to you!

Din situations where false ends justify these Ameans.
ABut I just want to go to bed
with Esomeone who will not forget
Dhow I made them feel when we first Amet.
AAnd I just want to go to sleep
besEide someone who dreams of me,
Dsomeone who will miss me when I'm dAead.

But I still can't fall asleep.

Bury me in the backyard with my best friends.

D A

Eventually each means will reach its end.

A E

They're drinking on the couch, so I'm leaving any minute now.

D A

I guess I'm just more diffident than I present.

'Cause I just want to go to sleep

and find some silence in my dreams,

And I just want to go to bed

and find some silence in my head,

D A

but my thoughts are bursting at the seams.

[Interlude]

A D

A E

Bury me in your bedroom without sheets.

D A

Feed me your false pretense. Make me feel complete-

D A

in situations where false ends justify these means.

But I just want to go to bed

with someone who will not forget

D A

how I made them feel when we first met.

And I just want to go to sleep

beside someone who dreams of me,

D A

someone who will miss me when I'm dead.

But I still can't fall asleep.
