Capo 3
[Verse 1]
DThrough the fish eyed lens of tear stained eyAes
I can Gbarely define the shape of this moment in Dtime
And Dfar from flying high in clear blue skiAes
I'm Gspiraling down, to the hole in the ground where I Dhide
GIf you negotiate the Dminefield in the drive,
Gand beat the dogs, and cheat the cold Delectronic eyes,
Gand if you Amake it past the Bmshotguns in the hall,
Em7Dial the combination... open the priesthole
And if I'm in, I'll Atell you (BOOM!)D  
[Verse 2]
F#mThere's a kid who had a big hallucinDation
F#mMaking love to girls in magaAzines
He Gwonders if you're sleeping with your Bmnew found faith...
Em7Could anybody love him?
Or is it just a Acrazy Ddream?
|(D) | D/A   A| G| D|
[Verse 3]
And Dif I show you my dark Aside
Will you still hold Gme Dtonight?
And Dif I open my Aheart to you,
Show you my Gweak side...
What would you Ddo?
GWould you sell your story to Rolling DStone?
GWould you take the children away, Dand leave me alone?
And Gsmile in reassAurance as you Bmwhisper down the phone,
Em7Would you send me packing?
...AOr would you take me Dhome?
[Solo]

[Verse 4]
F#mThought I oughta bare my naked Dfeelings,
F#mThought I oughta tear the curtain Adown
I Gheld the blade in trembling hands,
PBmrepared to make it but...
Em7Just then the phone rang.
I never had the nerve to make The Final DCut
