DI went out, felt the sun Eon my face
DThen Ea tug on my leg and now I'm back in the cave
DThereE's a moment of peace that I just can't recreate
AI need sleGep, but my brain won't get tired
AI smGell like smoke from electrical fires
 D(let ring)					G  A  
Don't touch me 'cause I've got crossed wires...crossed wires
DKeep GyouAr hands free, I've got crossed wires...crossed wires
DCrossed wires, Crossed wires
GCroAssed wires, Crossed wires
		Em  G, A  
Crossed wires
A day like this, we should be out on the road
With the sky so clear and the air so cold
There's blankets in the back, bundle up my little urchin
'Cause we never got the heat working
No, we never got the heat working
D, Bm, A#, E, A  
Collecting the notes you slipped under the door
D, Bm, A#, E, A  
I go blank when I try to remember what we were good for
D, Bm, A#, E, A  
I'm cracked, I'm crossed and it's no way to be
D, Bm, A#, E, F#, G, E, F#, G  
Let's just get lost and maybe it will come back to me...back to me
end with D, G,  Aover Crossed Wires repeated with  Das final chord
