[Intro]
D
[Verse]
D
I left my body
      A
And I went on a journey
             G               A
And I forgot where I left my body.
D
They're going to tow you
        A
If they think you're abandoned
           G                    A
You got to act like you're not abandoned
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7          A                   Em7
I left a notebook with all of my good ideas
A          Em7         F#
Keywords encoded cryptographically
[Chorus]
G             A
I'm waiting endlessly
         Bm         E7
On the receptionist at the desk
G             A
I'm searching high and low
      D         G
But I don't see anyone
D         G
Don't see anyone
D         G      D
Don't see anyone there
[Verse]
D
I left my body
         A
With the old landlady
            G                      A
But I don't know if she read the directions
D
There must be something
        A
You can use on the carpet
              G                  A
Someone might want that electric blanket
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7        A              Em7
Unfinished Manuscript and tungsten ring
A          Em7                F#
My plastic hip is going to be worth something
[Chorus]
G          A
I took the folding knife
       Bm            E7
and my bat repellent soap
G         A
I left my body
                 Bm            E7
And right away I knew I'd made a mistake
G          A
I left without my senses
    D           G
And I can't see anything
D         G
Can't see anything
[Chorus]
G           A
I'm waiting endlessly
         Bm         E7
On the receptionist at the desk
G             A
I'm searching high and low
      D         G
But I don't see anyone
D         G
Don't see anyone
D         G      D
Don't see anyone there
