[Intro]
E
[Chorus 1]
E A E C#m
Piece of dirt, that is all I'm standing on today
E A E C#m
Piece of dirt, the whole world has slipped away
F#m C#m
I would climb the highest mountain just to
A E
Jump into a fountain
A B E C#m
Or to fly, I'd fly away
[Verse 1]
F#m C#m
A woman's voice on the radio
A E
Can convince you you're in love
A E
A woman's voice on the telephone
A B
Can convince you you're alone
C#m E
But I set my sails so long ago
A F#m
They've revoked my sailor's badge
E A
Said I should be content and happy
A B E
On this ink spot where I stand
[Chorus 2]
E A E C#m
Piece of dirt, that is all I'm standing on today
E A E C#m
Piece of dirt, the whole world has slipped away
F#m C#m
I find myself haunted
A E
By a spooky man named me
A B E
I wish that I could jump out of my skin
