Intro:
[-]G, Am7, Em
G, Am7, Em, D/F#
[-]Verse 1:
[-]
[G]You're on your own my little [Am7]nightmare
You cannot [Em]stay here, It's far too bright for you[G]
If they attack you just [Am7]lay there, play [Em]dead dear
It's your only hope of pu[D/F#]lling [G]through
[-]Pre-Chorus 1:
[-]
And seconds they [Am7]seem, like a lifetime, a [Em]dream
Recurring, a dream that can't come [G]true
And they'll [Am7]pin it all on [Em]you
after all you've been put [C]through
[-]Chorus 1:
[-]
[Em]"Sadie G. She's [C]crazy, see?"
G [cb]Dsus4/F#[/cb]
That's what the white coats say
Now Ms. [Em]Susan A. you're [C]losing
G [cb]Dsus4/F#[/cb]
Every opportunity, to put us all away
[-]Chorus Break:
[-]G, Am7, Em
G, Am7, Em, D/F#
[-]Verse 2:
[-]
[G]Now run along my little [Am7]nightmare, your job is [Em]done here
You've scared them all to dea[G]th
If they revive them just [Am7]sit there, just [Em]smile dear
Make them thankful for e[D/F#]very [G]breath
[-]Pre-Chorus 2:
[-]
The sentence may [Am7]seem, like a lifetime, a [Em]scream
That's curdling the blood they found on [G]you
And your [Am7]knives and clothing [Em]too
Charlie's broken .2[C]2
[-]Chorus 2:
[-]
[Em]"Sadie G. She's [C]crazy, see?"

That's what the white coats say
Now Ms. [Em]Susan A. you're [C]losing
G [cb]Dsus4/F#[/cb]
Every opportunity
Em C G [cb]Dsus4/F#[/cb]
Well they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way
That you've [Em]bound and gagged, you've [C]shot and stabbed
G [cb]Dsus4/F#[/cb]
You tried to set 'em free, but they've thrown away the keys
