Verse 1:
I don't live in [Ab] California
I'll inform you, that's not [Fm] where I reside
I'm just a [Cm] tenant payin' rent inside this [Eb] body and I...
Got two [Ab] windows
And those windows, well, I [Fm] call them my eyes
I'm just [Cm] goin' where the wind blows
I don't [Eb] get to decide
Pre-chorus:
[Ab] Sometimes I think too much
[Fm] Yeah, I get so caught up
[Cm] I'm always stuck in my [Eb] head
[Ab] I wish I could escape
[Fm] I tried to yesterday
[Cm] Took all the sheets off my [Eb] bed
Chorus:
Then I [Ab] tied up my linen
With [Fm] five strips of ribbon I [Cm] found[Eb]
Scaled the [Ab] side of the buildin'
I [Fm] ran to the hills 'til they [Cm] found me
[Eb] And they put me [Ab] back in my cell
[Fm] All by myself
[Cm] Alone with my thoughts again[Eb]
Guess my [Ab] mind is a prison
And [Fm] I'm never gonna get [Cm] out
Verse 2:
So they [Ab] tranquilize me, analyzed me
Threw me [Fm] back in my cage
Then they [Cm] tie me to an IV
Told me [Eb] I was insane
I'm a [Ab] prisoner, a visitor
[Fm] Inside of my brain
And no [Cm] matter what I do
They try to [Eb] keep me in chains
Pre-chorus:
[Ab] Sometimes I think too much
[Fm] Yeah, I get so caught up
[Cm] I'm always stuck in my [Eb] head
[Ab] I wish I could escape
[Fm] I tried to yesterday
[Cm] Took all the sheets off my [Eb] bed
Chorus:
Then I [Ab] tied up my linen
With [Fm] five strips of ribbon I [Cm] found[Eb]
Scaled the [Ab] side of the buildin'
I [Fm] ran to the hills 'til they [Cm] found me
[Eb] And they put me [Ab] back in my cell
[Fm] All by myself
[Cm] Alone with my thoughts again[Eb]
Guess my [Ab] mind is a prison
And [Fm] I'm never gonna get [Cm] out
Bridge:
[Ab] Said even if it's true
[Fm] No matter what I do
[Cm] I'm never gonna escape[Eb]
[Ab] I won't give up on hope
[Fm] Secure another rope
[Cm] And try for another day[Eb]
[Ab] Said even if it's true
[Fm] No matter what I do
[Cm] I'm never gonna escape[Eb]
[Ab] I won't give up on hope
[Fm] Secure another rope
[Cm] And try for another day[Eb]
Chorus:
Then I [Ab] tied up my linen
