A                          D                                             A 
I  hear  the  doorbell  ring  and  suddenly  the  panic  takes  me 
 
                          D                                                     A 
The  sound  so  ominously  tearing  through  the  silence 
 
                 Am                           E 
I  cannot  move  I'm  standing  numb  and  frozen 
 
                                                    D       A 
Among  the  things  I  love  so  dearly,  The  books 
 
                                         G                    A 
The  paintings  and  the  furniture ?   help  me. 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
A                                G           D           A 
Now  I  hear  them  moving  muffled  noises  coming 
 
                                      G               D       A 
Through  the  door  I  feel  I'm  crackin  up. 
 
                             G            D           A 
Voices  growing  louder  irritaion  building  and 
 
                            G            D      A 
I'm  close  to  fainting  cracking  up. 
 
 
They  must  know  by  now  I'm  in  here  tremblin 
In  a  terror  evergrowing,  cracking  up. 
 
 
My  whole  world  is  falling,  going  crazy 
 
 
There's  no  escaping  now  I'm  cracking  up. 
 
 
Here's the tab for the little synth riff that comes after that Chorus: 
 
E-------------------12---15-15----14----12---15-15----14---10---9-10-12~~~~~~ 
 
B----14-14----15
