G Am7
You're on your own my little nightmare

You cannot stay here, It's far too bright for you
Am7 Em
If they attack you just lay there, play dead dear
D/F# G
It's your only hope of pulling through
Pre Chorus 1:
Am7 Em
And seconds they seem, like a lifetime, a dream
G
Recurring, a dream that can't come true
Am7 Em
And they'll pin it all on you
C
after all you've been put through
Em C
"Sadie G. She's crazy, see?"
G Dsus4/F#
That's what the white coats say
Em C
Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing
G Dsus4/F#
Every opportunity, to put us all away

verse 2:
G Am7 Em
Now run along my little nightmare, your job is done here

You've scared them all to death
Am7 Em
If they revive them just sit there, just smile dear
D/F# G
Make them thankful for every breath
Pre Chorus 2:
Am7 Em
The sentence may seem, like a lifetime, a scream
G
That's curdling the blood they found on you
Am7 Em
And your knives and clothing too
C
Charlie's broken .22
Em C
"Sadie G. She's crazy, see?"

That's what the white coats say
Em C
Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing
G Dsus4/F#
Every opportunity
Em C G Dsus4/F#
Well they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way

That you've bound and gagged, you've shot and stabbed
