  			 G                       Em 
I don't need nobody 
Em                         Cadd9

I don't need nobody 
Em                         Cadd9 
I just need to learn the depth or doubt of faith 
Cadd9                   G        
To fall into 
 
Here I slumber.. To awaken my daze 
I find convenience.. In this savior I save 
Am I a prison.. Am I a source of dire news 
Am I a picture.. Perfect reason for you

In this time of substitute 
        C                               G        
It's my needs I've answered to (all the while) 
 
G           Am 
And all the hope that I invest 
                C                           G 
Still turns to signals of distress (all the while)
