VERSE 
    Cm                                      Ab7 
The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down 
         Bb            G/B          Cm 
I'm more paranoid with every little sound 
         Cm                             Ab7 
Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around 
      G7                                 Cm 
And a siren wailing on the other side of town 

VERSE 
       Cm                                    Ab7 
Oh the TV's on and the colors really hurt my head 
           Bb                 G/B             Cm 
If I could think straight I'd wish that I was dead 
   Cm                            Ab7 
Or curled up naked in my lover's bed 
            G7                                      Cm 
Instead I'm hanging over Hell suspended by a single thread 

Chorus 
            Fm7                        Bb 
And I don't recall who said it at this time 
          Ab           Eb                 Bb 
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind 
           Fm7                     Bb 
I built it up and the wolf he came around 
              Ab                    Eb 
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed 
              G7/D 
He huffed and puffed, 
              Cm             Fm7   G7   Cm 
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down 

Instrumental 
Cm | Fm/C Cm | Cm | Fm/C Cm | 

VERSE 
       Cm                                  Ab7 
With a rolled up note I'm hovering on that line 
      Bb               G/B          Cm 
Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine 
      Cm                               Ab7 
And a little weed just to level me sometime 
          G7                                                Cm 
I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've cancelled out the time 

Chorus 
               Fm7                   Bb 
And still that saying gets inside my head 
          Ab           Eb                 Bb 
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind 
           Fm7                     Bb 
I built it up and the wolf he came around 
              Ab                    Eb 
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed 
              G7/D 
He huffed and puffed, 
              Cm             Fm7   G7   Cm 
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down 

BREAKDOWN 
         Am7/b5 
So don't knock on my door, don't try to call 
    Ab7 
I'm holed up in this room talking to the wall 
               Am7/b5 
When you're as high as this you think you know it all 
            Ab7                                   G G/A G/B G/A G7 
When you're this deep in there's no place else to fall 

Instrumental 
                   Cm | Ab7 | Bb G/B | Cm 
"I'm bottoming out" 
Cm | Ab7 | G7 | Cm 

Chorus 
            Fm7                        Bb 
And I don't recall who said it at this time 
          Ab           Eb                 Bb 
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind 
           Fm7                     Bb 
I built it up and the wolf he came around 
              Ab                    Eb 
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed 
              G7/D 
He huffed and puffed, 
              Cm             Fm7   G7   Cm 
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down 
               Fm7                   Bb 
And still that saying gets inside my head 
          Ab           Eb                 Bb 
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind 
           Fm7                     Bb 
I built it up and the wolf he came around 
              Ab                    Eb 
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed 
              G7/D 
He huffed and puffed, 
              Cm             Fm7   G7   Cm 
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down 
        Fm7   G7   Cm 
And the house fell down
