E            D          E         D       E      D  E  D 
I've been sweeping the leaves out of my driveway 
E         D          E       D     E   D  E  D 
I've been living a good life up to now 
        A      G           A       G 
But the basket weaving and therapy sessions 
    A       G        A        G 
Are barely enough to dampen obsessions 
E          D       E         D      E    D  E  D 
I've been taking a cold bath on the hour 
 
E         D         G         A 
I've been sweet and I've been good 
         E         D               G        A 
Till you walked on home through my neighbourhood 
    E       D         G           A 
Now I watch you and I want you to know 
       E         D      G        A 
When I hold your hand I want let go 
      D            E    G   A 
I'm a walking, talking, ticking 
E  D   E   D    E    D  E  D  
Tiiiiiiiiiiiime Bomb 
 
 
I've been taking every ride from strangers 
Cause there ain't nobody, and I mean nobody stranger than me 
Here's one soul your system won't save 
Get me put down may be then I'll behave 
I've been living a good life up to now 
 
 
I've been watching the worl from out my window 
And I've been doing like the told me in the hosiptal, I hold my breath and count to ten 
But the thoughts I'm having defy description 
Tell me where in the hell did I put my perscription 
I've been having those strange dreams again
