Intro: Dmaj7 E F#m D
Verse Dmaj7 E F#m D
ever since we moved here
I've been outnumbered, I swear
everything's wrong my accent,
my clothes, my eyes, the list is long
if I had a matchstick for
every dream turned into a nightmare
I'd build a horse and
kindly lead it to thunder
A D E A
heard them call me names, they called my name
D E A
from which all meaning's been drained
D E A D E F#m
for a laugh, the itch to abuse and humiliate
C#m Bm C#m
but I don't care, I no longer care
F#m C#m Bm D A
whatever I live for it's not there
Verse
I no longer go places
I only leave home
so well adjusted to the boredom
through which life flows
my little sisters, their well-known features
up on the bridge
where are they going and why
what do they think of life and love
A D E A
heard them call me names, they called my name
smiled and waved they saved my day
yes I could walk with them and yes I'd love too but
it won't happen I'm waiting for a flashlight to come
switch me back on again
then I'll try to catch up and then I'll call their names
