Intro: G C (x2) 

#1. 
        G                           C                G    C 
Well, I walked to the river just to ease my troubled mind. 
      G                          C                 G 
And I thought about leavin' this cardboard world behind. 
   Bm        Em                C 
My paperdoll princess has just blown out on the door.. 
A                         D 
leavin' nothing more than me. 


    C       G        F       C                  G 
And now the water is over my head and I keep on sinkin' like  
   F        C 
my soul was lead. 
        G           Bm                C        G     
And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack..but I'm  
C      Bm             Am    D          G             C 
in too deep and there ain't no turnin' back..no, no, no, 
        G             C 
turnin' back, no, no, no. 

#2. 
        G                        C                 G C 
Ah, the breeze in the trees just Whisperin' Louise today. 
            G                            C                  G 
And you can take back your rib cause I'm really not made of clay. 
   Bm        Em               C                            A 
My ice-cream dreams have just melted in the night..I'm not standing  
                  D 
here to fight the tide. 


    C       G        F       C                  G 
And now the water is over my head and I keep on sinkin' like  
   F        C 
my soul was lead. 
        G           Bm                C        G     
And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack..but I'm  
C      Bm             Am    D          G             C 
in too deep and there ain't no turnin' back..no, no, no, 
        G             C 
turnin' back, no, no, no. 

#3. 
      G                           C                            G   C 
Well, everybody's tellin' me that this is wrong and that ain't right. 
    G                       C                     G 
But that can't be because I saw the sunshine last night. 
   Bm              Em                  C 
My crystal ball is blazin' but there's nothing there to see..oh, there's 
A                     D 
nothing left of me to see. 


    C       G        F       C                  G 
And now the water is over my head and I keep on sinkin' like  
   F        C 
my soul was lead. 
        G           Bm                C        G     
And the world on my shoulders gettin' ready to crack..but I'm  
C      Bm             Am    D          G             C 
in too deep and there ain't no turnin' back..no, no, no, 
        G             C 
turnin' back, no, no, no.
