  			Intro: E D D A x7 
       E D D B 

A 
I ain’t gonna leave the building 
Just lie here and stare at the ceiling 
There’s nothing out there that can give me no healing 
And right now I’m the only one that can hurt my feelings 

G   D                 A  
I’m staying inside today 
G  D        A 
I’m hiding away 
        E7 
Oh yeah! 

A 
Let me tell you how it goes here in the big city 
There ain’t no mercy and there ain’t no pity 
And everywhere you turn there are hundreds of humans 
All opening the door saying ’Hello, Newmanâ?� 

A 
And hearing people hearing themselves talk 
I tell you those are fingernails where there should've been chalk 
I heard this one guy tell this other one to suck his cock 
And he was the richest, smartest guy on the block 

G   D             A 
Oh, I, leave me alone 
G D          A 
I, leave me alone 
E7 
Oh no no no no no 

E        D            D7  A 
’Cause I just want to be alone 
E        D              D7  A 
So don’t call me on the telephone 
E          D             D7  A 
Why in the world would I pay T-Mobile 
E                    D             D7  A 
When every day’s the same, feeling antisocial 
E                  D                 D7  A 
I’m minding my own business like I’m supposed to 
E             D             D7     E& 
So when I get home no one's coming over 
Shot down dead red rover, red rover, yeah! 

Solo (a braver man than I can tab this part)(same as intro) 

A 
People try to confuse me 
And people try to abuse me 
And people try to frustrate me 
And people try to castrate me 

A 
Uh-huh and people messing with my mental health 
I tell you they just do it cause they hate themselves 
And I've been walking around I'm try'na love myself 
And I don't wanna talk to anyone else 

G         D             A 
You know, I, leave me alone 
G D          A 
I, leave me alone 
  E7 
Leave me alone 

E      D       D7 A 
I just want to be alone 
E             D                 D7        A 
I don't wanna drown amongst the droves of drones 
E             D             D7    A 
I don't wanna hear that I'm what I own, oh no 
E             D         D7    A 
I don't wanna feel my Y-chromosome 
E                D         D7         A 
So don't look at me like I ain't full grown or 
E       D       D7    E 
Welcome to the terror dome 
Welcome to Hell 
Welcome home

Lonely Boy coming down the street, better get out the way 
                                                        E D D7 A  
The first person that he meets is probably going to pay I'd say definitely 
                                                        E D D7 A  
He woke up feeling like a loser, now he's itching to win 
           E D D7 A                              E  
Yeah he did it yesterday, now he's gonna do it again 
   E D D7 A          E D D7 A  
Hey,       stay away 
He hates,  to be awake 
Stay away, he doesn't wanna hurt you 
Stay away, he doesn't wanna hurt you
