[Intro] Am C F C x9 Am C N.C. Am C F C x2 [Verse 1]
Am      C           F    C
The mid-day sky was grey and purple

Am       C     F   C
At least it wasn't blue

Am     C          F      C
I want the sky to be the way I am

G          F
And what I do

Am         C      F        C
For I have been a lost and lonely

Am     C  F    C
Sailor on your sea

Am   C         F        C
Run aground by trusting signals

G                F
You were sending me

Am          C          F          C
The streets are filled with empty faces

Am      C    F  C
Nothing here is new

Am        C        F        C
It's just the same in other places

G                F
I have journeyed to

Am        C     F          C
I was the first across the water

Am       C      F   C
The last across the land

Am       C      F          C
I walked out of the silver mine

G                  F
My pockets full of sand
[Chorus]
Am   C F        C
Alone inside my head

Am      C       F    C
Alone inside my room

Am     C      F        C
I feel alone inside my head

G               F
Alone inside my tiny little world
[Instrumental] Am G5 C5 G5 Am G5 F5 G5 Am G5 C5 G5 F G5 G#5 Am [Verse 3]
Am       C          F         C
It's not my life in those old pictures

Am       C   F     C
The ones you threw away

Am    C          F       C
For I was always someone else

G              F
And always far away

Am      C      F       C
Walking in the darkest places

Am    C   F       C
Where the mission meets

Am      C              F       C
Waiting for the ground to open up

G          F
Beneath my feet
[Chorus]
Am   C F        C
Alone inside my head

Am      C       F    C
Alone inside my room

Am     C      F        C
I feel alone inside my head

G               F
Alone inside my tiny little world

Am   C F        C
Alone inside my head

Am      C       F    C
Alone inside my room

I feel alone inside my head

G               F
Alone inside my tiny little world
[Chorus]

Alone inside my head

Alone inside my tiny little world
