[Verse 1]
D
[tab]A              E
Please hold me close to you

D
Baby flat-line

A             E
Still time to do it too

D
Baby snack time

A            E
Chow down to earth but in your head

C                  G
She's a hoarder of quarters

And no boundary boredom-dum

E
Boundary boredom
[Chorus]
Em              C             D            G
I contend that your drinking eye has never opened

Em          C             D
I insist somebody will die

            G
And I hate hoping

Em               C               D
Wishing that the pills let you cry

           G
And I hate coping

Em             C              D
Someday I will go back outside

            G
And see her okay

Am G repeat

Please dial "9" to get out!

No flat-line

A             E
What were you scared about?

D           A
Baby sat by and felt the wind

E                 C                G
At least I called her a hoarder of quarters

D               A
And no boundary boredom-dum

E
Boundary boredom!
[Chorus]

C          F
Numb, feel burning with haste

C                            F
And I'm realizing now it's a terrible waste

And I'm realizing now it's a terrible waste

I feel numb, I've been burning with haste
