[Intro] C9-5 Cdim7 C9-5 [Verse 1]
F#                            Bm7
Just look at the comfort that you call your home

F#                              Bm7
Just kidding yourself that you're never alone

    F#                               Bm7                            A
Well maybe there's something, there's one thing you shouldn't have said
D DM7 D7
  Cdim7
So you better beware

  C9                                   D
And you'd better get, and you'd better get light in your head

     C9                                 D
And you'd better get, and you'd better get peace in your bed

    C9                        D    DM7   D7  Cdim7
If you wanna get, if you wanna get high
[Verse 2]
  F#                               Bm7
You're watchin' the movie go blistering by

  F#                          Bm7
Just look at the sadness, I wish I could cry

   F#                         Bm7                                 A
Well maybe there's something, there's one thing that I should have said

                   D   Dm7   D7    Cdim7
Well it better be said
[Pre-Chorus]
C9                                   D
It's the beckoning, it's the reckoning holding your heart

    C9                               D
It's beginning to, it's beginning to squeeze you apart;

C9                                   D    DM7   D7 Cdim7
Don't you wanna get, don't you wanna get high?
[Chorus]
        G                          A     D
You're holding the world in the palm of your hand

         G                          A       D
What you're tellin' your children you don't understand

Oh you better beware

C9                                         D
And you'd better get, and you'd better get light in your head

And you'd better get, and you'd better get peace in your bed
