As recorded by The Who (From the 1975 Album THE WHO BY NUMBERS) [Intro] A D A D A D A D A (x2) [Verse 1]
A                Esus4    E       A              D E
I see myself on T.V., I'm a faker, a paper clown

     A                                   Esus4    E            A           D E
It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie; I just bring them down

        D                       Esus4 E
I claim boldness to exaggeration

            D                   Esus4 E
But the truth lies in my frustration

    D                                    Esus4 E
The children of the night, they all pass me by

       D
Got to drench myself in brandy

    Esus4          E
In sleep I'll hide

            Esus4        E
But however much I booze
[Chorus]
N.C.               A   D A
There ain't no way out

            D      A   D A D
There ain't no way out

  A     Esus4 N.C.             E
I don't care what you say, boy

N.C.               A   D A D A D A D A
There ain't no way out
[Verse 2]
A                          Esus4     E                 A          D E
I lose so many nights of sleep worrying about my responsibilities

        A                        Esus4 E                        D E
Are the problems that screw me up      really down to him or me

   D                       Esus4 E
My ego will just confuse me

     D                        Esus4 E
Some day it's gonna up and use  me

     D                             Esus4  E
Fish me out another tailor-made compliment

    D                        Esus4         E
Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent

            Esus4         E
And however much I squirm
[Chorus]
N.C.               A   D A
There ain't no way out

            D      A   D A D
There ain't no way out

  A     Esus4 N.C.             E
I don't care what you say, boy

N.C.               A   D A D A D A D
There ain't no way out

A                        D               A
Won't somebody tell me how to get out of this place?!
[Interlude] D A D A (x8) [Bridge]
Cmaj7                                        Em
And the night comes down like a cell door closing

Cmaj7                                           Em
 Suddenly I realize that I'm writing now more honestly

D                                                     Esus4    E
 While sitting here all alone with a bottle and my head a-floating

     D                                             Esus4
Far away from the phone and the conscience going on at me

    E                     Esus4             E
And on at me, and I don't care what you say

N.C.                   A D A
There ain't no way out

            D      A   D A D A
There ain't no way out
[Verse 3]
A                                Esus4
Now the walls are all clawed and scratched

     E              A    D E
Like by some soul insane

       A                           Esus4  E
In the morning I hungoverly detach myself

     A             D E
I'll take no blame

  D                      Esus4 E
I just can't face my failure

    D                         Esus4  E
I'm nothing but a well-fucked sailor

       D                 Esus4       E
You at home can easily decide what's right

   D                            Esus4         E
By glancing very briefly at the songs I write

                     Esus4         E
But it don't help me that you know
[Chorus]
N.C.               A   D A
There ain't no way out

            D      A   D A D
There ain't no way out

  A     Esus4 N.C.             E
I don't care what you say, boy

N.C.               A   D A D A D A D
There ain't no way out

A                  D   A D A
There ain't no way out
[Outro] A D A D (x8)
