Intro: E C#m G#m
 
E C#m G#m
Don’t want order, it won’t come
E
There’s no why that it goes on
C#m G#m
I was tied and I’m undone
A
I’ve got all that you don’t want
E A
You want order I want more
E A
You want it all and all of it’s yours
E B
You want shelter, I get a room
 
E C#m G#m
I get a room, my confusion leaves me cold
E
I’ve got nothing here to hold
C#m G#m
All that’s gold will never shine
A
It was nothing, never mind
E A
I want time, I want it now
E A
My confusion’s getting me down
E B
You want shelter, I get a room
 
E C#m G#m
I get a room, what of yours is there to keep?
E
To be there when you sleep
C#m G#m
I’m not here to tie your feet
A
Hold a hand upon your sleeve
E A
There’s a nail to hang the wall
E A
It pays to lose it all
E B
A note to hide behind the door
E C#m G#m
I get a room
 
E C#m G#m
 
A E A E A E B
 
E C#m G#m
Where you sleep, I laid awake
E
I saw every time you fake
C#m G#m
I held on the hand that takes
A
And you hate it when I break
E A
You want order, I want more
E A
You want it all and all of it’s yours
E B
You want shelter, I get a room
E C#m G#m
I get a room
 
E C#m G#m
 
A E A E A E B
 
E
I get a room
