Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]
[C]I think I really miss my bed[F]
Oh, [C]when, oh, [Am]when
will the [C]nightmare [F]end?[C]
I had it good, I had [F]it good
And [C]yet I [Am]left
and [C]can't re[F]trace [Ab]my s[G]teps
[Ab]My s[Ab]teps[G][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]You're gonna be eaten [F]by a coy[C]ote
[Am]Run, little one, though the [F]pack may follow
[C]Two quite thin, their [F]brother [C]fatter
[Am]He can still win, just g[F]otta be faster[C]
[Db][D][Db][Abdim][Adim]
[C]Run for the yard, they've [F]barred up the [C]gutter
[Am]That was our route, better [F]find another
[C]Was that a rab[F]bit? Really not[C] like the one[Am]
I'vе seen on a [F]cereal box

[Chorus 1]
[E]And the bir[Am]ds don't tal[F]k
Likе the [C]ones on [E]screen
Have they [Am]really domes[F]ticated [C]me?[E]
And the [Am]birds don't [F]talk
Like the [C]ones on [E]screen
Have they [Am]really domes[G]ticated me?

[Interlude 1]
[C][Db][D][Db]
[C][Db][D][Db]

[Verse 2]
[C]Cotton tail, gonna [F]end up in [C]jail
Wrong [Am]place, wrong time
Bad [F]tune but it rhymed
And [C]lined up perfect[F]ly to [C]blame
The one who is far too tame
And he say
"Out, let me in, let me in, let me out
Stop tellin' me all about your problems
I been to hell, still in, get me out
Whatever they are,
I don't know how to solve 'em"
[C]"Out, let me in, let me [F]in, let me [C]out
[Am]Stop tellin' me all a[F]bout your problems
[C]I been to hell, still in,[F] get me [C]out
Whatever they are,

[Chorus 2]
I don't know how to solve 'em"
[E](Oh) Say, is [Am]that the kid
[F](Ooh) From the [C]milk carton?
[E](Ooh) Can I do [Am]anything
When I'm [F]also miss[C]ing?
[E](Oh) Something [Am]tells me, kid
[F](Ooh) Never [C]learned to swim
[E](Ooh) But can I do [Am]anything
When I'm [G]also drown[C]ing?

[Verse 3]
[C]Think I forgot a couple thi[F]ngs
My [C]brain is [Am]still at [C]home
Home's [F]far away
[C]I really thought that life was one[F] big rac[Am]e
But now I [C]know it's [F]one [C]big [C]chase

[Chorus 3]
[Am]You can still win, just [F]gotta be faster
