[Intro 1]
[C][Bm][Em][Bm][D][C][G][Bm][Em]
[D][C][Bm][Em][D][C][G][Bm][Em]
[G][D]
I [Em]wake alone,

[Verse 1]
[Em]
in a woman's [G]room I hardly know.
[C]I w[Em]ake alone and pretend
that I am fi[C]nally home.
The room is [G]littered with
[Em]her books and [D]notebooks.
[G]I i[C]magine what t[G]hey say, like,
[Em]'shoo fly, don't bothe[G]r me."
And [C]I can hardly get myself

[Verse 2]
[G]
out [Bm]of h[Em]er bed,
For [G]fear of [C]never lying [G]in this [Bm]bed [Em]again.
Oh [D]christ, [G]I'm [C]not [Bm]that[Em]
des[D]perate am I?
[C]Oh no [Bm]- oh god [Em]I am.

[Verse 3]
How'd I end [B]up here to begin [Em]with?
I don't [G]know. [C]why do I s[B]tart
what I can't fin[Em]ish?
[C]Oh, please don't barrage me with he ques
[B]tions to [Em]all those ugly an[D]swers.
[G]My [C]ego's like my stomach[B]
It [Em]keeps shitting what I feed it.
[C]But maybe I don't want to fin[Bm]ish
any[Em]thing any[C]more
Maybe I can wait in [Bm]bed until she
comes [Em]home and
[D]Whispers,
[C]"you're [B]in [Bm]my we[Em]b no[D]w - [C]I've co[Bm]me to wr[Em]ap you up tight 'til it's
[D]time to bite down."
[C][G][Bm][Em][Bm][D][C][G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
[G]I[D][C][G][Bm][Em][G][D][C][G][Em]
[G]wak[D]e
alone in a wo[G]man's room I [C]hardly know.
[G]I wake [C]alone and pre[G]tend that I am fi[C]nally home.
[G][Bm][Em][G][D][C][G][Bm][Em][G]
[D][C][G]
[Bm]Home
