F C G Have you ever been so lonely, F C G No one there to hold? F C G Pull me in or disown me, Em Am And then climb inside. Em Am My arms are open wide. Em G Have a look inside. It is not that I am scared to learn Just why I'm empty inside Just hold my hand or show some concern If I live or die My eyes are open wide Help me look inside I hear the water drip from the faucet It's sweetly falling in tune, oh no I'm gently closing the closet And I fall to the floor And crawl to my room The thought of ending it soon Just let me sleep in my room F C G F C G F C G Hear me cry! cry! cry! F C G I hear a knock at the front door. Don't come in! F C I try to look at you G But I can't stop shaking. F C G Leave me alone. Just go away. Em Am Mother I'm so scared. Em Am Em G I´m so scared Empty bed but all of my sheets are gone They're wrapped around me and you All is quiet but the drop of my gun 'Cause I, I want to belong to someone But maybe life's not for everyone You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  Em  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
