C        Em            F
Watch me sit upon the rocks
           C              Em
Watch my skin and feel my soul
          F
Till it gets old
C       Em            F
Lay up here upon the rocks
         C                Em
Wishing you would not get old
         F
When it gets cold

C       Em            C
Lay up here upon the rocks
          Em              C         Em    F
Watching people who watch over my shoulder
     C                       Em F C
Till I get a little bit older

Chorus:
C      E    F      C
Panic panic everywhere
C    E          F        C
Everyone does stop and stare
C      E       F        C
Excitement it comes and it
     E            F
Goes on till everyone gets gone

Woke up late and went to school
I grazed my knees and hit my head
The blood was red
I saw a person on the floor
I'd never seen the lights before
Or so I said

Just here sittin' on the rocks
Watchin' people who watch over my shoulder
'Til I get a little bit older

Chorus:
Panic, panic everywhere
Everyone does stop, does stare
Excitement, it comes and it
Goes on 'til everyone gets gone

Panic, panic everywhere
Everyone does stop, does stare
Excitement, it comes and it
Goes on 'til everyone gets gone

Panic, panic everywhere
Everyone does stop, does stare
Excitement, it comes and it
Goes on 'til everyone gets gone
