Am
I sit here alone
I sit here alone
D              Am
I look at the walls
Look at the walls
Look at the walls
                   D
I look at the walls

Am
You shouldn't be out on your own
                                 Adim7
Oh no not with a condition like that
Am
Oh no sir constant care
A condition like that, a condition so rare
A penny for the guy, a penny for your thoughts
                                  Adim7
One a penny, two a penny in your pocket
Am
Ding dong bell, who can tell
                 C               D
Wild Man Fisher got nothing on me

I sit by the water
I sit by the water
Watch it go by
Clouds going by
I'm watching the sky

C          D              Am
I left my luggage at the station
C            D              Em
Didn't know how to say goodbye
C          D               Am
I walked away from all the fury
         G               C
And the madness and the fury
         D               Em
And the madness and the fury
        D/F#
And the madness

I smile to myself
I smile to myself

You're on the blind side, I'm on the other side
Now I'm on the outside looking for another side
Upside down side, I'm still lucid
I may be crazy but I'm not stupid
Try to get out, the parking lot's full
No matter, no matter, what's a man going to do
One two buckle my shoe
Zip my lip
