G#                  Cm
I don't need an education
G#                    Cm
I learned all I need from you
G#                      Cm
They got me on this medication
G#                       Cm
My point of balance was askew
C#                      A#m
Keeps my tempature from rising
C#                           F#
My blood is pumping through my viens

Chorus:
A#               C
Somebody get me out of here
     D#           C
I'm tearing at myself
A#              C
Nobody gives a damn about me
    D#     D#m
Or anybody else

I wear myself out in the morning
You're asleep when I get home
Please don't call me self-defending
You know it cuts me to the bone
Though it's really not surprising
I hold a force I can't contain

G#                     D#
And still you call me codependant
Fm           C#
Somehow you laid the blame on me
G#                     D#
And still you call me codependant
Fm           C#
Somehow you laid the blame on me

Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
I've got to make a point these days
To extricate myself

Chorus

G#                     Cm
And still you call me codependant
G#           Cm
Somehow you laid the blame on me
G#                     Cm
And still you call me codependant
G#           Cm
Somehow you laid the blame on me
G#           Cm
Somehow you laid the blame on me
G#           Cm                  G#
Somehow you laid the blame on me
