Gm                    A#          C
His space crowds out your space, your space
Gm                     A#  C
Your space crowds out hers
Gm                 A#        C
Coffee breath and headphone hiss
     Gm            A#  C
But no one says a word

Eyes upon the paper headline
Refuge in your phone
Bumping shoulders, cough, and sniff
But no one says hello

Chorus:
 Gm   Dm
Woahhh
C
Excuse me while I run,
I really gotta get out of here
 Gm   Dm
Woahhh
C
Excuse me while I run,
I really gotta get out of here

My heart beats like yours does, hers does
My heart keeps good time
And every day, I mind the gap between you and me
Here comes someone else to share the air we breathe

Chorus:
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
Reach out for anyone
And they will tell you, "Get out of here"
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
I'm asking everyone
You gotta help me get outta here
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
Excuse me while I run
I really got to get out
(I really got to get out of here)

A#    C
Meanwhile
A#         C
Under the gun
A#      Gm
Hey everyone
     A#          Gm
Our work here is done

We out
You gonna come?
Hey everyone
Our work here is done

Chorus:
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
Excuse me while I run
I really gotta get out of here
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
Reach out for anyone
And they will tell you, "Get out of here"
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
I'm asking everyone
You gotta help me get outta here
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh
Excuse me while run
I really got to get out of here
