VERSE 
    Cm                                      Ab7 
The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down 
         Bb            G/B          Cm 
I'm more paranoid with every little sound 
         Cm                             Ab7 
Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around 
      G7                                 Cm 
And a siren wailing on the other side of town 

VERSE 
       Cm                                    Ab7 
Oh the TV's on and the colors really hurt my head 
           Bb                 G/B             Cm 
If I could think straight I'd wish that I was dead 
   Cm                            Ab7 
Or curled up naked in my lover's bed 
            G7                                      Cm 
Instead I'm hanging over Hell suspended by a single thread 

Chorus 
Fm7 Bb And I don't recall who said it at this time Ab Eb Bb That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind Fm7 Bb I built it up and the wolf he came around Ab Eb He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed G7/D He huffed and puffed, Cm Fm7 G7 Cm He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
Instrumental Cm | Fm/C Cm | Cm | Fm/C Cm | VERSE Cm Ab7 With a rolled up note I'm hovering on that line Bb G/B Cm Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine Cm Ab7 And a little weed just to level me sometime G7 Cm I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've cancelled out the time Chorus
Fm7 Bb And still that saying gets inside my head Ab Eb Bb That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind Fm7 Bb I built it up and the wolf he came around Ab Eb He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed G7/D He huffed and puffed, Cm Fm7 G7 Cm He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
BREAKDOWN Am7/b5 So don't knock on my door, don't try to call Ab7 I'm holed up in this room talking to the wall Am7/b5 When you're as high as this you think you know it all Ab7 G G/A G/B G/A G7 When you're this deep in there's no place else to fall Instrumental Cm | Ab7 | Bb G/B | Cm 'I'm bottoming out' Cm | Ab7 | G7 | Cm Chorus
Fm7 Bb And I don't recall who said it at this time Ab Eb Bb That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind Fm7 Bb I built it up and the wolf he came around Ab Eb He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed G7/D He huffed and puffed, Cm Fm7 G7 Cm He huffed and puffed and the house fell down Fm7 Bb And still that saying gets inside my head Ab Eb Bb That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind Fm7 Bb I built it up and the wolf he came around Ab Eb He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed G7/D He huffed and puffed, Cm Fm7 G7 Cm He huffed and puffed and the house fell down Fm7 G7 Cm And the house fell down
