Verse 1:

G                                         Am
Todays been a career day futures made and fortunes lost.
       G                                     Am
As I'm standing in the lobby waiting for the elevator to take me away-
G                          Am
up to nine or ten or maybe eleven.
G                                         Am
The sound of sirens fading as she whispers in my ear.


Chorus:
               Am               D
She's saying, "It's too late to wish sucess,
Am                   C                   G    C
so get undressed and please just come to bed.
Am                    D
Cuz I'm the last real thing you've got,
Am               C             G
you're cursed by all ambitious thought.
   C                G
Is that all you've got?"


Verse 2:

As for you, you spin a story like a spider spins a web.
See that's a metaphor, no wait, a simile.
I'm still learning but I think I'm getting better.
Oh if im not tortured how are we ever going to relate?


Chorus 2:

I've been condemned by those I love -
wishing me the worst as I try my best.
But she's the last real thing I've got.
I'm cursed by all ambitious thoughts.
Is that all youve got?

Cm              G
love close your eyes
Cm                    G
and cover, cover your ears -
        A
for the end is near.
            Cm       G         C G C
But the beggining is here.



G                                         Am
In with the outro and out with the old


(Repeat the line above about a million times, then end it...)


Am                       G     
We'll be together in the morning
