 Ebm(hold)
 Awwww, Break down!
                                  Bb/D      
 I've been breaking sweats in the night-time
 Ebm(hold) Bb/D Ebm(hold)
 I was growing my hair And I could not care
                          B                  
 What they think Cause my eyes were turned up
               G#/C            
 Like you tore open the ceiling
 Ebm(hold) Bb/D
 I've been singing songs in the night-time
 Ebm(hold) Bb/D Ebm(hold)
 I was banging my head And I could not care
                        B                  
 What they think I said don't open the door
 G#/C Ebm-Bb/D-C#-G#/C-B(palm mute)
 Even if you hear me screaming
 
 Chorus 1:
 F#                     G#m         
 I built a raft and got carried away
    Ebm                  C#/F                C# 
 In my new direction And there's where I stay
        F#                              G#m             
 Cause, you should have known That this boy wasn't grown
            Ebm              C#/F                
 So you can go away, Go away If you want to leave
 C# G#/C-B(hold)
 If you want to leave

 Verse 2:
 Ebm(hold)
 Now get down!
                            Bb/D         
 I was catching glimpses of bright lights
 Ebm(hold) Bb/D Ebm(hold)
 And they attracted my steps 'Till I was so scared
                         B                   
 Of what could be Hidden underneath the rocks
          G#/C             
 So we're never in position
 Ebm(hold) Bb/D
 I was singing songs of a lost mind
 Ebm(hold) Bb/D Ebm(hold)
 But I am still with my friends So I am not scared
                     B                  
 Of anything I said "don't open the door
      G#/C                     
 Even if you hear me screaming"
 
 Chorus 2:
 F#                  G#m         
 I met a boy who got carried away
    Ebm                  C#/F                  C# 
 In my new direction And there's where he stays
       F#                              G#m             
 Well, you should have known That this boy wasn't grown

 And now don't you hide

 'Cause you've got a treasure to find
               F#/B                     G#m         C#    
 So shed those leaves that you lie underneath (underneath)
         Ebm            
 And now don't you stray
                  B                   
 If you feel that you've lost your way

 I was growing my hair And I could not care
