[VERSE}
C         G     C
While you were asleep
          F                 Am         Em   Am
Pulled my hood to block the light from the TV
           C7           Dm               Dm7
Turned the volume up to distract me from constant noises
G       F     Em   Dm       C
Leaking under the apartment door
   G       C
It doesn't help
      F              Am      Em         Am
I get up and I crawl out and don't hear more
       C7           Dm                  Dm7
Make a barricade of full trash bags and empty boxes
G         F          Em      Dm
Perched behind them, closely watching

C         G     C
While you were asleep
       F                 Am     Em      Am
On the couch, watching a movie, smoking weed
     C7                Dm             Dm7
Rummaging through the utensils in the kitchen counter,
G      F        Em          Dm
In the drainer, which one's sharper.
C        G            C
When the light creeps in
       F                 Am     Em    Am
loosen my grip and crawl back into my bed.
      C7             Dm          Dm7
Your alarm is set to go off in a half an hour.
G            F           Em       Dm
Eyes closed. Fake snore. None the wiser.
[CHORUS] (same chords as intro)
C         G         C        F     Dm
   Victoria made me happy
          C#dim   Dm7     G      C
Now I can only be scared
           G/B          G/Bb             A7
And people tell me that time can fix the wound.
           Dm
But that's crap.
             Dm7/C      G
'Cause she's not coming back
    G        C
And life's unfair.
           G           C            F      Dm
I'm always anxious and worried.
           C#dim           Dm7      G      C
I'm always freaked out and scared.
           G/B          G/Bb             A7
And people tell me that time can fix the wound.
           Dm
But that's crap.
        Dm7/C      G
Vicki's not coming back.
      G
And I scream

Dm             G
"Why did I get left behind?"
  Em             A
I know it's an exaggeration
Dm             G
to say I would rather die than
Em                    A          Dm
share this place with people capable
        G                  E7
of inspiring such fear and hopelessness
         Am     Am/C  G
that I'm frozen in my bed...
                     F
but that sums it up.

C       G    C
Teenage halloween
        F             Am      Em      Am
Hot safety pins in nozzles of shaving cream
          C7               Dm             Dm7
Spend the evening spraying cars, toilet papering houses
G          F       Em       Dm
What's the harm in smashing pumpkins?
C       G        C
Decades on, with kids
      F                   Am       Em
And I don't let them stay out past dark.
  Am         C7                 Dm
I sit on the front porch with a shotgun
              Dm7
While they're upstairs sleeping.
G     F
Total darkness.
Em       Dm
Love. Protection.

           Dm
But that's crap.
        Dm7/C      G
Vicki's not coming back.
    G        C
And life's unfair
