[Verse 1]
                   Dm
Dressed in a white gown
    A
My chest is tightening
Bb
All the nice nurses
    C
Are nursing me nicely

           F
They said, "We're going on a trip now
        A
We're gonna have a good time
         Bb
Take a journey on a gurney
      C
It's gonna be a smooth ride

[Chorus]
Dm           C                 F         Bb
When I hit my veins and the lights went out
   Dm       C         F     Bb
I took a ride on a merry go round
     Dm         C            F       Bb
And when I woke up you were standin' there
Dm                         C
You asked if I was feelin' okay
Dm                      C
I said I feel quite the same

[Verse 2]
               Dm
My life is so basic
    A
My life is just a movie
        Bb
But the story's kinda boring
 C
Bitter and amusing

      F
I'm tryina break the cycle
     Am
But nothin' ever changes
           Bb
Isn't it amazin'
C
Fallin' in place again

[Chorus]
Dm           C                 F         Bb
When I hit my veins and the lights went out
   Dm       C         F     Bb
I took a ride on a merry go round
     Dm         C            F       Bb
And when I woke up you were standin' there
Dm                         C
You asked if I was feelin' okay
Dm                      C
I said I feel quite the same

[Bridge]
     Dm          C         F      Bb
And surely I'll see the sunshine soon
    Dm         C            F      Bb
And then I'll come out from in my room
   Dm        C              F        Bb
To tell the world that the world is wrong
Dm              C
Pretend that I belong
Dm              C
Pretend that I belong

Dm C Dm C Bb C Bb C F

[Outro]
Bb   Am  Gm   F
Take my life away
Bb   Am  Gm   F
Take my life away
Bb   Am  Gm   F
Take my life away
Bb   F   Gm   F
Take my life away
