Verse 1:
D/C     C           D/C
Children in bloom, cooking in the sun
       C
Waiting for a room of our own
D/C         C
Leave my sister alone

She doesn't deserve this

She is a flower and I am a flower
         Am7
And we are all alone

I gotta get out on my own
 G           D    Cadd9     Am7
I gotta get up from this waiting, waiting at home
 G           D
I gotta get out of this sunlight

It's melting my bones
 G           D        Cadd9
I gotta get up from this slumber and just get myself home

D/C           C
All these wasted dreams
            D/C
Just waiting for the sun to open
   C
To open up my heart to anyone
D/C      C
Bring me some rain
        D/C
Because I'm dying, I'm dying
      C           Am7
And I can't get this damn thing closed again

I gotta get out of this sunlight

It's melting my bones

I gotta get up from this slumber and just get myself home

Where's the fun house this year?

The fairground's deserted and the skies don't seem as near
  D/C        C
But Nicole's my oldest friend

But the altar is empty and she'll never be a little girl again
