Verse:

A         C     G
It’s four o’ clock the TV’s on
A              F        G
My mind is shut off and my own thoughts are gone
A          C      G
I change the channel I change my mind
  F            G
I change my life I want to leave it all behind

Chorus:

   A  E     C     G
Cause I don't have a mind of my own
   E          F      G

  A E   C    G
And I can't help it now

Everything in my life just thinks for me

Verse:

A               C       G
Can't help this habit I'm in love with my disease
A              F       G
Worshipping my idle time a life I cannot seize
A               C    G
Trapped by depression and I sleep all day
   F             G
But Xanax, Valium, Ativan will make it all ok

   A    F      C    D
It's so much more than a cry for attention
  F   C     G     A
No loving hands can soothe this ache
E    F      C      D
So much more than a war with the world
    F            E
It's my own degradation, it's my own self hate

A        F
I’ll preach my pessimism
 A        F       G
Right out loud to anyone who'll listen
A     F      G
I'm not afraid to be alive
E
I'm afraid to be alone

Solo:

A F G x3
E A

Verse:

 A    E    C    G
Late at night my monsters find me
   A     E     F   G
From under the bed or out of my past
A   E      C    G
All alone with nobody to talk to
F      E
Sanity gets put to the test

A     E     C     G
I close my eyes but I'm still haunted
   A    E    F     G
Sometimes I get too twisted to sleep
  A    E       C      G
As all my world crumbles all around me
   F            E
Inspiration becomes admission of defeat

   A E      C     G
Cause I don't have a mind of my own
A E      C     D
I don't have a mind of my own
A E      C     G
I don't have a mind of my own

F         E          A
Everything in my life just thinks for me
