   I see myself on TV, I'm a faker,  a paper clown 
    :A                               :E7sus4   E7    
It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie,  
      :A                :Dv Dv Dv->E E 
I just bring them down 
       :D                  :E7sus4  E7 
I claim proneness to exaggeration 
       :D                   :E7sus4  E7 
But the truth lies in my frustration 
   :D                              :E7sus4    E7 : 
The children of the night, they all pass me by 
       :D                         :E7sus4          : E7       
Have to dress myself in brandy, in sleep I'll hide 
           :E7sus4       :E7    
But however much I booze 
                  :A    D/A   :A              D/A   :A    D/A   :A   D/A 
There ain't no way out            There ain't no way out 
       :E7sus4                 :E7                   :A   D/A  :A   D/A 
I don't care what you say, boy     There ain't no way out

I lose so many nights of sleep worrying
