Black Room Boy

Ebm

         Ebm
It's the same old scene
You've been stuck at the screen for 
   Bbm
a lifetime.
              Gb
You keep your mind sharp and clean
                               Ab
With a fix of caffeine for the night
 time.

          Ebm
You got a page full of friends
                             Bbm
In a world without end, D.I.K.U.?
       Gb
But if push comes to shove
                                 Ab
You can do without them if they make
 you.

     Ebm
With all this poison inside
     Bbm
It's much too late to decide.
                Gb
You've got your mind made up,
You've been living a lie in your 
Ab
white room.

    Ebm
For all the hours that you've cried
          Bbm
There's a year of love they denied.
        Gb                      
So you slip through the door and 
                           Ab
fall to the floor in your black 
room.
                        Ebm
You're a black room boy.

                     Bbm      
You're feeling so weighed down 
                          Gb
(You're a black room boy)
                        Ab     
Forget the losses and burn down 
                          Ebm
(You're a black room boy)
                 Bbm
Fall into city lights (You're a 
black room boy)
Gb              Ab   Ebm
Nothing else is easy.

                Ebm
You kissed your mommy's hand
Wearing daddy's ring when they left 
Bbm
you,
        Gb                         
And you buried yourself in the pain
                       Ab
 that they couldn't accept you.

            Ebm
You're in a world of your own
Got no cellular phone - they can't 
Bbm
track you.
        Gb
But the girl at the store, with the 
sketchy rapport,
         Ab
She will back you.

     Ebm
