     Am           C           D       Am
Oh, Glenn, don't come to the house tonight
     Am
Oh, Glenn, oh, Glenn
       C           D       Am
Don't come to the house tonight
Oh, Glenn
                 D
Because there's somebody here who really,
        Am
really loves you
Oh, Glenn
      E        F                    G
Stay home, be bored, It's crap, I know
   Am
Tonight

Oh, Glenn, oh, Glenn
Don't come to the house tonight
Oh, Glenn, oh, Glenn
Don't come to the house tonight
Because there's somebody here
Who'll take a hatchet to your ear
The frustration it renders me hateful, oh.

Am         G           D       Am
Oh, don't come to the house tonight
Am         C           D       Am
Oh, don't come to the house tonight

Because there's somebody here
Who'll take a hatchet to your ear

The frustration it renders me hateful, oh...
Oh, don't come to the house tonight
Oh, don't come to the house tonight
Because you'll slip on the trail of
all my sad remains
That's why, that's why goodbye my love,
goodbye my love
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love
