A                 E               A             D E
I see myself on T.V., I'm a faker, a paper clown
       A                                 E
It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie;
         A           D E
I just bring them down
         D                      E
I claim boldness to exaggeration
          D                    E
But the truth lies in my frustration
      D                              E
The children of the night, they all pass me by
         D
Got to drench myself in brandy
     E
In sleep I'll hide
But however much I booze

Chorus:
                    A  D A
There ain't no way out
             D      A  D A D
There ain't no way out
   A     E
I don't care what you say, boy
                    A D A D A D A D A
There ain't no way out

I lose so many nights of sleep
worrying about my responsibilities
Are the problems that screw me up
really down to him or me
My ego will just confuse me
Some day it's going to up and use me
Dish me out another tailor-made compliment
Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent
And however much I squirm

Chorus:
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out
Won't somebody tell me how to get out
of this place?!

Cmaj7                                       Em
And the night comes down like a cell door closing
Cmaj7                                         Em
Suddenly I realize that I'm writing now more honestly
D                                                          E
While sitting here all alone with a bottle and my head a-floating
 D                                               E
Far away from the phone and the conscience going on at me
And on at me, and I don't care what you say
                      A D A
There ain't no way out
             D      A D A D A
There ain't no way out

Now the walls are all clawed and scratched
like by some soul insane
In the morning I hungoverly detach myself,
I take no blame
I just can't face my failure
I'm nothing but a well-fucked sailor
You at home can easily decide what's right
By glancing very briefly at the songs I write
But it don't help me that you know

Chorus:
This still ain't no way out
Won't somebody tell me?
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
Give me the key
Give me the key
Give me the key
Give me the key
There ain't no way out [ad-lib to fade]
