Intro: E  G#m   (3x), E  G#m 


verse 1: 
F#m       G#m 
   I rode down 
       A 
to the tracks 
B 
Thinking that 
C#m        G#m 
they might sing 
     F#m 
to me   But they 
G#m         A 
just stared back 
B        C#m 
  Broken trainless 
    G#m           E E/G# 
and black as night 


verse 2: 
F#m 
   Climbed out 
G#m     A 
onto my roof 
   B 
So I'd be a 
C#m  G#m 
poet in the night 
F#m         G#m 
   Beat the walls 
       A 
off my room 
B         C#m 
I saw the big room 
     G#m 
that is this life 


Chorus 1: 
G#m              E 
   This is my condition 
C#m          E/G# 
Naked and hysterical 
A 
Reaching to grab a 
          B 
hand that I just 
slapped back at 
G#m              E 
   This is my condition 
C#m 
Desperate alone 
    E/G# 
Without an excuse 
  A 
I try to explain 
B 
Christ what's the use? 


Post Chorus: E  G#m  (4x)


verse 3: 
F#m         G#m 
   Read and I 
felt so small 
B 
Some words keep 
 C#m 
speaking When 
G#m 
you close the 
    F#m 
book   Drank and 
G#m         A 
just about smiled 
B        C#m 
Then I remembered 
   G#m        E E/G# 
us in that bed 


verse 4: 
F#m       G#m 
   Put my ear 
       A 
to the door 
B 
I just heard 
C#m 
hot rods 
    G#m 
and gunshots 
and sirens 
F#m       G#m 
   People kill 
         A 
me these days 
        B 
There's keys 
         C#m 
in their eyes 
         G#m 
But they lock 
from the inside 



G#m              E 
   This is my condition 
C#m          E/G# 
Naked and hysterical 
A 
Reaching to grab a 
          B 
hand that I just 
slapped back at 
G#m              E 
   This is my condition 
C#m 
Desperate alone 
    E/G# 
Without an excuse 
  A 
I try to explain 
B               B B B 
Christ what's the use?
