Verse 1
C 
When I get up in the morning,
it seems like it's gonna be a
good day to me.
Then by the time I get to school,
things turn into problems for me.
And then by the time I get home,
I'm so tired
I don't even feel young anymore.
I wish my father
would come back with my mother.
I wish they'd stop killing people
G 
C

C 
G 
around my block.
C 
Darkness come down now,
hardly can see,
G 
C 
I feel a darkness
G 
C 
G 
rising in me,
C 
out on the outside,
Csus4 
C 
That's   where I've been,
out on the outside.
G 
Let me come in.
C 
Look through the window,
Csus4 
Bb 
give     me some light.
Ab 
Tell me you love me,
Csus4 
say it's alright.
C 
Csus4 
Open the door now, I lost my key.
Bb 
Ab 
Shut out the darkness,
Csus4 
Gsus4 
G 
rising in me.
Csus4 
C 
I keep on knocking,
no one is there.
Csus4 
C 
The windows are black
G 
and the walls are open
C 
I stand in darkness, followed by fear
Csus4 
C 
Csus4 
C 
Tell me I'm      dreaming,
Csus4 
C 
G 
tell     me you're here
C 
Look through the window,
Csus4 
give     me some light
Bb 
Ab 
Tell me I'm home now,
Csus4 
say      it's alright
C 
Out on the outside,
Csus4 
that's   where I've been
Ab 
Csus4 
Father and father, let      me come in
C 
Are fire escapes for frightened people?
Ready to creep,
crouch from one inferno to another?
Since men and rats are the
only beings
that purposely destroy their own kind
Csus4 
G 
And      we exterminate rats,
what does that make us?
Csus4 
C 
I        like to lay in on my bed,
Csus4 
looking up at the stars.
I wonder what's really out there.
I'm growing old so fast,
and there's no time in life
to really do anything.
C 
Csus4 
The last thing I remember
G 
is my hand hanging over the side of my bed,
and my brother playing with it.
C 
This is what I think about.
I guess you do not understand
me in the way I think.
F 
Some people say I'm a nut.
G 
C 
Oh man, if that's what they think,
I do not care what they think.
G 
C 
I know only what I like
and do not want anyone
G 
to make me think different in any way
C 
I guess I like to think about the stars
G 
C 
Hardly can see I feel a  darkness
G 
Rising in me
C 
Csus4 
Out on the outside
C 
Csus4 
C 
That's where I've     been
Out on the outside,
Csus4 
C 
F 
G 
let me come in
C 
Good through her,
Csus4 
good through all people,
Ab 
She'll live and carry us on,
Bb 
Csus4 
Bb 
Csus4 
Fading away,
C 
Fading out,
Bb 
Csus4 
Outside and        stay,
Ab 
Mother and father,
Csus4 
And mother   and mother,
Ab 
Csus4 
We  come, we       come, we come
