  There's someone at my frontdoor
	                                        
and he's raising his voice: is there anybody home?
                      
  Now there's a question I like,
                                               
kept me up and I have been thinking all night long.

                        
  Summertime gonna cut my hair now,
                              
and ask a friend to die it red.
                                   
  Spent my days watching girls in the park;
                            *
I'm just trying to fill my head.

           
  Yes I hate to admit
                                          
but I miss you like hell miss you every day.
                 
  And yes I hate to be asked
                                              
cause everytime they do I don't know what to say

                           
  I need someone to come and save me,
                             
when I'm wrapped up in my world.
                       
  Need someone to poke a finger
                     
in the places where it hurts.

                       G? (not to sure about this one)	    D
Baby it's driving me mad I need your warm hands back on my head,
          	             
hear you say: it's alright alright


(let's rock) A / A / A ...


                    
  I felt myself slipping back
                                             
I could feel the old man grab me by the throat.
                      
  He slowly squeezed out the air
                                             
made me look like a fool, chokin' every word

                         
  I know tonight I lost the fight,
                                    
pulled the blankets way over my head.
                                
  Had the old man stand guard at the door,
                          
checked for ghosts under my bed,

 		      ?				    
baby it's driving me mad and I don't think I can take it anymore.
                            
Hey old man can we cease the war.
                            
Hey old man can we cease the war.
