Intro
    x2

Verse
                        
In the morning, when i’m woken
                  
By the sound of my alarm
                   
Stretching out my arm
                           
I want to screw it up in my palm 

                     
And i’ve taken this route to work
                   
A thousand times or more
                             
And when you’ve seen it all before
                         
you tend to get a little bored 

Chorus
                             
They’ve got the keys to all my doors (They’ve got the keys to all my doors) 
                    
They hold my where and when (They hold my where and when) 
                    
So I guess I’ll always be (I guess I’ll always be) 
                   
Hopelessly devoted to them 

Verse
                       
In the office when i’m working
                        
There’s a funeral atmosphere
                      
I know I lost someone dear
                     
But i didn’t see him disappear 

                   
And i’m lying in my bed
                  
Cos its keeping me awake
                          
And you think theres no escape
                            
They’ve bound me up in their tape 

Chorus
                             
They’ve got the keys to all my doors (They’ve got the keys to all my doors) 
                    
They hold my where and when (They hold my where and when) 
                    
So I guess I’ll always be (I guess I’ll always be) 
                   
Hopelessly devoted to them

Chorus
                             
They’ve got the keys to all my doors (They’ve got the keys to all my doors) 
                    
They hold my where and when (They hold my where and when) 
                    
So I guess I’ll always be (I guess I’ll always be) 
                   
Hopelessly devoted to them
