Dm C Bb Am

Just down the street from your hotel, baby

Dm C Bb

I stay at home with my disease

Dm C Bb Am

And ain't this position familiar, darling

Dm C Bb

Well, all monkeys do what they see

Gm Bb

Help me stay awake, I'm falling...

Down on Virginia and La Loma

Where I got friends who'll care for me

You got an attitude of everything I ever wanted

I got an attitude of need

Help me stay awake, I'm falling...

CHORUS:

F C Gm

Asleep in perfect blue buildings

F C Gm

Beside the green apple sea

F C Gm Bb

Gonna get me a little oblivion, baby

F C Bb 1.| Dm 2.| F

Try to keep myself away from | me | (myself and) me

| |

It's 4:30 A.M. on a Tuesday

It doesn't get much worse than this

In beds in little rooms in buildings in the middle

of these lives which are completely meaningless

Help me stay awake, I'm falling...

(CHORUS)

INSTRUMENTAL:

F C Gm Bb

F C Gm Bb

I got bones beneath my skin, and mister...

There's a skeleton in every man's house

Beneath the dust and love and sweat that hangs on everybody

There's a dead man trying to get out

Please help me stay awake, I'm falling...

(CHORUS) x3
