Cm | Fm/C Cm | Cm | Fm/C Cm |

VERSE
Cm Ab7
The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down
Bb G/B Cm
I'm more paranoid with every little sound
Cm Ab7
Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around
G7 Cm
And a siren wailing on the other side of town

VERSE
Cm Ab7
Oh the TV's on and the colors really hurt my head
Bb G/B Cm
If I could think straight I'd wish that I was dead
Cm Ab7
Or curled up naked in my lover's bed
G7 Cm
Instead I'm hanging over Hell suspended by a single thread

CHORUS
Fm7 Bb
And I don't recall who said it at this time
Ab Eb Bb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
Fm7 Bb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
Ab Eb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
Cm Fm7 G7 Cm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down

INSTRUMENTAL
Cm | Fm/C Cm | Cm | Fm/C Cm |

VERSE
Cm Ab7
With a rolled up note I'm hovering on that line
Bb G/B Cm
Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine
Cm Ab7
And a little weed just to level me sometime
G7 Cm
I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've cancelled out the time

CHORUS
Fm7 Bb
And still that saying gets inside my head
Ab Eb Bb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
Fm7 Bb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
Ab Eb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
Cm Fm7 G7 Cm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down

BREAKDOWN
Am7b5
So don't knock on my door, don't try to call
Ab7
I'm holed up in this room talking to the wall
Am7b5
When you're as high as this you think you know it all
Ab7 G G/A G/B G/A G7
When you're this deep in there's no place else to fall

INSTRUMENTAL
Cm | Ab7 | Bb G/B | Cm
"I'm bottoming out"
Cm | Ab7 | G7 | Cm

CHORUS
Fm7 Bb
And I don't recall who said it at this time
Ab Eb Bb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
Fm7 Bb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
Ab Eb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
Cm Fm7 G7 Cm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
Fm7 Bb
And still that saying gets inside my head
Ab Eb Bb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
Fm7 Bb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
Ab Eb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
Cm Fm7 G7 Cm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
Fm7 G7 Cm
And the house fell down
