[Verse 1]
E A
Tired of sleeping on the sidewalk
A B E
Working at the bus stop night 'til morning
A
Tired and waiting for the sunlight
A B E
When it comes, it's still dark where I'm going
[Pre-Chorus]
E A
Don't
E
Don't punish me for what I feel
A
Don't
E
Don't punish me for what I feel
[Chorus]
A E
So I crawled out of the back door
B
Took off all these tight clothes
A
Jumped into the water
E
So I crawled out of the back door
B
Took off all these tight clothes
A
Jumped into the water
E B
I jumped into the water
A E
The water
[Verse 2]
E A
Vicious demons on the TV
So I sold it on 16th St
E
But I still hear the drone
A
Now I'm 'bout to get off this night shift
Do you think I could get a lift?
E
I don't care where you're going
[Pre-Chorus]
E A
Don't
E
Don't punish me for what I feel
A
Don't
E
Don't punish me for what I feel
[Chorus]
A E
So I crawled out of the back door
B
Took off all these tight clothes
A
Jumped into the water
E
So I crawled out of the back door
B
Took off all these tight clothes
A
Jumped into the water
E B
I jumped into the water
A E
The water
[Bridge]
E Ab
My face was numb, my lungs were sore
A Ab E
But still I swam until my feet could touch the shore
Ab
Now I've been sleeping on your porch
A Ab E
I'm still too scared to bust the lock on your door
[Chorus]
A E
So I crawled out of the back door
B
Took off all these tight clothes
A
Jumped into the water
E
So I crawled out of the back door
B
Took off all these tight clothes
A
Jumped into the water
E B
I jumped into the water
A E
The water
