[Verse]
A E
Well I've been staring at this lightbulb for over a week
F#m D
My eyes are burning and my legs are weak
A E F#m E
But that's the price I pay, for being a loner
A E
Well I could make a call tomorrow, say that I'm coming home
F#m D
I'm sorry baby I don't know who to phone
A E F#m E
But that's the price I pay, for being a loser
[Chorus]
A C#
Each night I'm dreaming, the sheets soaking wet
D Dm
Faces from the past, that I'd rather forget
A C#
I dream of Elvis, I dream of King Kong
D Dm
I gets more exagerated, the further I get along
A E F#m E
But that's the price I pay, for my imagination
[Interlude]

[Verse]
A E
I been staring at strange women who I'll never meet
F#m D
Undress them in my mind, from my head to their feet
A E F#m E
And that's the price I pay, for my obession
A E
Well you can get it if you want it, you can make it if you try
F#m D
You can climb up any mountain, if you're not afraid to die
A E F#m
Or that's the price you'll pay, for your anxiety
A E F#m
And that's the price I pay, for my notoriety
A E F#m E
And that's the price I pay, for my humanity
