The E tends to be a seventh fret barre chord
Intro: E D D A x7
E D D B
A
I ain’t gonna leave the building
Just lie here and stare at the ceiling
There’s nothing out there that can give me no healing
And right now I’m the only one that can hurt my feelings
G D A
I’m staying inside today
G D A
I’m hiding away
E7
Oh yeah!
A
Let me tell you how it goes here in the big city
There ain’t no mercy and there ain’t no pity
And everywhere you turn there are hundreds of humans
All opening the door saying “Hello, Newman”
A
And hearing people hearing themselves talk
I tell you those are fingernails where there should've been chalk
I heard this one guy tell this other one to suck his cock
And he was the richest, smartest guy on the block
G D A
Oh, I, leave me alone
G D A
I, leave me alone
E7
Oh no no no no no
E D D7 A
‘Cause I just want to be alone
E D D7 A
So don’t call me on the telephone
E D D7 A
Why in the world would I pay T-Mobile
E D D7 A
When every day’s the same, feeling antisocial
E D D7 A
I’m minding my own business like I’m supposed to
E D D7 E&
So when I get home no one's coming over
Shot down dead red rover, red rover, yeah!
[Solo] (a braver man than I can tab this part)(same as intro)
A
People try to confuse me
And people try to abuse me
And people try to frustrate me
And people try to castrate me
A
Uh-huh and people messing with my mental health
I tell you they just do it cause they hate themselves
And I've been walking around I'm try'na love myself
And I don't wanna talk to anyone else
G D A
You know, I, leave me alone
G D A
I, leave me alone
E7
Leave me alone
E D D7 A
I just want to be alone
E D D7 A
I don't wanna drown amongst the droves of drones
E D D7 A
I don't wanna hear that I'm what I own, oh no
E D D7 A
I don't wanna feel my Y-chromosome
E D D7 A
So don't look at me like I ain't full grown or
E D D7 E
Welcome to the terror dome
Welcome to Hell
Welcome home

Lonely Boy coming down the street, better get out the way
E D D7 A
The first person that he meets is probably going to pay I'd say definitely
E D D7 A
He woke up feeling like a loser, now he's itching to win
E D D7 A E
Yeah he did it yesterday, now he's gonna do it again
E D D7 A E D D7 A
Hey, stay away
He hates, to be awake
Stay away, he doesn't wanna hurt you
Stay away, he doesn't wanna hurt you
A
A lonely boy is an angry boy
