Intro: E


         E    A                 E             C#m
Piece of dirt,  that is all I'm standing on today

         E    A           E                 C#m
Piece of dirt,  the whole world has slipped away


        F#m               C#m
I would climb the highest mountain just to

F#m         E
Jump into a fountain

      A   B      E         C#m
Or to fly,   I'd fly away


  F#m                  C#m
A woman's voice on the radio

       A                   E
Can convince you you're in love

  A                    E
A woman's voice on the telephone

       A                  B
Can convince you you're alone

      C#m             E
But I set my sails so long ago

          A                 F#m
They've revoked my sailor's badge

              A
Said I should be content and happy

        A   A    A     B E
On this ink spot where I stand


         E    A                 E             C#m
Piece of dirt,  that is all I'm standing on today

         E    A           E                 C#m
Piece of dirt,  the whole world has slipped away

F#m               C#m
I find myself haunted

     A                E
By a spooky man named me

  A         B                      E
I wish that I could jump out of my skin
