Dm F
This place is a prison
Dm F
And these people aren't your friends
Dm F
Inhaling thrills through bills
C C
And the tumblers are drained and then flooded again
A# - C - Dm - F
And again Over no lyrics

A# - C - Dm - F
Over no lyrics


Dm F
Ther're guards at the on ramps
Dm F
armed to the teeth
Dm F
And you may case the grounds from the cascades to puget sound
C C
But you are not permitted to leave


A# C Dm F
I know there's a big world out there like the one i saw on the screen
A# C Dm A#
In my living room late last night It was almost too bright to see
A# C Dm A#
And i know that it's not a party if it happens every night
A# C
Pretending there's glamour and candelabra
Dm Dm
When you're drinking by candlelight

[2 Measures of silence, or Am]
