Intro: Em G D
-----

Verse:
-----
Bm D
Are you feeling that down today?
Bm D
Is there nothing anybody can say?
Em G
Is there not one place where you feel comfortable?
Em G D
Put your feet up and feel full – of what life is

Bm D
And are you feeling that the future has passed?
Bm D
And left you in its path
Em G
Like a hurricaine through a Florida town
Em G D
Where all the tall trees just fell down

Bm D
And are you feeling that you just can’t move
Bm D
That you got nothing left to prove
Em
And that you passed the test
G Em
You lasted longer then the rest – in the open field
G D
Where the lightning had the best chance
A
Of getting hit

Chorus:
-------
Em G D
Of getting blissed out in the Land of Nod
Em G D
Of getting blissed out in the Land of Nod
Em G
Of getting blissed out in the Land
Bm G
Blissed out in the Land
Em G D
Blissed out in the Land of Nod

Verse:
-----
Bm D
Are you feeling like you’ve been betrayed?
Bm D
Like the universe doesn’t pay?
Em G
To the high and mighty and the down and out
Em
To the last man standing
G D
And the first man out of the game

Bm D
Are your mistakes coming back?
Bm D
They’re like rabbits jumping out of the hat
Em
And that’s the hat you wore
G
When you were on the floor
Em G D
Rolling and tumbling just once more for effect
A
Like the president elect

Chorus:
-------
Em G D
Of getting blissed out in the Land of Nod
Em G D
Of getting blissed out in the Land of Nod
Em G
Of getting blissed out in the Land
Bm G
Oh, Blissed out in the Land
Em G D
Blissed out in the Land of Nod

Brigde:
-------
Em G
Like ozymandias and another god
D Bm
Trading jokes at the high five pod
Em G
Why don’t bears eat clowns
A
‘cause they taste funny

Verse:
------
Bm D
Are you seeing that grey in the sky
Bm D
Do you feel like you’re going to die?
Em
Well not really now
G
At least you hope that’s how
Em
You’ll change the course of fate
G
Who do you hate?
D
Besides yourself
A
And what else

Chorus:
-------
Em G D
You’re getting blissed out in the Land of Nod
Em G D
You’re getting blissed out in the Land of Nod
Em G
You’re getting blissed out in the Land
Bm G
Blissed out in the Land
Em G D
Blissed out in the Land of Nod
