Make yourself at home, 'cause I'm going out, Across the street to get us some water
CEFG
'cause this water's brown, and I'm so embarrassed To have you here but I want you around
CEFG
Usually I'd sing, or play you my guitar, But I know it won't get very far with you
CEFG
'cause you like music that makes you move, And mine has a groove, but it's nothing I can prove
FCFCFCF
Please know what I mean When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing,
G

CEFG
Things that I buy and things that I think, Haven't made this a better place to be
CEFG
Drugs that I try and drinks that I drink, Haven't made this a better place to be
CEFG
It's still just a room with the drums in the middle, A couch along the wall that works as my bed
CEFG
I still have a phone that rings all day, I still have things I wish I would of said
FCFCFCF
Please know what I mean When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing,
G
When I say

This whole thing's been hard on me, It breaks my heart, do you know what that means
CFCFCF
My new place seems strange to me, It breaks my heart, do you know what that means
Strum C
It means nothing
