[Verse 1]
        Em                      G        C
These crickets are driving me insane tonight
   B                                               Em
Despite all my efforts to pollute the air, their babble is branded in my mind
        Em                       G                  C
The ceaseless and grotesque rumblings of the naked night
   B                                              Em                  B
Accent and underline, all the horrors I've been working so hard to deny


[Chorus]
                 C             D              G F E
Don't ever you worry dear, as long as I'm amused
               C             D              G F E
I'll be too busy for my writhing, doom, and gloom
          C           D              G F E
So if I ever seem to be too deep in thought
            C                 D       G F E
Perhaps to numb the pain we turn the TV on

[Verse 2]
 Em                                   G                   C
What's that, love? You don't like to just sit there and watch?
  B                                                      Em
While I retreat into the depths of hell while there's a single second off
  Em                            G         C
I know it, it probably doesn't seem like much
   B                                                  Em              B
But here's a quick smile to let you know I haven't completely fallen off


[Chorus]

                 C             D              G F E
Don't ever you worry dear, as long as I'm amused
               C             D              G F E
I'll be too busy for my writhing, doom, and gloom
          C           D              G F E
So if I ever seem to be too deep in thought
            C                 D       G F E
Perhaps to numb the pain we turn the TV on
