Redecorate

[Intro] C#m  B

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

C#m
Taking inventory of his life

Seeing snapshots

Chronologically inline
B
Something told him he should look

Around and tidy up

He collected many things

But never quite enough
C#m
Tried looking at it

From a new perspective

Flat on his back

But he still heard the directive
B
Orders from that corner

Where that shadow always lived

Never asked permissions

He just hopes that they forgive

                E
I don't want to go like this
        C#m
At least let me clean my room
                G#m
I don't want to leave like this
           F#
'Cause the last thing I want to do 
is
E
Make my people make decisions
C#m
Wondering what to do, oh
B
Should they keep it on display
F#
  Or redecorate?

C#m
Blankets over mirrors, she tends to 
like it

She's not afraid of her reflection

Continúa después del anuncio
But of what she might see behind it
B
She had plans to change her name, 
yeah

Just not the traditional way, yeah
C#m
Haunted by a couple big mistakes

She covers all the dents

With the way she decorates
                        B
Then one night she got cold

With no blankets on her bed

So she ripped them off the mirror

Stepped back and she said

                E
I don't want to go like this
          C#m
At least let me clean my room
                G#m
I don't want to leave like this
            F#
'Cause the last thing I want to do 
is
E
Make my people make decisions
C#m
Wondering what to do, oh
B
Should they keep it on display
F#
  Or redecorate?

( C#m  B )

         G#m
With the bells

And the whistles scaled back

Like an isolated track

And he feels trapped when

He's not inebriated

Fair to say he's fairly sedated
                  D#5
Most days of the week

He might have made it if he lived

On a different street
   G#m                          
I repeat, scaled back and 
(C#m)
isolated
   G#m
He says he likes an open schedule

But he mostly hates it

If you're running to his room

Take a breath before you break-in

Put your ear up to the door

Tell me can you hear him saying?

                E
I don't want to go like this
         C#m
At least let me clean my room
                G#m
I don't want to leave like this
            F#
'Cause the last thing I want to do 
is
E
Make my people make decisions
C#m
Wondering what to do, oh
B
Should they keep it on display

                E
I don't want to go like this (go 
like this)
         C#m
At least let me clean my room
                G#m
I don't want to leave like this 
(leave like this)
            F#
'Cause the last thing I want to do 
is (to do is)
E
Make my people make decisions

Or redecorate?
