[verse 1]
Eb       Db
  I sit around and watch
    Eb
the tube but nothing is
Db Eb             Db
on   I change the channel's
       Eb         Db
for an hour or two
Eb           Db
  Twiddle my thumbs
           Eb
just for a bit
            Db
I'm sick of all the
         Eb
same old shit In
    Db
the house with unlocked
Eb                    Db
doors and I'm fucking lazy

[chorus]
Bb        Ab
  Bite my lip and
Eb       Bb
close my eyes
         Ab
Take me away
   Eb
to paradise
Bb
  I'm so damn
Ab        Eb
bored I'm going
Bb
blind and I
           Ab
smell like shit

[verse 2]
Eb        Db
  Peel me off this Velcro
Eb              Db
seat And get me moving
Eb          Db
  I sure as hell can't
      Eb       Db
do it by myself
Eb            Db
  I'm feeling like
         Eb
a dog in heat
         Db
Barred indoors from
            Eb
the summer street
                Db
I've locked the doors
          Eb
to my own cell and
              Db
I've lost the key

[chorus]
Bb        Ab
  Bite my lip and
Eb       Bb
close my eyes
         Ab
Take me away
   Eb
to paradise
Bb
  I'm so damn
Ab        Eb
bored I'm going
Bb
blind and I
           Ab
smell like shit

[bridge]
Eb          Db
I've got no motivation
Eb          Db
Where is my motivation?
Eb          Db
No time for motivation

Smoking my inspiration

Eb  Db

[verse 3]
Eb       Db
  I sit around and
          Eb
watch the phone
              Db
But no one is calling
Eb          Db
  Call me pathetic call
   Eb           Db
me what you will
Eb          Db
  My mother says
         Eb
to get a job
              Db
But she don't like
              Eb
the one she's got
           Db
When masturbation's
         Eb
lost its fun you're
        Db
fucking lonely

[chorus]
Bb        Ab
  Bite my lip and
Eb       Bb
close my eyes
         Ab
Take me away
   Eb
to paradise
Bb
  I'm so damn
Ab        Eb
bored I'm going
Bb              Ab
blind And loneliness
    Eb
has to suffice
Bb        Ab
  Bite my lip and
Eb       Bb
close my eyes

I'm tripping
 Ab     Eb
away to paradise
Bb          Ab
  Some say "Quit
   Eb      Bb
or I'll go blind"
                Ab
but it's just a myth
