G D Em Pre-Verse Lick C9
Hey golden boy, don't let the darkness into, take you away from yourself
Nobody [G/B]else, there's nobody [Am]left to make you [G]run
[C9]Somebody new, maybe it's [G/B]you, only bere[Am]ft of meaning
[G]One of these [D]days, you're going to [Em]wake up wondering [G]how it went [D]down
[G]Then in a [D]daze, you're going to [Em]make up something
Pre-Verse Lick C9
And wallow around in your room
Maybe it's [G/B]soon, or maybe it [Am]won't be for some [G]time (maybe it won't be for some time)
I hope you'll [C9]be thinking of [G/B]me, and I hope you [Am]won't be lonely
Chorus:
[G]Hang your [A]head,[Em] but don't let your [C9]hair fall out
Just [G]hang your [A]hat,[Em] at somebody else's house
Verse 2:
[G]Game, set and [D]match, I have to [Em]give that to you, [G]you are the [D]man
[G]Wait, there's a [D]catch, everyone [Em]sees right through you
Pre-Verse Lick C9
But that was the plan all along
Just tell me I'm [G/B]wrong, tell me you [Am]wanted something [G]else (Tell me you wanted something more)
You entered the [C9]code that made you [G/B]explode, now I hope you [Am]won't be lonely [Bm7]anym[C9]ore
Chorus:
[G]Hang your [A]head,[Em] but don't let your [C9]hair fall out
Just [G]hang your [A]hat,[Em] at somebody else's house
Bridge:
[Bm7]No, no, [C9]no; you're not a quitter
So [D]don't, don't, don't, [Em]don't you be bitter
[Bm7]Go, go, [C9]go where you'll glitter away

[G]Hang your [A]head,[Em] but don't let your [C9]hair fall out
Just [G]hang your [A]hat,[Em] at somebody else's house
Ending:
[G] [A] [Em] A[C9]t somebody else's house
[G] [A] [Em] A[C9]t somebody else's house
