E C# G#m G#m
[Verse]
E C# G#m G#m
And when I opened up the lid, I found the box was full of worms,
E C# G#m G#m
And worms were always as a kid the things I felt sorry for most,
E C# G#m G#m
As when you cut a worm in half, it still goes on without its head,
E C# G#m G#m
I still go on without my heart its just I wish that we were.
[Pre-Chorus]
E C# G#m G#m E C# G#m G#m
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things ive never said)
E C# G#m G#m E C# G#m G#m
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead)
[Chorus]
E G#m F# E C#m G#m F# E
She said, Im not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to children on the phone,
C#m G#m F# E G#m F# E
And I'm well, over self delusion, let me find a happy place to rest.
[Verse]
E C# G#m G#m
And when I opened up the top I found the box was full of words,
E C# G#m G#m
And words were always getting stuck they lose themselves behind the tears,
E C# G#m G#m
And tears are always coming loose, I find I need to get a grip,
E C# G#m G#m
G# grip on something warm and living, like a human catalyst.
[Pre-Chorus]
E C# G#m G#m E C# G#m G#m
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things ive never said)
E C# G#m G#m E C# G#m G#m
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead)
[Chorus]
E G#m F# E C#m G#m F# E
She said, Im not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to children on the phone,
C#m G#m F# E G#m F# E
And I'm well, over self delusion, let me find a happy place to rest.
[Verse]
E C# G#m G#m
And when I opened up the lid I found the room was full of girls,
E C# G#m G#m
And girls were always as a kid the things that scared us all the most,
E C# G#m G#m
And mostly I was scared of her, the one who saw through my disguise,
E C# G#m G#m
The one who saw that I was sore and wanted her to dry my eyes.
[Pre-Chorus]
E C# G#m G#m E C# G#m G#m
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things ive never said)
E C# G#m G#m E C# G#m G#m
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead)
[Chorus]
E G#m F# E C#m G#m F# E
She said, Im not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to children on the phone,
C#m G#m F# E G#m F# E
And I'm well, over self delusion, let me find a happy place to rest.
[Outro]

Oh, let me find a happy place to rest
G#m F# E F# G#m F# E F#
Oh, Let me find a happy place, I know that there’s a happy place,
