Intro: D A F#m E (x4)
verse 1
D A F#m E
It’s an eerie feeling I can’t quite describe,
D A F#m E
Clearing out a house, pondering a life,
D A F#m E
Voyeuristic, masochistic, I can’t quite decide,
D A
That old clock keeps ticking,
F#m E
But the time is never right,
D A
I caught a glimpse of my reflection,
F#m E
The night that you got sectioned,
D A
A pregnant pause by the hospital bed,
F#m E
Contemplating what you said,
D A F#m E
When you said “misery, misery, misery loves company”
D A
I caught a glimpse of my reflection,
F#m E
And the image stayed with me.
Instrumental
D A F#m E (x2)
verse 2
D A F#m E
The atmosphere was different from before,
D A F#m E
A cold foreboding feeling like a Wendy Carlos score,
D A F#m E
Gearing up for winter at the Overlook hotel,
D A F#m E
Shovels for the snow, frozen where we fell.
D A
I caught a glimpse of my reflection,
F#m E
The night that you got sectioned,
D A
A pregnant pause by the hospital bed,
F#m E
Contemplating what you said,
D A F#m E
When you said “misery, misery, misery loves company”
D A
I caught a glimpse of my reflection,
F#m E
And the image stayed with me,
D
It stayed with me.
Instrumental: D A F#m E (x8)
