                                Nothing

(Tune down 1/2 step)
                     C                     E
    Make yourself at home, cause I'm going out
               F                     G
    Across the street to get us some water
    Cause this water's brown, and I'm so embarrassed
    To have you here, but I want you around

    Usually I'd sing, or play you my guitar
    But I know it won't get very far with you
    Cause you like music that makes you move
    And mine has a groove, but it's nothing I can prove

                                 F
              Please know what I mean
                        C         F
              When I say, nothing
              When I say, nothing
              When I say, nothing
                         G
              When I say

    Things that I buy and things that I think
    Haven't made this a better place to be
    Drugs that I try and drinks that I drink
    Haven't made this a better place to be

    It's still just a room with the drums in the middle
    A couch along the wall that works as my bed
    I still have a phone that rings all day
    I still have things I wish I would of said

              Please know what I mean
              When I say, nothing
              When I say, nothing
              When I say, nothing
              When I say

                      C                       F
                      This whole thing's been hard on me
                         C               F                      C     F
                      It breaks my heart, do you know what that means?
                                                                       C F

                      My new place seems strange to me
                      It breaks my heart, do you know what that means
                               C
                      It means nothing

    So make yourself at home, I'm going out
    Across the street to get us some water
    Cause this water's brown, and I'm so embarrassed
    To have you here, but I want you around

    Usually I'd sing, or play you my guitar
    But I know it won't get very far with you
    Cause you like music that makes you move
    And mine has a groove, but it's nothing I can prove

              Please know what I mean
              When I say, nothing
              When I say, nothing
              When I say, nothing
              When I say

                      This whole thing's been hard on me
                      It breaks my heart, do you know what that means?

                      My new place seems strange to me
                      It breaks my heart, do you know what that means
                      It means nothing...
