-Verse 1: 

Em            F                Fm7               C
  This is the place you end up when you lose the chase

             Fm6                  E7
Where you're dragged against your will

       Am              F
From a basement on the hill

    G           F
And all anybody knows is you're

C   C/B  Am
Not like them

         Dm              A      G
And they kick you in the head

             >A      >B
And send you back to bed

-Pre-Chorus 1:

Isolation pulls you past a tunnel to a bright

World where you can make a place to stay


-Chorus: 

# Play intro again, go to C6/9 chord instead of E at the end

But everybody's scared of this place and stayin' away

Your little house on Memory Lane


-Verse 2:

    Em              F         Fm7               C
The mayor's name is fear, his force patrols the pier

       Fm6'             E7        Am           F
From a mountain of cliche that advances every day

    G              F         C      C/B  Am
The doctor spoke a cloud, he rained out loud

          Dm                 A
Keep your doors and windows shut and swear you'll

G            >A    >B
Never tell a soul again but


-Pre-chorus 2:

Isolation pushes you till every muscle aches

Down the only road it ever takes


-Chorus:

But everybody's scared of this place and stayin' away

Your little house on Memory Lane


-Bridge:

Am'                E/Ab        C/G            D9
   If it's your decision to be open about yourself

               F'
Be careful or else

               Fm
Be careful or else


-Verse 3:

    Em           F              Fm7           C
I'm comfortable apart, it's all written on my chart

      Fm6'              E7      Am         F
And I take what's given me most cooperatively

  G              F              C   C/B  Am
I do what people say and lie in bed all day

     Dm           A  G              >A    >B
Absolutely horrified, I hope you're satisfied


-Pre-chorus 3:

Isolation pushes past self-hatred guilt and shame

To a place where suffering is just a game


-Chorus:

But everybody's scared of this place and stayin' away

Your little house on Memory Lane
