Lyrics and Chords

Intro: 0:01
A | Asus4 | Asus2 | A  - x4

Verse 1: 0:31
A             Dsus4
  I hear the door-bell
 D        Dsus4 D
Ring and suddenly
     A             Asus2
The panic takes me,

A              Dsus4 D
  The sound so ominously
 Dsus4     D
Tearing through
     A      Asus2
The silence.
0:50
A           Am
  I cannot move, I'm standing
 Em
Numb and frozen
                            D
Among the things I love so dearly,

A
  The books, the paintings
         G
And the furniture.
D  A
  Help me!

Verse 2: 1:18
A               Dsus4
  The signal's sounding
D      Dsus4    D
Once again and someone
  A                Asus2
Tries the doorknob.

A              Dsus4        D
  None of my friends would be
   Dsus4  D
So stupidly
   A      Asus2
Impatient,
1:37
A                 Am
  And they don't dare to come here
Em
Anymore now.
                            D
But how I loved our secret meetings,

A
  We talked and talked
          G
In quiet voices.
D   A
  Smiling.

Chorus 1: 2:08
 A               G
Now I hear them moving,
 D       A
Muffled noises coming
                     G
Through the door, I feel I'm
  D         A
Crackin' up.

                G
Voices growing louder,
D    A
Irritation building,
                  G
And I'm close to fainting,
  D         A
Cracking up.
2:22
                   G
They must know by now I'm
D          A
In here, trembling in
                G
A terror ever growing,
  D         A
Crackin' up.

                   G
My whole world is falling,
 D      A
Going crazy.
                      G
There is no escaping now,
      D         A ->
I'm cracking up.

Instrumental: 2:36

(x2)
D | A | Asus4 | A | Asus4

Verse 3: 3:15
A                   Dsus4
  These walls have witnessed
D       Dsus4   D
All the anguish of
   A        Asus2
Humiliation

A               Dsus4    D
  And seen the hope of freedom
  Dsus4   D
Glow in shining
 A    Asus2
Faces.
3:33
A                  Am
  And now they've come to take me,
 Em
Come to break me,
                      D
And yet it isn't unexpected.

A
  I have been waiting
           G
For these visitors
D  A
  Help me!

Through the door, I feel I'm

Crackin' up.

                G
Voices growing louder,

Irritation building,

And I'm close to fainting,

Cracking up.

They must know by now I'm

A terror ever growing,

There is no escaping now,

I'm cracking up...
