[Verse 1]
   F                           Dm
A heart that's full up like a landfill,
                   Gm         C                  F    Bbbm
A job that slowly kills you, bruises that won't heal...
    

[Verse 2]
 F                          Dm
You look so tired-unhappy, bring down the government,
 Gm          C                    F  Bbbm
They don't, they don't speak for us...

I'll take a quiet life, a handshake of carbon monoxide,
      Gm            C
With no alarms and no surprises,
 Gm            C
No alarms and no surprises,
 Gm            C
No alarms and no surprises,
 F      Bbbm
Silent...
 F      Bbbm
Silent...


[Chorus 2]
 F                        Dm
This is my final fit, my final bellyache,
      Gm            C
With no alarms and no surprises,
 Gm            C
No alarms and no surprises,
 Gm            C
No alarms and no surprises,
 F      Bbbm
Please...

[Chorus 3]
 F                        Dm
Such a pretty house, and such a pretty garden 
 Gm            C
No alarms and no surprises,

No alarms and no surprises,

No alarms and no surprises
 F      Bbbm
