C C G G C C G G
At ten in the morning I was laughing at something
C C G G D D
At the airport terminal
C C G G C C G G C C G G D D
At nine in the evening I was sitting crying to you over the phone
C C G G C C G G
While passing the border from a state to another
C C G G D D
Filled with people whom I couldn't help to relate to

And we stopped a while at a roadside restaurant
Where the waitress was sitting outside smoking in her car
She had that look of total fear in her eyes
And as we drove away from there she looked at me and she smiled

I keep running around, trying to find the ground
But my head is in the stars my feet are in the sky
Well I'm nobody's baby, I'm everybody's girl
I'm the queen of nothing, I'm the kii--ing of the world

Interlude backing chords: G G C C G G C C G G C C D D D D

And once you asked me well what's my biggest fear
That things would always remain so unclear
That one day I'd wake up all alone
With a big family and emptiness deep in my bones
That I would be so blinded, turn a deaf ear
And that my fake laugh would suddenly sound sincere

Now I wasn't born for anything
Wasn't born to say anything
I'm just here now and soon I'll be gone
I'm nobody's baby, I'm everybody's girl
I'm the queen of nothing, I'm the kiii--ing of the world

[Interlude again]

Now every day there's a short intermission
While I sleep they start dimming the lights
But I've seen everything I ever want to see
Screaming "FIRE!!" in the theater, people taking their seats
Watch it all go down like the stone in the stream
You fall for your reflection, you drown in the dream

Tell me something real, tell me something true
I just want to feel there's something left that I can do
But I'm nobody's baby, I'm everybody's girl
I'm the queen of nothing, I'm the kiii-ing of the world

[Another interlude, then the song ends with a G G]
