Verse 1:

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

Verse 2: 

F                              Dm
You look so tired and unhappy, bring down the government,
Gm           C                       F
They don't, they don't speak for us...


Chorus 1: 

F                         Dm
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               F
No alarms and no surprises,...Silent....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 C C Gm 


Chorus 3:    

F                        Dm
Such a pretty house, and such a pretty garden 
     Gm            C
With no alarms and no surprises,
   Gm         C
No alarms and no surprises,
   Gm         C               F
No alarms and no surprises, please
