Make yourself at home, ‘cause I’m going out, Across the street to get us some water
‘cause this water’s brown, and I’m so embarrassed To have you here but I want you around
Usually I’d sing, or play you my guitar, But I know it won’t get very far with you
‘cause you like music that makes you move, And mine has a groove, but it’s nothing I can prove
Please know what I mean When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing,
When I say
Riff 1

Things that I buy and things that I think, Haven’t made this a better place to be
Drugs that I try and drinks that I drink, Haven’t made this a better place to be
It’s still just a room with the drums in the middle, A couch along the wall that works as my bed
I still have a phone that rings all day, I still have things I wish I would of said
Please know what I mean When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing, When I say-ay nothing,
When I say

Riff 2

This whole thing’s been hard on me, It breaks my heart, do you know what that means
My new place seems strange to me, It breaks my heart, do you know what that means
Strum C
It means nothing
