[Em]

 Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall
 stealing [bad word] the dark of night
 Climbing [bad word] a window, stepping to the floor
 checking to the left and the right
 Picking up the pieces, putting them away
 something doesn't feel quite right    
 
 
 Help me someone, let me out of here
 Then out of the dark was suddenly heard
 [bad word] to the Home by the Sea
 
 [bad word] out the woodwork, [bad word] the open door
 Pushing from above and below
 Shadows without substance, in the shape of men
 Round and down and sideways they go
 Adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair
 Then as one they sign and they moan
 
 Help us someone, let us out of here
 Living here so long undisturbed
 Dreaming of the time we were free
 So many years ago
 Before the time when we first heard
 [bad word] to the Home by the Sea
 
 Sit down Sit down
 Sit down Sit down
 As we relive out lives in what we tell you

 Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
 Things that go to make up a life
 Endless days of summer longer nights of gloom
 Waiting for the morning light
 Scenes of unimportance like photos in a frame
 Things that go to make up a life
 
 Help us someone, let us out of here
 Living here so long undisturbed
 Dreaming of the time we were free
 So many years ago
 Before the time when we first heard
 [bad word] to the Home by the Sea
 
 Sit down Sit down
 Sit down Sit down
 As we relive out lives in what we tell you
 Please let us relive out lives in what we tell you
 Sit down Sit down
 cos you won't get away
 so with us you will stay
 for the rest of your days. So sit down
 As we relive out lives in what we tell you
 Please let us relive out lives in what we tell you
