D A Bm
Like a child I can sit in the corner
G D A
with these pills I can barely get by
D A Bm
so I wait for the hour of approval
G A D
ten minutes until it's five
D A Bm
And it's Friday, so I don't feel so lonely
G D A
I know the wolves are out tonight
D A Bm
the sound of ice in a bottomless glass
G A D
tells me that all that is fine
Bm G
Playing guitar and I'm forgetting words
D A
like a baby who just learned to speak
Bm G
unfinished songs that I swear I'd get done
D A
but the premise was just kind of weak
D A Bm
Like the moon you are cold, you are distant
G D A
like the sun I can burn through the day
D A Bm
in the valley the echo gets longer
G A D
they've all gone away
Bm G
Playing guitar and I'm forgetting words
D A
like a baby who just learned to speak
Bm G
unfinished songs that I swear I'd get done
D A
but the premise was just kind of weak
(softly)
D A Bm
There is time to reflect and ponder
G D A
as the chips fall where they may
D A Bm
I will live for the sake of others
G A D
so they can do the same

F
2 weeks left, the world is wasted
Dm
There's nothing poetic about it

The fact is that I'm looking for a friend

An old man walks down the road and he stops to look

At his reflection from the window of a car by light of moon

Pretty, perfect houses all lined up and stripped away

Of any words that they had to say of anything that is true

She put a sign out on her lawn that said that she's speakin' up

But that god damn schedule just won't let up

And bills, they don't bend or even move

She says "I'm just burnin' time, let myself unwind till my life comes undone"

C Em
Tired and awake
Am G
Write words you really mean without mistake
F
Push the pen until it doesn't work no more
G C
It's empty outside the door
C Em
Partially insane, Roman candle
Am G
Come and guide me through the dark
F
I'll be walking through the horror I once knew
G C
That wasn't really much
- Chorus:
Dm
This isn't a long catastrophe

It's all just a passing phase you'll see

And though I am scared of the sun light

I'm not scared if you're the night

Stumblin' to find the light switch on the wall

This time I swear it

D
our pockets are empty
A
the signal is lost
G
too many low times
D
at such a high cost
D
suddenly walking
A
no destination plan
G
the will so hard to hold
D
slips out of our hands
Bm
to much conversation
A
we're losing our voice
G
it's justification
D
for lack of a choice
Bm
the penniless preacher
A
the king of the hill
G
expired prescription
A#
that we couldn't fill
D
the trigger is so soft
A
and easy to squeeze
G
A miscalculation
D
missed enormously
D
a fruitless ambition
A
it would appear
G
i know a place that sells pride
D
not far from here
Bm
an aborted mission
A
that couldn't be saved
G
awards for submission
D
so nicely engraved
Bm
so perfect the world is
A
without any view
G
the smallest of hope is
A#
the biggest excuse
D A Bm
suddenly a change
A G
on expired time
A#
of an empty thought
D A Bm
systematic flaw
A G
in an open wound
A#
that nobody saw
