Tom: D
Introdução:
Dm
A flicker of a light in an empty home
C
Bickering at night and you end up cold
Em
I wanna let the right brain retain control
Am
The rhyme inspires most when it's 5 minutes old
Dm
There's a feeling that I get when it's sad and it's grey
C
Reminds me of times way back in the day
Em
They wouldn't call me back, they didn't wanna play
I ask my stepmother if it ever goes away
Dm
So I'm sending you a message with text
C
That doesn't really say it's an SOS
Em
Yes so I guess that I press those numbers
Am
To summon for a presto, grow less number
Dm
Looking forwards I spring into summer
C
And wonder if you would lay around like lumber
Em
And supports me like a funder
Paying attention to my pain and tension
Dm
We all have forces pulling us under
C
But somewhere beneath this world torn asunder
Em
We smell the storm before the thunder
Am
And bring angles down to earth like sunder
Em Am
And when it bursts, the loneliness hurts like hunger
Dm C
Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
Em Am
Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
Dm C
Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
Em Am
Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
Dm
Where did my joy go?
C
I'm chewin' at its vapors
Em
Hiding from the light
Am
With this basement as my base
Dm
The opposite of a smiling face
C
I pile on disgraces
Em
Say amazing grace
Am
To chase down whatever this taste is
Dm
I'm a tweeter with a blown cone
C
Wonder where the bass is
Em
Drawn to you on a path of penciled promises
Am
Found my feet inside erasers
Dm C
Praises to Rafael and St. Rita
Em
Try to breathe and gasp
Am
Try to seize and grasp, and breathe my last
Dm C
Don't even ask if you can counsel me
Em
I'm a lone wolf so I wear wolf wear wool
Am
Like lycanthropy
Dm
Cut connections with irreverence
C
I slither in and sever us
Em
I wanna be the boy who lived
Am
But never have no trust to give
Dm
I must admit through busted lips
C
I've sunken ships and rusted bridges
Em
Cut slow to the quick
Am
And lost myself to split decisions
Dm
Multiply by my divisions
C
Round down for the placement
Dm
Who's he? Just me
Am
Alone in that basement
Dm C
Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
Em Am
Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
