(D) G# Fm
Well I?ve been slackjawed, awestruck
C# D#
carryin? on
G# Fm
but I?ve been cornered, and broke down
C# D#
plenty before
C# G#
But I just can?t seem
C# G#
To find a dream
C# G#
nice enough to hold up
D#
to that light
G# Fm
Well I?ve been half-dead, rotten
C# D#
and over my head
G# Fm
I?ve been sleepwalking, shit-talking
C# D#
Forgetting again
C# G#
But it?s hard to be
C# G#
So inbetween
C# G?D#
The truth and alibis
Prechorus:
Fm C#
Why?s it always have to be?
Fm C#
Half mangled and muddy dreams
Fm C# D#
Tryin? to get things off my mind
Chorus:
G# D#
Staring at a blank page
C# Fm
drowning in the ashtray
A#m C# D#
Trying to make the words come out right
G# D#
And if I can?t make it
C# Fm
I?ll do my best to fake it
A#m C# D#
Trying to make a living out of dyin?
Fm C#
Ooooh, ooh-oh-oooh
Fm C#
Oh, Ooooh-oh-oooh
Fm C#
Oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
D#
Oooooooooh
