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