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