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