Capo 3
[Verse]
G C G
The lite-brite's now black and white
Am Em
Cause you took apart a picture that wasn't right
Bm C
Pitch burning on a shining sheet
Am C
The only maker that you'd want to meet
G C G
The dying man in a living room
Am Em
Whose shadow paces the floor
Bm C
He'll take you out any open door
[Chorus]
Am C
This is not my life
G
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
It’s not what I like
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
Who couldn’t get things right
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
[Verse]
G C G
He said really I just wanna dance
Am Em
Good and evil matched perfect it's a great romance
Bm C
I can deal with some psychic pain
Am C
If it'll slow down my higher brain
G C G
Veins full of disappearing ink
Am Em
Vomiting in the kitchen sink
Bm C
Disconnecting from the missing link
[Chorus 2]
Am C
This is not my life
G
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
It’s not what I like
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
Who couldn’t get things right
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
G C G
I see you're leaving me
Am Em
And taking up with the enemy
Bm C
The cold comfort of the in between
Am C
A little less than a human being
G C G
A little less than a happy high
Am Em
A little less than a suicide
Bm C
The only things that you really tried
[Chorus]
Am C
This is not my life
G
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
It’s not what I like
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
Who couldn’t get things right
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C
This is not my life
G Em
It’s just a fond farewell to a friend
Am C G
