Capo 1st fret
[Intro] D Bm G A
[Verse 1]
D A Bm
Like a child I can sit in the corner
G D A
with these pills I can barely get by
D A Bm
so I wait for the hour of approval
G A D
ten minutes until it's five
D A Bm
And it's Friday, so I don't feel so lonely
G D A
I know the wolves are out tonight
D A Bm
the sound of ice in a bottomless glass
G A D
tells me that all that is fine
[Chorus]
Bm G
Playing guitar and I'm forgetting words
D A
like a baby who just learned to speak
Bm G
unfinished songs that I swear I'd get done
D A
but the premise was just kind of weak
[Verse 2]
D A Bm
Like the moon you are cold, you are distant
G D A
like the sun I can burn through the day
D A Bm
in the valley the echo gets longer
G A D
they've all gone away
[Chorus]
Bm G
Playing guitar and I'm forgetting words
D A
like a baby who just learned to speak
Bm G
unfinished songs that I swear I'd get done
D A
but the premise was just kind of weak
[softly]
D A Bm
There is time to reflect and ponder
G D A
as the chips fall where they may
D A Bm
I will live for the sake of others
G A D
so they can do the same
