Tune half step down as in original playing. Use barred chords.
G D
There's a life full, dangling from string
G D
It's slowly swaying over my head now
G D A
As I jot down the words that will never be solved
Bm A
And wait for my headache to numb
And the wind sounds as if the world's sighing
And the moon's just a torn fingernail
As the TV flickers in homes by the wall
And I wait for my eyesight to fade
G D Bm A
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
G D Bm A
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
Not pride, I choke on ambition
And the old folks circle their graves
And the young ones are busy destroying their heirs
And the heirs are still just wasting away
I sit and watch this screen for a message
Some kind of sign that says we're ok
But the screen stays blank till I turn the thing on
And I wait for my conscience to break
Instrumental
G D Bm A ( the rest )
So...
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
I hope you are learning to listen
And I hope you are learning to stay
And I hope you find what you are missing
And I hope they're making your way
I'm a headcase if I don't keep moving
And my head hurts if I don't sit still
It's an itch that I never stop scratching
It's a hole that I'll never quite fill
So...
Outro: G D Bm A
