Misadventures of Doomscroller (2022), track 4 ============================================= [INTRO] N.C. Gm Ab [VERSE I]
         Gm
Standing right outside the echo
When we were still just cutting teeth Turning madness into waveforms Searching cords for what's beneath
          Cm7         Cm6
All these existential freshmen

Eb         Ab             Gm
 Trying to keep our noses clean

BbM7               EbM7
Scared to show our faith in

Dm7  AbM7                Gm
 The ghost in the machine
Gm Ab Gm Ab [VERSE II]
         Gm
Standing right outside the echo
We were working for the door Assuming our dreams were brighter Than the bands that played before
            Cm7             Cm6
But you can see it in their hunger

EbM7     AbM7             Gm
 You can hear it in their screams

        BbM7                EbM7
Back to just trying to make contacts

Dm7       AbM7                Gm
 With the ghost in the machine
Gm Ab Gm Ab [VERSE III]
       Gm
To the build ups and the breakdowns
To the boom and to the crash To the stockpiles of excuses Or how to trade it in for cash
        Cm7                 Cm6
All the boys in these motel rooms

EbM7      AbM7           Gm
The lobby call at six fifteen

            BbM7         EbM7
One million miles upon a highway

Dm7     AbM7           Gm
..For a ghost in the machine

N.C.
[VERSE IV] N.C. All the thousand hesitations L built up in my early years On the reconsiderations Though the music of the spheres
           Cm7          Cm6
Which I cannot deny any longer

EbM7        AbM7         Gm
 When every night I reconvene

           BbM7              EbM7
With these vibrations giving proof of

Dm7  AbM7           Gm
 The ghost in the machine

    AbM7           Gm
The ghost in the machine

    AbM7           Gm
The ghost in the machine

    AbM7           Gm    Ab
The ghost in the machine
