        C#m7
Woe-is-me

                     Bmaj7         F#m7
But I guess that it comes with the territory

Dmaj7                                          C#m7
   An ominous landscape of never ending calamity

In a book and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees

                  Bmaj7         F#m7
I said, "I can relate," because lately I've been

Dmaj7                                               C#m7
Thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from

G#mb6/D# E The burdens of the planet earth G#mb6/D# D#m7 Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D
