C Em Am
My friends are working on avoiding me
So when we meet I keep my mouth real busy Talk out my nervous energy It never works I throw darts at the wall and get sloppy
C/G Am G
But it's alright now
If I seem surprised, it's just a joke I'm trying out But if it floats, I guess I'll keep it around
C Em Am
A woman gestures lazily
Through the hoods in my eyes I see her shaking her jewelry It casts a perfect light on me I feel moved and that's strange But lately, I've been acting really strangely
C/G Am G
So it's alright now
I'm keeping distracted to blunt my reactions And anyhow You think less when there's less for you to think about
C Em Am
(bass run on A string, 0--2--3)
Dm Em (high) Am (same bass run) A paralyzed puppet sits stiff in the window
F G C C7
Grinding his teeth and playing piano

F       G                         C   Em   Am
All his songs bleed together in a flatline blur
A broken litany of worthless words Creating space while your drinks get served
                       G
I know it gets on your nerves

                                  C     Em  Am
Just try to pretend like it's not work
A little denial never hurts www.myspace.com/jakeskubisz
