      F
As appealing as it seems, appearances have led me to believe
The silence is at best a ringing bleed
        Am
From my outer to the source, renovating my mind to the core
I’m safe and sound and ready for the war
        F
To be bled

                          Am
You wish oh nothing when dead

        F
Like a bullet to the soul, I deem it ready, damn it, send it
Rolling down the hole put a twenty on the runner
         Am
And her hubby down the road, wait to meet her in the brains
Spaghetti on the freeway freeze a Sunday on the Rains
  F
Slightly thought to be unacclaimed and lightly touched
From the heavens only through the gates of hell is where I likely fuck
 Am
Sell it to me, gold bars flowing through my day
Remind me when have crows started starring in my play [Pre-Chorus] **
 F ...
Ouuuuh I could see it go out like that
Ricochet in the mirror bounce through the hat
       Am
Take another shade comparing bad to the bad
Another day sick of ever feeling so sad [Chorus]
      Fmaj7
Mind You, tell me what to do
Just to prove that I lose to be so smooth
        Am7
When I try to be telling you the whole truth
With a part of me living in the post due
   Fmaj7
So You, what a day to use
I get up and I dress for the same act
    Am7
My veins like it when I keep a sane track
‘Cause things ain’t always on the laid back
     Fmaj7 
Mind You, tell me what to do
Just to prove that I lose to be so smooth
        Am7
When I try to be telling you the whole truth
With a part of me living in the post due
    Fmaj7         Am7
Oh You
Fmaj7 Am7 [Verse 2]
                  F    
Retreating to my brain box fearing I’m incapable of
Living in the same plot, again and again, I’m so insatiable
    Am 
I crave thoughts capable of grave slots available to save
What we had we thought was scraped off
              F    
Syllables and haze dazing phasing and I praise
But my memory is fading
                                       Am 
I can see we pave roads for enemies I saved
I never thought it came close, only that it came
                                                      F    
I never thought I’d stay broke, but never broke the chain
Every dollar right back to the change No one really guilty the lesson of the systematic blame
        Am 
When I crave when I do it on the straight bender
Fall into a state of disconnectedness I pray
         F    
All the same just a cycle, help me run someday
Just the same if you ask me someone’s gotta stay
            Am 
There’s a stain on my jacket since I parted ways
Who the damned, is gonna help me fly away [Pre-Chorus] **
 F ...
Ouuuuh I could see it go out like that
Ricochet in the mirror bounce through the hat
       Am
Take another shade comparing bad to the bad
Another day sick of ever feeling so sad [Chorus]
     Fmaj7
Mind You, tell me what to do
Just to prove that I lose to be so smooth
        Am7
When I try to be telling you the whole truth
With a part of me living in the post due
    Fmaj7
So You, what a day to use
I get up and I dress for the same act
    Am7
My veins like it when I keep a sane track
‘Cause things ain’t always on the laid back
     Fmaj7   
Mind You, tell me what to do
Just to prove that I lose to be so smooth
        Am7
When I try to be telling you the whole truth
With a part of me living in the post due
    Fmaj7          Am7 
Oh You

 Fmaj7           Am7 
You
