Chords

[Verse 1]

F#m
Today I am sad

But not that which you see on TV

E
No heart wrenching scenes or diamond tears to see

D
I’m just sad

[Verse 2]

F#m
Today I am sad

Burled deep in my own fortress

E
Curled up, hurled up, limp on the mattress

D
That kind of sad

[Verse 3]

F#m
Everyday I am sad

Weak, and slow to say the least I’m

E
Run down, gutted, hollowed out, not caring to please

D
Fucking sad

[middle 8]

F#m
My mouth points south, I’m out for the count

Gb
Resigned, denied, porcelain face has lied and lied

F#m
Not lifting, shifting, moving, drifting

Gb
Masquerade mask crumbling in a bathroom.

[Verse 3]

F#m                                
The bride. The groom. The carriage tipped over on the road, no honeymoon.

E
That kind of sad injects my veins. Bloodstream rhythm pulses shame

D
Spectral nurse. She loves to hurt. Ups the dose when the clock gets close

[Verse 4]

F#m
Critical condition overlooked in the magazines

E
No-one sends flowers to the diced up spliced up beauty queen

D
Left to hyperventilate in cling film wrapped dreams

D
Zipped up, pinned up, suffocating in skinny jeans.

[Verse 5]

F#m
Today I am sad

Future on the brink. Expired milk poured down the sink

E
Acrid acid burns and boils down the pipework

D
Burns and churns just as bad as a knife hurts.

F#m
Life is paused until I can reconnect to the server. 

E
This white bread life doled out to those who don’t deserve her

D
Earner. Churner. Put your dreams on the back burner.

[Outro]

F#m
Left out to steep but really it’s a fly trap

Gb
Those puny fragile bugs all know where my mind’s at.

D
I am sad.
