Chords

Tune this a half step down [INTRO]
C#m          E               A
Outline of a storyboard with no idea

C#m               E
Head first in the shallow end

   A
I apologize if I do not care
[INSTRUMENTAL] C#m E A (x4) E A G#m A [VERSE 1]
C#m             E
Busy hands keep swimming

                A          C#m             E
They don't like swallowing to the abstract motor

                 A
"Gotta make that motor hum, gotta make it run."

C#m                   E                   A
Forward seems like forever when "ever" is hand over hand over hand

C#m                 E
The busy hands keep swimming

                A
Gotta make that motor "hum"
Get it over and done [CHORUS]
E               A  
So much for the autographs

G#m          A      B
So much for apologies

E               A          G#m               A    B
So much for the promises I never intended to keep

E           A
How does it all add up?

G#m                A    B
How does the story end?

E           A
I can't let go

G#m         A  B
I can't pretend
[INSTRUMENTAL] C#m E A [VERSE 2]
C#m         E 
Very I'm so friendly

            A
Very I'm so halloween

C#m               E
So this is what I wanted

                 A
Gotta keep those channels clean and other sobering themes

C#m             E
I'm drowning by numbers

           A 
my halo is bent
it's a fat fucking lie
C#m                 E
and so the abstract motor gives in

            A
it says "At least I tried."
At least I tried. [CHORUS]
E               A  
So much for the autographs

G#m          A      B
So much for apologies

E               A          G#m               A    B
So much for the promises I never intended to keep

E           A
How does it all add up?

G#m                A    B
How does the story end?

E              A
I can't let go (I can't let go)

G#m         A   B
I can't pretend

E              A
I can't let go (I can't let go)

G#m         A   B
I can't pretend
