Key: GG | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

    


G                                                   F#/G
Always in the way, I think I've had enough of this
Em                                   D
Why is everyone so cold and lonely?
C                            G                          D
Here I go again, I'll try releting to the selfishly absurd
G                                                    F#/G
Take me for a ride and leave me somewhere I can live
Em                                   D
Without feeling everybody's sorrow
C                                     G                
I want to feel the numbness that surrounds most of our hearts
   D                            B7
To feel like I am normal while ripping lives apart
Em                           C
Somewhere on the way to degradation
  G                          D
I met a man who put me in my place
  B7
He said,"You will not see me
        Em                     C                 D
You'll know the truth when you hear this trumpet play"
G                                                      F#/G
Doctor can you give me something for my state of mind?
Em                                           D
If we're all on the same pill it's alright
C                                   G
'Sorry son you'll have to walk this Bridge without a crutch
       D                     B7
We're out of medication, the world is out of love"
Em                                      C
Just then I heard something from the distance
     G                             D
The trumpet player sitting on the hill
 B7                               Em
He said "I really do not have an answer now"
     C                  D
Then vanished standing still
C                         D
In the face on everyone I saw a little madness
      G           F#/G             Em      D
And decided not to be part of that scene
     C            Cm              G... (13 hits on palm mute)
The only way it seemed
Em                            C
Always on the wrong side of affection
    G                                D
We step on heads to get more than we need
B7                       Em
Never understanding the afterglow
      C                 D
The reflection of our greed
B7                       Em
Never understanding the afterglow
      C              Cm                 (G, F#/G, Em, D, C, G, D) x2 Fade out
The reflection of... reflection of our greed
