Tuning: Half Step Down A5 E5 D5 F5 ( G5 ) I am a happy nihilist, no absolute truth does exist A5 E5 D5 When I decide to shake my fist, I only got myself to blame F5 Cause we?re all players and life's the game A5 I only take what I need, I am so light on my feet E5 I will not stop or concede, I am not driven by greed D5 No moral compass for me, it's all just natural feelings F5 Existence has no meaning, there's no such thing as happy A5 But late at night when I sleep, I dream of more than I see E5 There's something burning in me, a driving need to be free, D5 Why do I sit here and think about the things that I need? F5 There's nothing left to believe, oh is it all just a dream? A5 C5 A5 F5 2x A5 F5 C5 I?ve taught this to myself, piled books up on the shelf A5 G5 But it still hurts like hell to trust nobody else but me F5 C5 I?ve taught this to myself, piled books up on the shelf A5 G5 But it still hurts like hell to trust nobody else A5 E5 I used to read everything, I used to need nothing D5 F5 I put my money on me, I used to be something A5 E5 D5 F5 Now I can?t sleep, cause I?m not happy A5 C5 A5 F5 2x A5 F5 C5 I?ve taught this to myself, piled books up on the shelf A5 G5 But it still hurts like hell to trust nobody else but me F5 C5 I?ve taught this to myself, piled books up on the shelf A5 G5 F5 But it still hurts like hell to trust nobody else but me A5 C5 E5 F5 Whoa oh oh... A5 Why am I haunted by the metaphysical? C5 Is it a cosmic lie or is it literal? E5 The books I read that used to free my mind F5 Have made me more blind but the truth I?ll find it A5 E5 I was a happy nihilist D5 F5 Now I?m wondering why I exist A5 C5 A5 F5 Chorus
