Big black nothing
                 A
Fooling everyone

Big black nothing

Would you be my
                             A
Would you still be my friend

If I told you

It?s all just pretend

Something I can feel

Sing it louder (Big black nothing)
                            Bm
The whole world wants to hear
                   E
