Tune half step down as in original playing.  Use barred chords.



      G                             D 
There's a life full, dangling from string
           G                     D
 It's slowly swaying over my head now
      G                           D       A
 As I jot down the words that will never be solved
     Bm                     A
 And wait for my headache to numb
 
 And the wind sounds as if the world's sighing
 And the moon's just a torn fingernail
 As the TV flickers in homes by the wall
 And I wait for my eyesight to fade
 
      G          D             Bm               A
 So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
      G         D          Bm               A
 So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
 
 Not pride, I choke on ambition
 And the old folks circle their graves
 And the young ones are busy destroying their heirs
 And the heirs are still just wasting away
 
 I sit and watch this screen for a message
 Some kind of sign that says we're ok
 But the screen stays blank till I turn the thing on
 And I wait for my conscience to break

Instrumental


G   D   Bm  A ( the rest )

 So...
 So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
 So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
 
 I hope you are learning to listen
 And I hope you are learning to stay
 And I hope you find what you are missing
 And I hope they're making your way
 
 I'm a headcase if I don't keep moving
 And my head hurts if I don't sit still
 It's an itch that I never stop scratching
 It's a hole that I'll never quite fill
 
 So...

Outro: G   D   Bm  A
