( G 

G
I'm taking syllables that I want to lose meaning
G
And painting them in white up on the ceiling
C9
To swim around the air while I am sleeping
(riff 1)       C9
And in the morning they'll
G
Be a little bit blurrier.

G
And one morning I'll be squinting from my bed
G
To make out the letters overhead
C9
But they've blurred into a cloud up there instead
(riff 1)      C9     G
And I'm inviting you to be white paint
(riff 1)      C9      G      D
I'm inviting you to be white paint.

(refr?o)
D      C9
Where do you send things to
C9      G
When your heart ain't got no room?
G      D
'Cos I'm set on banishing
D      C9
My undying love
C9      G
Unwavering favor of
C9      D      G      G
All the wrong things.

( G )

G
Those syllables will sound against my skull
G
To echo and overlap until they're dull
C9
To blend in with the hum inside the walls
(riff 1)      C9      G
And I'm inviting you to be white noise
(riff 1)      C9      G
I'm inviting you to be white noise.

(refr?o)
Where do you send things to
When your heart ain't got no room?
'Cos I'm set on banishing
My undying love
Unwavering favor of
All the wrong things.

(refr?o)

( D )

G
And I'd like to know how difficult is it
G
To recreate established laws of physics
C9
To dwell inside the confines of a minute
(riff 1)      C9      G
Where everything just drones, null and void
(riff 1)      C9      G
And in that instant you are just white noise.
