G 
I think i've read this book before,
B7                             Em
hard bound shiny cover, pretty colors
                     F                       
but an ending that's sure to dissapoint. 
 C                              F        G
It's not what you'd expect when you open the box.

G                                      
And all the things you wish you'd find, 
 B7                     Em                         
fleeting and tautning, colors drab and ordinary
       F                      C                      Cm
to the brilliant white of not knowing what's inside______
    Em        B7           G            A7                            
But how can I bear to behold that dream now 
        C                         
that my eyes have adjusted to the
                        Cm
concrete walla of this box that i've opened?
G                        B7            Em              
And I know i'm more than just a little fucked up
 F         C       Cm                   Dm      G
but i'm trying to make my way back home__________
