VERSE 1:

G               C          G                        C
One more day down, Everybody has those days

G                             C                 G            C
Where one soft sweet song is just enough to clear my head

E :3-3-3-1-1-1-1-2-3

G                 C
Fall on real life, (fall on real life)

G                        C
Is anybody left here sane?

Em                  D5                   C9
And we?ll slide on over, the accept  fate

                              G
Man it?s bound to be a powerful thing


CHORUS:

G                        C
And if it?s just that you?re weak, can we talk about it?

G                  C                        
It?s gettin so damn creepy just nursing this 

D5
Ghost of a chance

                              C9
The fiction, the romance, and the Technicolor dreams

                  G  C  G  C
Black and white people


VERSE 2:

G                  C
One boy headstrong

G                              C
He thinks everything here is just plain

G                  C                              G      C
He?s pushed down so hard you can hear him start to sink

G               C                        G
And it?s one last round of this petty conversation


                        C                        Em
You hold on boy, cuz you won?t go down like this

                  D5                        C9
You just roll on over and lay down till it?s more that you can take

G                  C      G                  C

G                  C                        D5
One soft sweet song is just enough to clear my....
