D5                   E5                  D5         G5
the cup is not half empty as pessimists say
D5               E5                      D5         G5
as far as he's sees nothings left in the cup
D5                   E5                 D5            G5
a whole cup full of nothing for him to induldge
D5                  E5                           D5         G5
since the voice of ambition has long since been shut up

Chorus:
D5         E5         D5                E5
a singer, a writer, he's not dreaming now of going nowhere
D5       E5            D5                  E5
he gave heed to nothing, and all that he was....

is just a tragedy

Verse 2:
D5                E5                       D5             G5
so he voyages in circles succeeds getting nowhere
D5                  E5                           D5         G5
and submits to the substance that first got him there

Chorus:
D5                E5            D5             E5
than in violent, frustration he cries out to God or just no one
D5                E5              D5                E5
is there a point to this madness and all that he was....

is just a tragedy

A5   E5    A5
he feels alone
G5
his heart in (alone)
A5   E5   A5
he feels alone
G---------
I feel....

D5            E5          D5        G5
then on that last day he breaks
D5            E5          D5              G5
and he stood tall and he yelled yeah he yelled
D5       E5        D5         G5
Why     Why       Why       again
(fade out)
