"Writing Fiction" by Rocky Votolato
Verse 1
Am F
Flickering light is just light
C G
inside of my mind / never could decide
Am F
so tied up with what might've been
C G
Every decision / changes direction
Chorus
Am F C
When I put my pen down on the table
Am F G
Chapters still showed up all on their own
Am F C F
So if my fate is something that can't be escaped
G Am
Then help me wake up
F G C F
and remember this is all fiction
Am F G
Stories all
Verse 2
Am F
There's a real world we can't see
C
Hiding behind
G
your dreamin' eyes
Am F
But the place so entertaining
C
trapped on some six state
G
the track's already laid
Chorus
Am F C
Cause when I put my pen down on the table
Am F G
chapters still showed up all on their own
Am F C F
so if my fate is something that can't be erased
G Am
then help me wake up
F G C F
and remember this is all fiction
Am F G
stories on
Bridge
Dm Am
Floating over a sea of failures
F
characters I skinned
G
please how could this happen
Dm Am
if you could let me in on the plan
F G
swear I won't try to change it again
Chorus
Am F C
then I'll put my pen down on the table
Am F G
watch the chapters show up on their own
Am F C F
cause if my fate is something that can't be escaped
G Am
then help me wake up
F G C F
and remember this is all fiction
Am F G C F Am F G C
story's al- -most up...
