No capo.
During the Outro, mute when the first line of each stanza starts
and come in again where it says Em, you'll hear it in the music.
Intro:
Em
Verse:
Em
All of my dreams
Tear at the seams
G
Frayed
All over the place
Em
Thought it was good
Everything where it should
G
be
Around me
Interlude:
Em F# G
Verse:
Em
All that depends
On where it ends
G
It ends
Em
Did you pretend?
Or maybe not comprehend?
G
Procrastination baby
Are you agitated lately?
Interlude:
Em F# G
Em
Outro:
Em
“Cut it up, it’s fucked” you say, it’s useless
Just a couple figures for the different uses
Am
Here it comes the sum of all excuses
Em
Easier to stay, the old refuses
Em
Spread it thin
Make it bend
Help me save him, make the ends
Am
I got things to feed, to reimburse
Em
And he’s sick, I’m alone and it’s getting worse
Em
“Cut it up, it’s fucked” you say, it’s useless
Just a couple figures for the different uses
Am
Here it comes the sum of all excuses
Em
Easier to stay, the old refuses
Em
Spread it thin
Make it bend
Help me save him, make the ends
Am
I got things to feed, to reimburse
Em
And he’s sick, I’m alone and it’s getting worse
[No chord]
“Today, Today” you say, it’s useless
Just a couple figures for the different uses
Here it comes the sum of all excuses
Where did you think I got these bruises?
