Intro -x2-: Dbm E A E Abm Verse Dbm E Thought cycle gusty a mind filled with hot air. A E Abm Must I care for nothing more than myself? Do I dare Dbm E admit the fraught thoughts cavorting? Resorting in inner-directed mourning A E Abm for the part of me that was selfless but left without a warning. Dbm E Well that’s what I said, but maybe it’s the fact that I detest A E Abm this obsession with myself that leaves a mess inside my head. Dbm E Oh xxxx I’m doing it again, repelling any potential friend, A E Abm revealing my innate ability to never fully comprehend Dbm E anything bigger than myself, but in the end I still pretend. A E Abm Condescending anyone polite enough to choose to misspend their time Dbm E watching me as I achieve my secret social mission. A E Abm To drain people with my boring stories and opinions. Dbm E To see the bigger picture takes intelligence and wisdom, A E Abm but I won’t see nothing more with just myself in my vision. Interlude: Dbm E A E Dbm E A E Abm -x2- Verse: Dbm E A I go outside a blitz of faces unwilling to confess to any empathy, E Abm endlessly incessantly declining any pleasantries. Dbm E A Heavily breathing, socially teething. I’m open like a vivisection. E Abm Intense tendency to dwell, seething over missed connections. Dbm E Infected by my perceptions that I’m a non-entity, A E Abm project my insecurity until intensity is weaponry. Dbm E Grieving a heavenly fiction I perceived whilst I was dreaming. A E Abm Awake! Freezing, wheezing, fundamentally I’m still believing that, Dbm E this is an elegy for concepts I conceived in deep sleep, A E Abm as I helplessly watch them fade whilst I awake, I try and keep them alive. Dbm E Incomparable with life but eventually they die A E Abm and the brain I used to cultivate reveals my lovers were a lie. | Interlude: Dbm E A E Dbm E A E Abm -x2- Verse: Dbm E When inside my mind I find a way to replicate reality. A E Abm Through lucid dreaming I decimate the limitations of actuality. Dbm E A Capacity practically eternal, mortality external, E Abm no god but I investigate the blasphemous worship of the nocturnal. Dbm E A Internally existing without morality creates profanities without the travesty E Abm Dbm and compared to the apathy of realness I reveal my own insanity. E A The majesty of fantasy protects me from tragedy. E Abm Normality's effects reject the agony of rationality. Dbm E Which thankfully penetrates with no avail to my unreality, A E Abm an elaborately designed privately owned spiral galaxy. Dbm E Financially I’m failing, naturally decaying. A E Abm Soon I’ll have no safe place to sleep if these bills still need paying, Dbm E displaying cravings with open eyes for something mind expanding A E Abm for when I drift away I see the totality of understanding. Outro: Dbm E A E
I’m so happy this song is on here now! finally I can play the song I cry myself to sleep to!
the F7 in verse 3 should be a Gb, but otherwise great chords for a fantastic song!
idk if anyone was having trouble with this, but the picking/strumming i do is the c string once and then i strum both the e and a strings twice
-2 is the easiest imo
y’all have no idea how happy i am that this song finally has a uke chord chart, this song is one of my favorite mitski songs and it sounds so pretty on the ukulele!! i love to play it, thank you for this chord chart!
I use C – E – A as the plucking pattern with the usual chords, it sounds lovely :))
I will gladly cry to this song any day
-2 but e and eb7 are replaced with em and db is replaced with dm : )
pls im crying i love mitski so much
the way i play it is pluck the g and a strings at the same time, then c, then e
