Tuning: G C E A (G C E A) Intro: G Em C Em x2 Verse 1: G Em I’m setting pen to paper again, C Lost my sense of home, Em From the words that I’ve said, G Em But the thoughts have begun to ferment in my head, C And content manifests, Em Don’t feel good enough for them, G Em so I try and transcend my ego,
But don’t we know? C Am7 It will never work, G Em Maybe I’ll just descend to dirt, C Am7 Flirt with becoming food for worms. Chorus: One Strum For This Chorus G Would anyone listen to this? Em The ramblings of a lunatic, C My mind is playing an awful trick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic, G Would anyone listen to this? Em I’m running from my emptiness, C My brain is tired, my stomachs sick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic. Verse 2: G Em Why has constructing sentences become like pulling teeth? C wiping dental records clean, Em Is this carcass even me? G Em Is this catharsis therapeutic plunge to darkness? C Em Or elaborating, upon my mediocrity, G Em Maybe this is the result of me finally accepting, C That I’ll be alone forever, Em That I deserve forgetting. G It’s a pointless endeavour, and maybe It’s Em upsetting, C But I’ve never felt more comfortable with Em the concept of things ending. Chorus: G Would anyone listen to this? Em The ramblings of a lunatic, C My mind does play an awful trick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic, G Would anyone listen to this? Em I’m running from my emptiness, C My brain is tired, my stomachs sick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic. Interlude: G Em C Em x2 Bridge: G Em Maybe this writers block that I’ve been C perceiving is to stop me diving deeply Em into my internal being, G Em Falling into darkness below my surface tension, C Emotional suppression, Em My coping mechanism. G Cause all my friends are dying, Em Some faster than the others, C Lungs filling up with fluid, Em Face placed under the covers. G Cause all my friends are dying, Em Some faster than the others, C Em I’m trying To distract myself from the fears that I’ve discovered. Chorus: G Would anyone listen to this? Em The ramblings of a lunatic, C My mind is playing an awful trick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic, G Would anyone listen to this? Em I’m running from my emptiness, C My brain is tired, my stomachs sick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic G Would anyone listen to this? Em The ramblings of a lunatic, C My mind is playing an awful trick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic, G Would anyone listen to this? Em I’m running from my emptiness, C My brain is tired, my stomachs sick, Em The ramblings of a lunatic.
