Haunted Head chords by Ezra Furman

Chords with lyrics

Intro: BB F#F# E MajorE

verse 1
  BB
I'm up at six
                E MajorE
I get a slice of bread, I cut a hole in it
              BB
I crack a little egg into a frying pan
                E MajorE
and I try to get my mind turned off
   BB
I'm naked now
                      E MajorE
Because it doesn't really matter when the shades are down

I was born this way I'll die this way
 BB                       E MajorE
I don't know how I'm ever gonna tell myself the truth

C# minorC#m
I live alone
              BB   A augmentedA
A majorA house without a heart is not a home
                   F#F#
I think I may destroy these things I own
                   BB  A augmentedA
I'm going back way back to black and red
Inside my haunted head

Instrumental: E MajorE BB A augmentedA

verse 2

     E MajorE
I get the prayer shawl on
                  A augmentedA
I wrap myself in something that is way beyond
                   E MajorE
anything my mind could get its dirty fingers on
                   A augmentedA
I'm going through the motions like a champ
       E MajorE
I take these aimless drives from two A.M. to four
       A augmentedA
I live these secret lives
                E MajorE
Identities that all die off not one survives
                 A augmentedA
By morning there's nobody at the wheel

F# minorF#m
I'm out on Lake Street now
                     E MajorE D MajorD
I'm coming to a red light but there's no one around
                  BB
The law sits on my shoulder and it weighs me down
                    E MajorE  D MajorD
It's talking in a language long since dead
Inside my haunted head

Instrumental: A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD

verse 3
      A augmentedA
I'm having too much fun
                 D MajorD
My arms around the toilet like a long-lost chum
I'm kneeling at the throne
       A augmentedA
I'm stricken deaf and dumb
                   D MajorD
I'm learning what it means to really pray
       A augmentedA
Tried to get cute with pain
I thought I could avoid it
     D MajorD
Thought I knew that game
                     A augmentedA
But just when you get the hang of it the rules all change
                      D MajorD
and you're doing time for crimes that don't exist


       B minorBm
So I sit and wait
              A augmentedA    G+G
til I can finally see the sense it makes
                    E MajorE
I know this sick world's bound to be explained
                 A augmentedA  G+G
So I'm hanging on if only by a thread
Inside my haunted head
D MajorD G+G
(Haunted, ha-ha-haunted head)
