Riff

Verse 1:
   Riff
Well, I've never been any good at poetry
  Riff
And I stumble over words from time to time
  Riff
But tempted by a hangnail, I once flayed my middle finger
     Riff
Butchered cuticles stain the page like wine
     D5D5             FF
Count the digits, how unsuitable are mine?


Chorus:
    C majorC  FF C majorC    D5D5       FF
When it rains, well, it really fucking pours
      C majorC  FF C majorC     D5D5         FF
And we made waves, but did my screaming drown out yours?
      C majorC FF C majorC D5D5     FF
Now here we are, mixing metaphors
        C majorC         FF      C majorC
And sometimes, it might seem that we lost the battle
    D5D5       FF
But if no one wins the war, then, why keep score?

C5C5 F5F5 A5A5 F5F5

Verse 2:
C majorC
Everything is mediocre, I'm bored and nothing satisfies
FF
An existential crisis mix-tape on repeat until I die
C majorC
Left decomposing on the floor, this routine's awful for my posture
FF
Looking 'round for something more, sure that I'd lost you


Chorus:
    Riff
When it rains, well, it really fucking pours
      Riff
And we made waves, but did my screaming drown out yours?
      C majorC   D5D5     FF
Now here we are, mixing metaphors
        C majorC
And sometimes, it might seem that we lost the battle
    D5D5       FF          C majorC
But if no one wins the war, then, why keep score?
