"Writing Fiction" by Rocky Votolato

Verse 1
Am                      F
Flickering light is just light
C                       G
inside of my mind / never could decide
Am                              F
so tied up with what might've been
        C               G
Every decision / changes direction

Chorus
Am              F               C
When I put my pen down on the table
Am              F                       G
Chapters still showed up all on their own
Am              F                       C       F
So if my fate is something that can't be escaped
        G       Am
Then help me wake up
        F               G       C       F
and remember this is all fiction
        Am      F       G
Stories all

Verse 2
Am                              F
There's a real world we can't see
        C
Hiding behind
        G
your dreamin' eyes
Am                      F
But the place so entertaining
                        C
trapped on some six state
                G
 the track's already laid

Chorus
        Am              F               C
Cause when I put my pen down on the table
        Am              F       G
chapters still showed up all on their own
        Am      F                       C       F
so if my fate is something that can't be erased
                G       Am
then help me wake up
        F               G       C               F
and remember this is all fiction
        Am      F       G
stories on

Bridge
Dm              Am
Floating over a sea of failures
F
characters I skinned
        G
please how could this happen
        Dm                      Am
if you could let me in on the plan
F                               G
swear I won't try to change it again

Chorus
Am              F               C
then I'll put my pen down on the table
Am                      F               G
watch the chapters show up on their own
        Am              F               C       F
cause if my fate is something that can't be escaped
        G               Am
then help me wake up
        F               G       C       F
and remember this is all fiction
        Am      F       G       C       F       Am              F       G       C
story's al-             -most   up...
