    G                            Em
But anyways, before I leave I wanted to say,

                               Am                                     C
'look where you please but you will not find a better friend than yourself.'

G                                 Em
Nowadays, it's fairly apparent, I suffer from severe disenchantment.

     Am                                    C     [fill]
I've made my bed with a nice pillow and no truth.



[Tempo change]

                G             Em
But really it's ok. Call me tomorrow.

Am                                  C         D
Put it into perspective and there's no one to blame.

                 G                              Em
It's just one of those sins that comes with the moment.

Am                             C                     D
It's out of our hands and over our heads, and that's great...



                 Em                       C
But where is the comfort? And what is the sure thing?

    G                         D
Now home is a luxury, I crawl up and sink in my love.

                Em                    C
See, heaven's a let-down and god is exhausting.

   G                        D
Us pseudo-intellectuals say this is why we need our vices.

[During which kazoo plays]

doot doot.



      G                                    Em
We're doomed to be always in love with the fragile things,

                      Am                                   C              D
chronically low on my gas and batteries while I'm battling the itch to be great.

               G                        Em
So this is the comfort, and this is the heart ache.

Am                          C                    D
