Splendid Isolation
guitar chords lyrics
INTRO: D Db B Db
D E B Db
VERSE:
D A G
He's thinking of the hungry rats
Inside his stomach and he knows that
Nothing ever changes anyway
He can see himself there
He knows that look, it's called despair
His father taught him to wear it well
So he put his ear to the door of his youth
And he heard a groundswell of remorse now
CHORUS:
Bm D
There's no splendid isolation
E G
For the abandoned generation
F#m D B G
It gets hard
F#m F#m D B G
to maintain
F#m F#m D B
When the brightest of shells
G F#m
Weather and fade anyway
F#m D B G F#m
Do what you can before it's too late
G

I spent a lifetime searching with tired eyes

I had the best intentions but they went away*
