C
Straighten up my shoulders for my mother and mirrors
G
The overcompensation of a posture I'm dying to know
C
Feeling like a kid selling ten dollar chocolates
G
Reciting all my rehearsed lines to your closing door
C
Thought a change of scenery would make me feel better
G
Moved four hundred miles away, I'm still staring at the floor
C
And feeling useless as a mime in a counseling session
G
Here's a million mute expressions, here's the one where I choke on my words
A
Then in comes the church with the answers
D
Ah Ah bless me with those tired acronyms
G C
They look good on the overhead slide
G C
They're saving lives
G C
Works every time
[FILL]
C
Coughing courtesy up in a month of indifference
G
And lapping up the lie with an apologetic tongue
C
I'm polishing my eyelids with a hand on your shoulder
G
Scripted adornment always kills concern
C
Sick of coming home with the TV mumbling
G
There used to be a time when you spoke to me with words
C
I'm swearing up and down saying it's a commitment
G
And toasting new beginnings saying sorry I thought it would work
A
All my speech is riddled with annulment
D
I'm sorry, I'm just doing what I think I should
A
I'm gathering my things and I'm leaving for good in November
D
I don't know when I'll talk to you
G C
I guess when both our eyes have finally died
G C
I still want to try
G C
Still wanna try
G C
Still wanna try
End on C.
Hope it helps, the D and A parts can be done with chords or power chords, up to you. DATH owns.
