Verse
E
I wrote this one for you
G#m
Cause that's all I could do
A
It's sad, but it's all true
B
So I guess it'll have to do
E
And trust the broken wing
G#m
A bird that doesn't sing
A
Useless, not unused
B
Some other cover coming through
G#m
Just wanna sleep away the hour
E C#minor
Blinded by the light
A B
This song is a mess but so am I

Verse
E
The need is so extreme
G#m
When you begin to dream
A
When you said, "nothing's new"
B
Made fucking zero sense from you
G#m
Just wanna sleep away the hour
E
Blinded by the light
A B
This song is a mess but so am I
