verse
C Am Em G
it all began without warning, on a strange winter's morning.
C Am Em G
the sky turned red, the vibrations went dead.
C Am Em G
with these terrible songs on a rainy day, the pressure just started to fall.
C Am Em G
your scene doesnt do anything for me, it doesnt do anything at all.
(continue rhythm)
is the music gone? is it gone for good?
its only six metal strings, on a piece of wood.
and all these things goin on in my head, make it kinda hard to deal.
like seaweed swayin in the ocean blue, for me, its gotta be real.

(chorus)
C Am
i dont care anymore, people tell me i should
C Am
they're all lookin for hits, id rather lay on the hood...
C Am Em G
of an old car, with my girlfriend
C Am Em G
and my real friends, until the end
(Verse)
i'll take you on a trip, inside my soul.
there you'll see, the part that somebody stole.
now can you see this picture that im painting for you? its a view that your not used to.
but u refuse to? dont you? you're thinking too hard.
you cant, think too hard.
