Em D Em D Em
Finished with my woman cos she couldn't help me with my mind

Em D Em D Em
People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time


Em |C D |Em |Em | x2

Em D Em D Em
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy

Em D Em D Em
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find somthing to pacify

Em D
Can you help me Are you for my brain

Em D
Oh Yeah


Em |Em |D | Em | x2

Em D Em D Em
I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find

Em D Em D Em
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry

Em D Em D Em
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words now telling you now of my state

Em D Em D Em

tablature explanation:

b--> bend (to the equivalent of the next number)
r--> release bend
h--> hammer-on
p--> pull-off
=--> hold bend
/--> slide up
\--> slide down

notes: * All the notes are held until the next note is played,
except for the last note, which is staccato.
* The numbers on top of the tab indicate the beat, so you know
approximately the length of each note. However, it's probably
easier to just listen to the song.
