My Manic and I Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]He w[E]ants[Am][E][Am]
to die in a lake in Geneva
The mountains can cover the
[G]shape of his nose
[Am]He wants to die where nobody can see him
But the beauty of his
death will [G]carry on so
[Am]I don't believe [E]him

[Verse 2]
He [Am]greets me with kisses when
good days deceive him
And sometimes we're scorned
and some[E]times I believe him
And [Am]sometimes I'm convinced,
my friends think I'm crazy
Get scared and call him but
he's [E]usually hazy

[Verse 3]
At [Am]one in the morning, day is not ended
By [E]two he is scared that
sleep is no friend
And by [Am]four he will drink
but he cannot feel it
[Bm]Sleep will not come because
sleep does not will it
And I [Am]don't believe [E]him,
morning is [Am]mocking [E]me

[Verse 4]
I?ll [Am]wander the streets, avoiding them eats
?Til the ring on my finger [E]slips to [Bm]the ground
[E]A g[Am]ift to the gutter, a gift to the city
The veins of which have [E]broken [Bm]me down
And [Am]I don't believe [E]him,
morning is [Am]mocking [E]me

[Verse 5]
Oh, the [Am]Gods that [Em]he b[Am]e lieves
[Em]neve[Am]r fail to amaze me
[Em]He be[Am]lieves in the love
of his God of [Em]all things
But I [Am]find him wrapped
up in all manner of [Em]sins
The [Am]drugs that deceive him and
the [Em]girls that believe him

[Verse 6]
[G]I can't control you, I
[D]don't know you well
[F]These are the reasons I
[E]think that you're ill
[G]I can't control you, I
[D]don't know you well
[F]These are the reasons I
[E]think that you're ill
And since [Am]last that we parted

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Last that I saw him [Am]down by a river
[Em]Si lent and hardened
[Am]Morning was mocking us,
[Em]blood hit the sky
[Am]I was just happy, my [E]manic [Em]and I
[Am]He couldn't see me, the

[Verse 8]
[Em]
sun was in his eyes
And [E]bird[C]s w[D]ere singing
[Dm]to calm us [E]down
And [C]bird[D]s were singing to
[Dm]calm us [E]down
And I'm [Am]sorry young man, I can

[Verse 9]
[Em]
not be your friend
[Am]I don't believe in a [Em]fairytale end
I [Am]don't keep my head up [Em]all of the time
[Am]I find it dull when my [Em]heart meets my mind
And [E]I hardly [G]know [D]you, I

[Verse 10]
think I can tell
[Dm]These are the reasons I
[E]think that we're ill
I hardly [G]know [D]you, I think I can tell
These [Dm]are the reasons I [E]think that I'm ill

[Verse 11]
And the [Am]Gods that [Em]he bel[Am]ieves ne[Em]ver
[Am]fail to dis[Em]appoint [Am]me[Em]
The [Am]Gods that [Em]he b[Am]elieves[Em]
never [Am]fail to dis[Em]appoint me

[Verse 12]
[Am]My n[Em]ihili[Am]st, my happy man,
my manic and [Em]I
Have [G]no [F#dim]plans to [F]move on[Esus4]
[E]But

[Verse 13]
[G]bird[D]s are singing
to [Dm]calm us [E]down
And birds are [D]singing to calm us [E]down

[Outro 1]
