I   want to cross stitch shut my eyes
7        6 -6 6       -6         -5 5 -5
  Wage a war on the world outside
7           -5               5 -5 5        6 -6 6
  Brace the barricade in my mind,
6        -6 6 -6     5 
  But that's alright

I   stretch the truths 'til they lose shape
7       6 -6 6                   -6          -5 5 -5
  As support beams bend and break
7         6 -6 6              5     4    4  -4
  Watch reality's slow cascade,
6        -6 6 -6     5 
  But that's alright
 
 
And I've been thinking…

Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance?
6         -7       7    -7      7         8 -8 8 -8 7

-5        7         -7          -6 6 -6    -6 6 -5      5 
Why look twice at a beautiful existence?
-5     -7      7      6
  Ooh whoa oh oh

-5 6        7 -7 7                    -5 5 -5
I   watch the sun dry out the grass
7       6 -6 6                   -6          -5 5 -5
  Hear the silence shatter glass
7           -5               5 -5 5        6 -6 6
  Feel perfection swerve and crash,
6        -6 6 -6     5 
  But that's alright
 
5  6 -6 6 5
   Yeah, but that's alright
