🎶 Ramblings of a Lunatic

Capo 2
intro:
[A#] [Am7] [Fmaj7] [Fmaj7]


verse 1:
I'm setting [A#]pen to paper a[Am7]gain
Lost my sense of [Fmaj7]home from the words that I've [Fmaj7]said
But the [A#]thoughts have begun to fer[Am7]ment in my head
And content mani[Fmaj7]fest don't feel [Fmaj7]good enough for them

So I [A#]try and transcend my [Am7]ego
But don't we know, [Fmaj7]it will never [Fmaj7]work
Maybe I'll [A#]just descend to [Am7]dirt
So it be[Fmaj7]coming food for [Fmaj7]worms

chorus:
Would [Am7]anyone listen to this
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic
My [Dm7]mind does play an awful trick
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic

Would [Am7]anyone listen to this
I'm [Fmaj7]running from my emptiness
My [Dm7]brain is tired, my stomach's sick
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic

verse 2
Why [A#]has constructing sentences be[Am7]come like pulling teeth
Wiping [Fmaj7]dental records clean, is the [Fmaj7]carcass even me
Is [A#]this catharsis, thera[Am7]peutic plunge to darkness
Or e[Fmaj7]laborating over my [Fmaj7]mediocrity

Maybe [A#]this is a result of me [Am7]finally accepting
That I'll [Fmaj7]be alone forever, that [Fmaj7]I deserve forgetting
It's a [A#]pointless endeavour, and [Am7]maybe it's upsetting
But I've never [Fmaj7]felt more comfortable in the [Fmaj7]concept of things ending

chorus:
Would [Am7]anyone listen to this
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic
My [Dm7]mind does play an awful trick
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic

Would [Am7]anyone listen to this
I'm [Fmaj7]running from my emptiness
My [Dm7]brain is tired, my stomach's sick
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a luna[Am7]tic [Fmaj7] [Dm7] [Fmaj7]
[Am7] [Fmaj7] [Dm7] [Fmaj7] [Fmaj7]

verse 3:
Maybe [Am7]this writer's block that [Fmaj7]I've been perceiving
Is to [Dm7]stop me diving deeply into [Fmaj7]my internal being
[A#]Falling into darkness be[Am7]low my surface tension
E[Fmaj7]motional suppression, my [Dm7]coping mechanism

'Cause [A#]all my friends are dying, some [Am7]faster than the others
Lungs [Fmaj7]filling up with fluid, place [Fmaj7]face under the covers
'Cause [A#]all my friends are dying, some [Am7]faster than the others
I'm [Fmaj7]trying to distract myself from the [Fmaj7]fears that I've discovered

final chorus: (x2)
Would [Am7]anyone listen to this
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic
My [Dm7]mind does play an awful trick
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic

Would [Am7]anyone listen to this
I'm [Fmaj7]running from my emptiness
My [Dm7]brain is tired, my stomach's sick
The [Fmaj7]ramblings of a lunatic⠀
