D-DU-UDU
Your gun went off
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you
My mouth runs on too
Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue
Life it rents us
And yeah I hope it put plenty on you
Well I hope mine did too
As life gets longer, awful feels softer
Well it feels pretty soft to me
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
then I feel pretty blissfully
Your gun went off
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you
My mouth runs on too
Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue
We are fiiiiiiiiiiiiiixed
Right where we stand
Life it rents us
And yeah I hope it put plenty on you
Well I hope mine did too
We are fiiiiiiiiiiiiiixed
Right where we are
As life gets longer, awful feels softer
Well it feels pretty soft to me
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
then I feel pretty blissfully
Pre-Solo: (Isaac Screaming into some police speaker-style thing)
For every invention made how much time did we save?
We're not much farther than we were in the cave
(Solo)
**No chords are that apparent but I pulled this together, sounds 10% like the real
song but its something.**
Strum each of these chords once or twice.
As life gets longer, awful feels softer, and it
feels pretty soft to me
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
Well I feel pretty blissfully
If life's not beautiful without the pain,
Well I'd just rather never ever even see... beauty again
Well as life gets longer, awful feels softer
And it... feels pretty soft to me, oh hooo
Pre Chorus: (Again Isaac screaming into the police speaker thing)
For every good deed done there is a crime committed
We are fixed
For every step ahead we could have just been seated
We are fixed
As life gets longer, awful feels softer
Well it feels pretty soft to me
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
then I feel pretty blissfully
We are fixed
We are fixed
We are fixed
Right where we... stand
