C          D 
This is an open letter 
G                         
To explain myself to the finer folk 
C                        D 
To uphold my kind to the higher minds 
C   G   C G     C  G  C G 
One refrain: outside brain 
 

 
G           A        C       G 
Shook by the stares, I left too soon 
C             D 
Lost the bet, cant read the room 
G           A        C       G  C      D 
The edges of the curtains glare in the stagnant air 
 

 
       C               D 
From a mineshaft to a crawlspace 
         G                 
Across a bed of nails and broken glass 
       C               D 
From a jump scare to a catwalk 
         G                 
On a tightrope over burning ash 
C   G       C G     C  G  C G 
Against the grain: outside brain 
 

Interlude 
 G A C 


 
G           A        C       G 
I called up the trophy store 
C                       D 
Asked what things were going for 
G      A      C    G 
Said I didnt qualify 
     C                   D 
If I left my name theyd try 
 

 
   C               D 
To write an open letter 
     G                    
To explain myself to the finer folks 
     C                   D 
To uphold my kind to the higher minds 
C   G   C G      C  G  C G 
What remains: outside brain 
 

 
     G    A    C         G 
The panic of a blown-out fuse 
C                  D 
I cant take much more bad news 
G        A       C     G 
Sitting in this busted chair 
C                  D 
Headstrong and unprepared 
 

 
       C               D 
From a mineshaft to a crawlspace 
         G                 
Across a bed of nails and broken glass 
       C               D 
From a jump scare to a catwalk 
         G                 
On a tightrope over burning ash 
C   G   C G     C  G  C  G 
Against the grain: outside brain
