Intro: play intro/verse riff x2 with D chord 


Verse 1 chords: use Intro/riff verse thru-out with D chord 

I went looking for a song for you 
Something soft and patient to reflect it's muse 
I took a walk with all my brightest thoughts 
But the weather soon turned and they all ran off 
Took to the ocean, in a boat this time 
Only an idiot would swim through the shit I write 
How can I talk of light and warmth? 
I've got a voice like a gutter in a toxic storm 


 
        Bm                 A 
All the dark words pouring from my throat 
              G                     D 
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we've grown 
             Bm                 A 
There goes a love song drifting out to sea 
          G                                      
I'd sing along if I could hear over the oil slick 


Verse 2: use verse 1 structure
 
So it came to pass and I came home 
With four worn out limbs and not one love song 
How predictable, this is all you got 
Yet another selfish signpost to my ruin of faults 


Chorus 2: use chorus 1 chords

All the dark words pouring from my throat 
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we've grown 
There goes a love song drifting out to sea 
I'd sing along if I could hear 
Over the dark words pissing from my throat 
Sounds like an oil slick coating the wings we've grown 
There goes a love song drifting out of my reach 
         G                                    Bm  
I?d sing along if I could see past the oil slick 


Bridge: 
Bm  A        G                 Bm   A          G 
     The oil   slick, the oil slick,   the oil   slick

Outro: use bridge chords with bridge riff
 
There is light but there's a tunnel to crawl through 
There is love but it's misery loves you 
There's still hope so I think we'll be fine 
In these disastrous times, disastrous times 
There is light but there's a tunnel to crawl through 
There is love but it's misery loves you 
We've still got hope so I think we'll be fine 
In these disastrous times, disastrous times
