Tuning: G C E A
[Verse]
After Amall these Eimplements and Gtexts designed by
Dintellects we're Cvexed to find eviDdently there's
still Gso much that hides.
And Amthough the Esaints dub us diGvine in ancient
Dfading lines their Csentiment is Djust as hard to
Gpluck from the vine.
[Chorus]
FI'll try hard not to preDtend
Fallow myself no mock deDfense as I E
step into the night.
[Verse]
AmSince EI don't have the Gtime nor mind to Dfigure
out the Cnursery rhymes that Dhelped us out in
making Gsense of our lives
AmThe cruel, uneEventful state of Gapathy reDleases me
I Cvalue them but DI won't cry every Gtime one's
wiped out.
[Chorus]
FI'll try hard not to give Din
Fbatten down to fare the Dwind E
Frid my head of this preDtense
Fallow myself no mock deDfense as I E
step into the night
