Intro:
Dmaj7; A*; E*; E; E*; E (2x)
Verse 1: (chords clear)
Dmaj7 A* E* E E* E (repeat 6x)
I'm going from strange to stranger, every year
I'm going from strange to stranger, every year
I take it back, you're panicking, I take it back
I just don't know, I really thought I wanted to go
But when you're close, you look through me just like a ghost
I like sleeping, I'm only safe when I'm dreaming
I need a new heart, this one's hollow, always scheming
You wait for the summer
And then you wait for the winter
But there's a total lack of splendor
Chorus #1: (chords distorted)
Zen Brain, throw away your crushes
All your childhood crutches away
Super brain, never scared of nothing
violence or loving my way
Interlude: [by the way, I don't know if this expression is right.
I'm German, you know... ;-)]
Play the same chords as during the verse, but distorted, 2x.
Verse 2: (clear)
Dmaj7 A* E* E (repeat, guess, 3x)
I'm going from strange to stranger, every year
I'm going from strange to stranger, every year
I take it back, you're panicking, I take it back
I just don't know, I really thought I wanted to go
Chorus #2: (distortion)
Zen brain...
.
.
.
All your childhood crutches away, today
Repeat chorus #2
END
P. S. : I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
