We All Cope In Different Ways

        C
I had a ground breaking idea
  F/C
But I forgot to write it down
 G
Now every thought starts to distort
(G)        C
And they chase themselves around
  C
Every concept loses meaning
     F/C
When you look at it too long
 G
Today’s amazing line becomes
(G)              C
Tomorrow’s awful song.
   C
Well Time’s longer than rope
  F/C
I once heard somebody say
  G
there’s nowhere to tie the end onto
(G)     C
So I just float away
   C
It’s only been three weeks, since I’ve seen the cheeks
 F/C
Of friends I’s goodbye kissing
  G
Now I feed the magpie mince
(G)            C
And hope he’ll stay a while to listen

        F  G
We all cope in different ways
(G)        C
So don’t be too hard on yourself
Am        F  G
A hopeless string of empty days
(G)        C
Like standing on an arctic shelf
C7       F    G
Staring deep into the void
(G)       C
Of your undiscovered mind
   F     G
Searching desperately to find
    F     Dm
Some comfort from the malaise
         C
We all cope in different ways
