Something Special

E
“Pull out your clothes
       Esus4              E
You’re made for something special.”
   A
If that’s what it takes to get you 
out of bed
Db5              E      
You think you’re meant for 
        A
California
    E
But that’s just in your head

[Instrumental]
E Esus4 E

E         Esus4            E
I saw you howling at the street 
lights
A
Pressed against the skin you want to
 shed
Db5           E              A
You tore down all the walls for 
answers
And found this shit instead

[Instrumental]
E Esus4 E

Db5        A           E
You and I remember in distinctly 
different ways
       Db5              A         
How we realized that we simply 
   E
don’t belong
       Db5              A         
Like a cast of shallow characters 
     E
performing on a stage
    Gbm                       A
Our final bow before the curtain 
comes

E                        Esus4   
Throw up your hands like 
   E
everyone’s offensive
A
Give up to God if that’s your cup of
 tea
Db5       E         A
Once everybody else around you
                    E  Esus4  E
Is bitter just like me
E             Esus4           E
Don’t let the poison that surrounds 
you
A
Stifle out the life you want to live
Db5            E             A
Please know it truly doesn’t matter
And truly never did

[Instrumental]
E  Esus4  E

[Chorus]
          Db5          A
You and I have woken up
             E
With hollow copies of our names
           Db5         A          
With your scripted and directed 
      E
set of lines
       Db5              A         
Like a cast of shallow characters 
     E
performing on a stage
Gbm                               
You know we’ll soon be fading from
       A
 their minds
        Db5         A        
You and I, we both remember in 
   E
distinctly different ways
       Db5              A         
How we realized that we simply 
   E
don’t belong
       Db5              A         
Like a cast of shallow characters 
     E
performing on a stage
    Gbm                       A
Our final bow before the curtain 
comes
    Gbm                        A
Our final bow before the curtain 
comes
                  E
Before the curtain comes…
