Entropy

   A           D                 A
This cigarette is doing nothing for me
A                  D            E
I still feel the tension in my veins
    Bm                             D
And all my borrowed habits haven’t left me less erratic
    Bm                 E            A
The lines keep growing deeper on my face

[Verse 2]

A               D            A
All that I had lost suddenly hit me
A                     D              E
Like a brick wall, in Memphis, Tennessee
  Bm                                  D
A stranger lent their kindness in the form of an air mattress
    Bm              E            A
And love and sorrow led me to my sleep

[Chorus]
D               A          E                            A
Does everything fall apart like the rain tears from the clouds?
D                  A          F#m      E
And will it all go back again when the sun
         D              A        D
When the sun comes back out?

[Verse 3]
A                D             A
All my friends migrated to the west coast
A                        D                   E
Like a goldrush, like an earthquake mountain-range
       Bm                               D
But as soon as I arrived, they were the angels at my side
  Bm                E             A
I almost forgot how much here had changed

[Chorus]
D               A          E                         A
Does everything fall apart like the winter tears the leaves?
D                      A          F#m      E
And will they all grow back again when the world
         D             A
When the world finally sleeps?

[Interlude]
D    A    E    A
D F#m E A

[Bridge]
A    D               A                D           E
I no longer think of my mistakes as a shovel by a grave
       Bm                               D
‘Cause each one whittled down a part of me I wasn’t proud of
  Bm            E           A
I think I can afford myself some grace
A               D              A
The future is a void we cannot look into
A                      D                  E
But the emptied cup is free to get filled up
    Bm                                  D
The same spirit still dwells within the thin walls of my shell
      Bm               E               A       D
I am amazed at all the ways to fall in love

[Chorus]
     D          A          E                          A
Does everything fall apart like the shore torn by the sea?
 D                      A          F#m
'Cause each time I come back again
    E          D                   A     F#m
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready to leave
    E D      A
I’m ready to leave
