Addict With a Pen

[Intro] G D/F# Em C


[Verse 1]

   G                        D/F#
Hello, we haven't talked in quite 
some time
   Em                     C       
I know I haven't been the best of 
    G
sons
(G)                               
Hello, I've been traveling in the 
D/F#
desert of my mind
    Em                C
And I haven't found a drop...
    G        D/F#
Of life.
(D/F#)           Em        C
I haven't found a drop...Of you
(C)               G   D/F#
I haven't found a drop...
                  Em  C
I haven't found a drop...
    G    D/F#  Em  C
Of water
(C)     G  D/F#  Em  C
Waaaaaater            Ooohh
G   D/F#   Em   C
ahh...


[Verse 2]

G
I tried desperately to run through 
the sand
Continues after the ad
      D/F#
As I hold the water in the palm of 
my hand
 Em
'Cause it's all that I have, and 
it's all that I need
         C
And the waves of the water mean 
nothing to me
G
But I tried my best and all that I 
can
         D/F#
To hold tightly onto what's left in 
my hand
Em
But no matter how, how tightly I 
will strain
    C
The sand will slow me down, and the 
water will drain


[Verse 3]

G
I'm just begin dramatic, in fact
                D/F#
I'm only at it again

As an addict with a pen

Who's addicted to wind
       Em
As it blows me back and forth

Mindless, spineless, and pretend
    C
Of course I'll be here again

See you tomorrow
                     G
But it's the end of today

End of my ways

As a walking denial
    D/F#
My trial was filed

As a crazy suicidal headcase
         Em
But you specialize in dying
                             C
You hear me screaming, "Father!"

And I'm lying here just crying
                       G     D/F# 
So wash me with your water
   Em    C



[Verse 4] ((Chords are the same as 
before through the end))

Waaaaaaater

Hello, we haven't talked in quite 
some time
I know I haven't been the best of 
sons
Hello, I've been traveling in the 
desert of my mind
And I, I haven't found a drop...of 
life!
I haven't found a drop...of You!
I haven't found a drooooooop...
I haven't found a drooooooop...
Of water...
