We All Cope In Different Ways Cifras

[Verse]
        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 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
 
 
[Chorus]
                           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    C7
Like standing on an arctic shelf
                        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
 
 
[Verse 2]
        C
We now watch the kind of films
             F/C
Our former selves would not believe
     G
Old DVDs of Keanu Reeves
         C
As we sneeze into our sleeves
 
         C
I make calls to my great auntie
          F/C
And file tax 10 quarters old
      G
But each receipt reminds me
        C
Of when we were free and bold
 
       C
I got lost in Jane Austen
          F/C
Her posthumous work Persuasion
           G
She's the early 1800s
        C
Poster girl for isolation
 
          C
All her characters claim love
             F/C
If from some wealthy socialite
     G
But Jane retained her single life
      C
And stayed at home to write
 
 
[Chorus]
                           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    C7
Like standing on an arctic shelf
                        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
 
 
[Verse 3]
      C
They say the world's been granted
       F/C
This chance for collective zen
        G
But I keep refreshing to find more death and
      C
My heart it breaks again
 
     C
But statistics are just fish sticks
     F/C
Without their human faces
           G
How can I empathize with all the lives
      C
That each number embraces
 
       C
The behaviors of my own neighbors
         F/C
Are all making me suspicious
       G
they prance around all over town
      C
Like mobile Petrie dishes
 
           C
So I lock all the doors and windows
               F/C
And pull the blinds to make a blinder
         G
I've become my own worst nightmare
      C
Anti-social over-thinker
 
 
[Chorus]
                           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    C7
Like standing on an arctic shelf
                        F    G
Staring deep into the void
(G)                    C
Of your undiscovered mind
            F              G
If you're lucky you might find
          F               Dm
Some comfort from the malaise
                           C
We all cope in different ways
