Version 1
*** Hint: If you like it easier: Put capo on 2nd and transpose by -2 ***
[Verse 1]
B G#m
My phantom brother came to me
E
His backlit face was hard to see
B E B E
I couldn’t move, I couldn’t scream
B G#m
You can’t unhear Beethoven’s 5th
E
This human heart’s an aggregate
B
Competing feelings so disparate
F#
And strange
[Chorus]
E F#
Life’s a solitary song
E F#
No one to clap or sing along
E/G# F#
It sounds so sweet and then it’s gone
B E B E
So suddenly
[Verse 2]
B G#m
My aging mother steeled herself
E
Against the gravity she felt
B E B E
Braced for another fainting spell
B G#m
Fell in her mind through a trap door
E
We picked her up off of the floor
B
When she came to her throat was sore
F#
And she spoke
[Chorus]
E F#
Life’s a game of solitaire
E F#
Amusement rides at county fairs
E/G# F#
The Tilt-A-Whirl of our despair
B
Ends suddenly... Where’d it go?
[Instrumental]
G#m B E C#m
A G#m A F#
[Chorus]
E F#
Life’s a lonely love affair
E F#
Kaleidoscope beyond compare
E/G# F#
It vanishes into thin air
B
So suddenly
