Wishful Thinking

*Note from Robyn: The best way to figure out the strumming on this is honestly just listen to it. Main strumming is just fast, verse is that ska thing where you mute the down, play the up. Em B Dm G | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | Em B Dm G | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | Em I haven't felt okay in years B I drink and smoke away the tears Dm G A living fucking wreck since age 13 Em Turn up the song so I stop feeling B Staring holes into the ceiling Dm G Begging that I'll soon drift off to sleep A G F# E5 But when I close my eyes all I see are nightmares B G I wish that I could spread my wings and fly and Dm A G I wish that this fucking skin really felt like mine B But I know that A Wishful thinking G Doesn't lead to F# Anything ever E5 Happening at all Em B Dm G | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | Em B Dm G | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | Em Duality within my head B A fine young man is lying dead Dm G And i'm the fair maiden holding the gun Em Reality is choking me B Rallied by systems that fail to see Dm G I know myself better than they ever could A G F# E5 When I look in the mirror all I see are nightmares B G I wish that I could spread my wings and fly and Dm A G I wish that this fucking skin really felt like mine B But I know that A Wishful thinking G Doesn't lead to F# Anything... E5 Dm Em So what am I supposed to do Dm A woman on the inside A G F# E5 But not from any other point of view Dm Em I've become a husk of a human being Dm Lost in shitty punk rock songs A G F# E5 So I do the only thing I can think G A I sing my songs G A G F# E5 For anyone who cares to listen G A Or sing along G A G F# E5 But there's still something missing Em B Dm G | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | Em B Dm G | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | Em No perfect shape or pretty voice B Just a mess of hellish noise Dm G But somehow that makes me feel okay Em The miniskirts and pantyhose B My true shape beneath baggy clothes Dm G Why can't I just look like a girl A G F# E5 Because when I go outside all I see are nightmares B G I wish that I could spread my wings and fly and Dm A G I wish that this fucking skin really felt like mine B But I know that A Wishful thinking G Doesn't lead to F# Anything ever E5 Happening at all B Oh why can't A Wishful thinking G Ever lead to F# Anything ever E5 Happening at all
