Addict With A Pen

G D7/F# Em C G D7/F# Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time Em C G I know I haven't been the best of sons G D7/F# Hello, I've been traveling in the desert of my mind Em C And I haven't found a drop... G D7/F# Of life. D7/F# Em C I haven't found a drop...Of you C G D7/F# I haven't found a drop... Em C I haven't found a drop... G D7/F# Em C Of water C G D7/F# Em C Waaaaaater Ooohh G D7/F# Em C ahh... G I tried desperately to run through the sand D7/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 D7/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 G I'm just begin dramatic, in fact D7/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 D7/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 D7/F# Em C So wash me with your water
