Manic Street Preachers

I ^G write this alone on my ^Am7 bed,
I've poisoned ^C every room in the ^G house.
The ^G place is quiet and so a- ^Am7 lone,
Pretend theres ^C something,
Worth waiting ^G for.
^G Theres nothing nice in my ^Am7 head,
The adult ^C world took it all a ^G way.
I ^G wake up with same spit in my ^Am7 mouth,
I cannot ^Bb tell if it's real or ^G not.
Chorus 1:
^{G C} I try and,
^Cm Walk in a straight ^G line.
^{G C} An imi- ^Cm tation,
Of digni- ^G ty.
G C, Cm
From despair,
To ^G where?
G C, Cm
From despair,
To ^G where?
Interlude:
G Am7, C G (x2)
Verse 2:
Out- ^G side open mouthed ^Am7 crowds,
Pass each ^C other as if they're ^G drugged.
Down ^G pale corridors of rou- ^Am7 tine,
Where ^C life falls una- ^G toned.
^G The weak kick like ^Am7 straw,
Till the ^C world means less and ^G less.
^G Words are never e- ^Am7 nough,
Just ^Bb cheap tarnished glit ^G -ter.
Chorus 2:
^{G C} I try and,
^Cm Walk in a straight ^G line.
^{G C} An imi- ^Cm tation,
Of digni- ^G ty.
G C, Cm
From despair,
To ^G where?
G C, Cm
From despair to...
