Cockroach Cacophony

[Intro]
Em
 
[Verse 1]
Em       D                  CM7
A buzzer sounds to wake you up
             Bm7                        Em
And steals a dream that you thought was real
D                    CM7
You close your eyes again
          Bm7               Em               D
Feel your face with your hand, again you dream
            CM7
But not the same
            Bm7           Em
A different name, another game
D             CM7       Bm7      Em    D  CM7  Bm7
You'd like to stay, you know you can't
 
[Verse 2]
Em       D                  CM7
You leave your bed to wet your face
             Bm7            Em
First water hot then water cold
D                    CM7
You see yourself as half awake
          Bm7            Em
You look so young you feel so old
D                              CM7
And as the dark turns slow to gray
            Bm7           Em
It's neither night it's neither day
D             CM7       Bm7      Em   D
You'd like to stay, you know you can't
 
[Chorus]
CM7 Bm7     Em  D  CM7     Bm7  Em  D   CM7  Bm7
You look away now,      look away now
    Em        D                         CM7             Bm7
You look away from all the thoughts and things you once dreamed you'd like to do
Em                   D              CM7                Bm7
But all that you can think about is what's confronting you
Em                   D              CM7                Bm7  Em  D  CM7  Bm7
Is all that you can think about is what's confronting you?
 
[Verse 3]
Em            D                  CM7
You turn the light to find some clothes
             Bm7            Em
You put them on go to the stove
               D             CM7
You place some water on the flame
          Bm7            Em
The faucet drips into the drain
            D              CM7
You clank a spoon inside a cup
            Bm7           Em
A cigarette you know you're up
  D          CM7  Bm7       Em      D  CM7  Bm7
You ask for what you cannot say
 
[Verse 4]
Em               D
Life oh bleeding life
             CM7            Bm7
Which labors on with every breath
              Em               D
And takes you reeling, blindly wheeling
     CM7              Bm7
Ever closer to your death
Em           D              CM7
You hear the judge and jury curse
                Bm7           Em
You watch them sentence you to thirst
           D                 CM7
And as you move from womb to breast
      Bm7                    Em
From nothingness to nothingness
 
[Bridge]
Em      D     CM7    Bm7
Still I will be merry
 
[Chorus]
        CM7      Bm7        Em      D  CM7  Bm7
You look away now,      look away now
    Em        D                                       CM7                    Bm7
You look away from all the thoughts and things you once dreamed you'd like to do
Em                   D              CM7                Bm7
But all that you can think about is what's confronting you
Em                   D              CM7                Bm7  Em  D  CM7  Bm7
Is all that you can think about is what's confronting you?
 
[Bridge]
Em      D     CM7    Bm7  4X
Still I will be merry
 
[Verse 4]
Em         D                 CM7
Go back to bed and spend the day
Bm7        Em       D      CM7
Go back to sleep and hide away
          Bm7                    Em
Inside a dream through miles and miles
          D                  CM7
of dreary gray you'd like to stay
Bm7              Em  D  CM7   Bm7
You know you can't
 
[Bridge]
Em      D     CM7    Bm7
Still I will be merry
 
[Outro]
