I'm Not Getting Excited

[Intro]
(All Chords are Power Chords)
G E F Gb 
(x4)
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
I'm not getting excited
 
'Cause the thrill isn't mine to invite in
 
Just the chill when I learn that it's finally my turn
 
I have finally earned my place in the urn
C
And I take a fall
 
But I keep my hands soft
 
I keep my body limp and I move with the wind
                            Bb                      G
I'll go where it bends and let go of the expectation
 
G E F Gb
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
I'm not getting excited
 
'Cause the light on my phone's got me hiding
 
When it flashes at night, it's the bringer of signs
 
I can see through my eyelids, I know that it's time
      C
And I hold it all
 
But I keep my hands soft
 
All the answering, asking, my thoughts are a rat king
                                 Bb
There's no point untangling the thought from the action
         G
I'm awake
 
G E F Gb
 
 
[Chorus]
D                          C
What is it like, the other side
              Bb                G
Where all my vital signs aren't fading away?
D                       C
Violent dreams keep me awake
           Bb               G
I wear the same face in the morning
 
A warning
 
 
[Instrumental Bridge]
G E F Gb
 
 
[Verse 3]
G
I'm not getting excited
 
'Cause my fight and my flight are divided
 
And so I don't enthuse, keep my grip on joy loose
 
And I wait for the news with my feet in my shoes
      C
And I lose it all
 
With one foot out the door
 
When I smile, I lie with my eye to the side
     Bb
So I greet with goodbye, I greet with goodbye
      G
Yeah, goodbye
 
N.C.
 
 
[Chorus]
D                          C
What is it like, the other side
              Bb                G
Where all my vital signs aren't fading away?
D                       C
Violent dreams keep me awake
           Bb               G
I wear the same face in the morning
N.C.
A warning
N.C.
A warning
