["My Brain Burts"]
[ A / E / D ] x4 (with lead)
[Verse]
A (pm) D
Time gets wasted every day, I watch the minutes tick away
My [F#]brain is melting [E]like a chocolate [D]ice cream bar
A (pm) D
Like characters on TV these people look like maggots to me
[F#]And I wonder [E]what the hell is [D]wrong with me
[ A / E / D ] x2 (with lead)
[Verse]
Milk-fed little beauty queen, she's straight out of a magazine
She sits beside me breathing different air than me
Perfect generation sees that I'm infected with disease
And everything just crumbles and there's nothing left
[Cborus]
If I [A]wanna do something right
I gotta [D]do it myself cause someone else will fuck it up
It [A]isn't all black and white
And now it's [E]time to stop and figure out reality
No one [A]knows what they're talking about
If [D]what they're talking don't make any sense to me
I [A]gotta figure it out
Cause [E]I don't want something to believe in
[Solo is played over tbese cbords:]
[ A / F# / D / E ] x2
[ A / C# / D ] x4
[Repeat Cborus]
[A] My [D]brain hurts, my [A]brain hurts, my [E]brain hurts to[A]day
My [D]brain hurts, my [A]brain hurts, my [E]brain hurts to[A]day
