It is very important that you mute/don't play the g string on the F# chord. However, if you
can't avoid this, you can put a capo on the 3rd fret, and hitting the open string will make
the same sound as the d string.
(Light Strumming) B, F#
Is there a sign on the back of my head that says desensitized?
(Fast Strumming) B, F#
Well I?m sorry I said anything. You sang a song and then learned to sing
and said that you missed the songs you sang before you learned anything.
In a fishbowl on the beach, I know the salty water stings,
but it?s not hard to see from a bowl the world?s out of reach.
D#, A#, B, F#

F# (Strumming this chord for a few measures)
B, F#

but no. No such conch, no pontoon, no one is listening to you.
The sun does wonders to your brain the way it burns right through.
I am swimming in a trough, I?m sure you?ve written me off by now but
just when I think that all is lost, I see you stepping in the water.
D#, A#, B, F#
