A            D                  F#m
Your grandpa died when you were nine
          E               A
They said he had lost his mind
          D              F#m
You have learned way too soon
           E                    A     D    F#m    E
You should never trust the pantaloon
              A             F#m
You are tired, you are hurt
                 E                     D
A moth ate through your favorite shirt
                    A         F#m                  E
And all your friends fertilize the ground you walk
E/G# D    A
Lose your mind


[Verse 2: Joseph]
    A                 D
I'm never what I like

I'm double-sided
F#m                  E
And I just can't hide

I kinda like it
A                   D
When I make you cry
                     F#m               E
Cause I'm twisted up,    I'm twisted up, inside my mind

Down in the forest,    we'll sing a chorus
Bb             F   Dm    C
One that everybody knows
Bb        F        Dm      C
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire
Bb           F            Dm  C
Singing songs that nobody wrote
Bb         F    Dm C F                  Dm C
Down in the forest,  we'll sing a chorus
Bb             F   Dm    C
One that everybody knows
Bb        F        Dm      C
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire

 I'm standing in front of you
                           Am
 I'm standing in front of you

 I'm trying to be so cool
                               G     C
 Everything together trying to be so cool
C                           G
 I'm standing in front of you
C                           G

 Trying to be so cool, yeah yeah, yeah yeah


[Verse 5: Joseph]
G
I'll tell 'em
G     G              G
Why won't you let me go
D             G          C
Do I threaten all your plans?
    Bm       D
I'm insignificant

Please tell 'em
G   C                 G
You have no plans for me
  D           G       C
I will set my soul on fire
 Bm           D
What have I become?
           G
I'll tell 'em


[Bridge: Joseph]
   G                         D/F#
Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time
  Em                      C           G
I know I haven't been the best of sons
  G                               D/F#
Hello, I've been traveling in the deserts of my mind
    Em                C
And I haven't found a drop


[Verse 6: Joseph]
G
I tried desperately to run through the sand
      D/F#
As I hold the water in the palm of my hand
 Em
'Cause it's all that I have, and it's all that I need
         C
And the waves of the water mean nothing to me
G
But I tried my best and all that I can
         D/F#
To hold tightly onto what's left in my hand
Em
But no matter how, how tightly I will strain
    C
The sand will slow me down, and the water will drain

G
I'm just begin dramatic, in fact
                D/F#
I'm only at it again

As an addict with a pen

Who's addicted to wind
       Em
As it blows me back and forth

Mindless, spineless, and pretend
    C
Of course I'll be here again

See you tomorrow
                     G
But it's the end of today

End of my ways

As a walking denial
    D/F#
My trial was filed

As a crazy suicidal headcase
         Em
But you specialize in dying
                             C
You hear me screaming, "Father!"

And I'm lying here just crying
                       G     D/F#    Em    C
So wash me with your water


[Outro: Joseph, Crowd, Joseph & Crowd]
C
 We're broken

 We're broken
G
 We're broken
              Am      G
 We're broken people, oh
              F            G   C
 We're broken people, oh, yeah
C
 We're bro-
