Typhoon - Common Sentiments
White Lighter
DOh what am I waiting for?
A Bmspell to be cast or for Git to be broken 
DAt the very last!
Some Bmwhite ghost from my past comes to Gsplit me wide open, Doh. 		
If I bandage my eyes, will you Bmpress in my hand a Gsmall simple token?
AI was born deaf or else Bmyou've never spoken.G  
D       D6      Bm      G       D
I tDhought it was safe for me and my own,
I began Bmhearing these voices in the Gdial Dtone.
DAnd they come to me now, though I dismember my phone. 		    Bm  G  D  
They say you Dwant to hear something that you already know,
If it Bmcomes from above, but this one Gcomes from Dbelow.
It says, "You are Dsleeping together, but you will die alone.Bm"  G  D  
DOoooo-OoOOOooOOoBmoOOO-OOOOooOoooOGOooDo!
DOoooo-OoOOOooOOoBmoOOO-OOOOooOoooOGOooDo!  
I Dthought it was safe once the seed had been sown,
As a Bmchild I aspired to be a GsuperDhero.
Now I Dlive with the corpses for the lives I let go,
Well I Bmknow you all know how these Gthings start to Dshow. 
I've been Dtrying to make myself better,D  
So I can fBmare the fare foul weather.D  D  
                                      Bm   DDD
I write a song like a prison letter.
I write a Gsong maybe to make me feel Bmbetter,
GIt won't break free my fetters. 
GoooooooooOOOOOOO-OOOHHHHHH!!! 
DOoooo-OoOOOooOOoBmoOOO-OOOOooOoooOGOooDo!
DOoooo-OoOOOooOOoBmoOOO-OOOOooOoooOGOooDo!  
I kDnow what came after, but what happened before?
I began Bmmaking memories at the Gage of Dfour.
Well I Dlearned to use words,I got jealous and bored. 		 
Soon I'll be Bmpassing out cold on the Gkitchen Dfloor.
Soon I'll be Bmpassing out cold on the Gkitchen Dfloor. 
Singing, "DWhen am I gonna feel better?
I said Bmwhen am I gonna feel Dbetter?
I said Bmwhen am I gonna feel Dbetter?
I have been Gpatient for a long time now.
I've been Dpatient for a long time now.
I've been Bmpatient for a long Dtime now.
I've been Bmpatient for a long Dtime now.
And I will never Gbe a Dyounger man now.."  
1! 2! 1, 2, 3! 4, 5, 6! 
DOh what am I waiting for?
A Bmspell to be cast or for Git to be broken! D  
DAt the very last!
Some wBmhite ghost from my past comes to Gsplit me wide open, Doh!      
If I Dhold out my hand there,
BmNothing at all!
And GNothings a token! 
AI will be good though my Bmbody be broken, (GI will be good though my body be broken) 
I will be good though my body be broken, (I will be good though my body be broken) 
I will be good though my body be broken, oh-oh-ohhh (I will be good though my body be broken) 
I will be good though my body be broken, oh-oh!oh-oh!OHH! (I will be good though my body be broken) 
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-ohhh (I will be good though my body be broken) 
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-oohh!(I will be good though my body be broken) 
I will be good though my body be broken! oh-oh-oohhh(I will be good though my body be broken) 
AI will be Bmgood, may AI want for Gnothing at all.
