Beck ~ Volcano
Modern Guilt
  EmI've been walking on these Gstreets so long
I don't know   Cwhere they're Ggoing to leaBd anymore
  EmBut I think I must have Gseen a ghost
I don't know   Cif it's my illGusions that keeBp me alive
  AI don't know what I've Cseen   
Was it all an illEusion  All a miGrage gone bad 
Ohhhhh   AI'm tired of eCvil
And all that it fEeeds  But I don't kGnow
   EmI've been drifting on this Gwave so long
I don't know   Cif it's Galready crasheBd on the shore
  EmAnd I've been riding on this Gtrain so long
I can't tell   Cif it's you or me who's Gdriving us iBn-to the ground
  AI don't know if I'm Csane
But there's a ghost in my Eheart  Who's trying to Gsee in the dark
Ohhhhh   AI'm tired of pCeople
Who only want to be plEeased  But I still want to pGlease you
  GAnd I heard of that FJapanese girl
Who jumped Eminto the volCcano
Was she Atrying to make it Cback
  EmBack into the womb of the wForld
  EmI've been drinking all these Gtears so long
All I've got   Cleft is the Gtaste of Bsalt in my mouth
Em  G
C   G   B
  AI don't know where I've Cbeen
But I know where I'm gEoing  To that volcGano
Ohhhhh   AI don't want to fall in Cthough
Just want to warm my boEnes on that fire a whGile
A   C   E   G
A   C   E   G
