daniel johnston - mind movies
(...is and always was)
easy!!!! just listen for the strumming
there are some extra electric guitar thingies but i'm too lazy
to figure them out.
intro: E  
verse:
yEou mAake a lot of movies in your mEind
aEnd you suAre are impossibly unkEind
yEou've gAot me by the skull this time, i'm scaEred
aEnd i suAre can't simply disaEppear
yEou're evAerywhere all at once and i fEear
chorus: 
       G    C    D(Dsus2)       |
i love you so               |
            G    C    D(Dsus2)  | X2
and i can't let go          |
i am nowhere to be seen, i'm out to lunch
and i don't want things to turn out wrong
so girl don't you turn and run
i'm just a psycho trying to write a song
and talk is cheap, i'm just a creep for your love
i love you so 
and i can't let go
you never were a zero til you die
and i never thought you existed until you cry
but you just can't prove a thing because you lied
you make a lot of movies in your mind
and you sure are impossibly unkind
you got me by the skull this time, i'm scared
and i can't simply disappear 
i love you so      |
and i can't let go | (a couple of times + end on 'i love')
