Facsimile Friends
Bryan ChandlerVerse
Gm F
Intoxicating: the high of sweet surrender to the fact that you'll inevitably fall
Eb. D(7)
And it's liberating: The allocating of the blame to games beyond our ken, above our pay, over the garden wall
Gm F
So frustrating: when your agency is stripped from you like just like a toddler’s vomit-covered clothes
Eb. D(7)
But it's Scintillating: there's no debating that you're gonna have a lovely time I guarantee you’ll loathe.G(M) F
Cause when you're in the moment
Eb D
They can do no wrong
G F Eb
All that matters in that moment
Cm D(7)
Is wrapped around your head like a sarongChorus
Gm Dm
So tell me baby how does it feel
Eb
To finally feel like nothing inside
D Db Cm
To finally feel like everything’s died
Bb D/A Gm
But your facsimile friends?
D(M)
They’ll up you when you’re down,
Eb
They’ll realign your frown,
D Db C(M)
And when they’ve made their amends,
Bb D/A Gm
Then your facsimile ends.
I meant to stay up all night write pony pony pony. Instead I just masturbated for about 4 hours and faffed about the rest.
1.) your endurance is legitimately inspiring
2.) This was definitey written on a piano because no guitarist in his right mind would manage the un-laziness required to write a song with this chord structure
3.) Addendum to point 2: Jazz Guitarists might but wedo not speak of them for they know the Eldritch Lore.
4.) The Eldritch Lore mainly consists of stupid chords that hurt your hands and sound dumb anyway, b-baka.
5.) I may just have a vendetta against the major 7th.
4244855 No major sevenths here, i just use the G(M) to remind readers that the G is major there, not minor, since this song switches back forth.
While I am a pianist, this was actually partially written on ukulele as well.
