Uncomfortably Numb

[Intro]:G

 

[Verse 1]: G

Sensitivity deprived

Em

I can't feel a thing inside

 

I blamed my father in my youth

C

Now as a father, I blame the booze

D G

I have become uncomfortably numb

 

[Verse 2]: G

Sensitivity deprived

Em

All my sympathy prescribed

 

I used to struggle in my youth

C

Now I'm used to struggling for two

D G

I have become uncomfortably numb

 

[Chorus]: Am

The lessons

G

The lessons

Em

Are so much

D

Are so much

C

Less obvious

 

The further you get from home

G Am

The further I get from home

G

How will you exist

Em D

How will I exist

C

Without consequence?

G

I'll let you know

 

[Verse 3]: G

We were gentle to begin

Em

When I pushed you around to break you in

 

Now whenever I try to be clear with you

C

I only end up feeling see-through

D

I've tried, but you've won

G

Comatose, like father like son

 

[Chorus]: Am

The lessons

G

The lessons

Em

Are so much

D

Are so much

C

Less obvious

 

The further you get from home

G Am

The further I get from home

G

How will you exist

Em D

How will I exist

Em

I don't want to know

 

Blacked out, protected

C

I just want you home

D G

I'll make new friends in the ambulance
