Verse:
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (2)
Once divided, nothing left to subtract
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (2)
Some words when spoken can't be taken back
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (2)
Walks on his own with thoughts he can't help thinking
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (3) C#m7
Future's above, but in the past he's slow and sinking
Asus2 (3) Bsus4
Caught a bolt of lightning, cursed the
Asus2 (3) Asus2/G# Asus2 (3) Bsus4
day he let it go
Chorus:
E (3) Asus2 Bsus4 (4)
Nothingman, nothingman
E (3) Asus2 Bsus4 (4, hold first time)
Isn't it something? Nothingman
2nd Verse:
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (2)
She once believed in every story he had to tell
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (2)
One day she stiffened, took the other side
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (2)
Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell
E (3) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 (3) C#m7
One just escapes, one's left inside the well
Asus2 (3) Bsus4
And he who forgets will be
Asus2 (3) Asus2/G# Asus2 (3) Bsus4
destined to remember
Chorus
Bridge:
C#m7 (3) Asus2 Bsus4 (3) Asus2
Oh, she don't want him Oh, she won't feed him
C#m7 (3) Asus2 Bsus4 (3) C#m7
after he's flown away
Asus2 (7) Asus2/G#
Oh, into the sun, yeah into the sun
Asus2 (3) Bsus4
Burn, burn, burn, burn
Chorus
E (3) Asus2 Bsus4 (4)
Nothingman, nothingman
E (3) Asus2 Bsus4 (hold 4)
Coulda been something, nothingman
