I Cant Go On


I've seen a couple of close ones on this. Just a quick set of chords that you can use to play this on acoustic - sounds pretty good. D: --0232 D/F#: 20023- Bm: -24432 D2: --0230 E: 022100 A: -02220 G: 320003 Note that the D2 can be played at any point replacing a D chord, based on preference. I generally start finger-picking, and then switch to a pick midway through, before the Bridge. Intro: D D/F# D I can't go on D/F# G D Deflate the air from both of my lungs V1 D G D G Bm Fears one by one followed me home, and became reality G Bm G I'm a failure, I'm a freak; I'm a chip on your shoulder, D A The last thing you need. D G D G Bm I shudder, earth-quakes, at the thought of a life that's meaningless G Bm G D And with such a promising past, but you can always count on me A To choke in the end. Chorus: D D/F# D G D I can't go on, deflate the air from both of my lungs Bm G D A I'll be gone, long before daylight shows its face... V2 Honestly I'm taking big strides, in a race towards normalcy Where more is more and less is weak, where love is crap and Emotion speaks for us all What's really right? Who's who to say? I can survive alone again. I figured that out the hardest way; the forecast calls for fire, Flames sound nice today. Chorus I can't go on, deflate the air from both of my lungs, I'll be gone, long before daylight shows its face. It's old and worn, and its mouth smiles no more, Well I'm worth my weight in potting soil, Maybe I've tried too hard to care. Bridge: D G D I left a note on your bed A D I don't recall what it said G E Something like how I'm completely miserable G A And I'm better off dead. Outro: D D/F# D D/F# I can't go on (I can't go on) G D Bm G D A Deflate the air from both of my lungs
