Intro: F A
Verse
Dm Bb
I lost my head going for a crown
F A
And it's quite a funny story but I'll never write it down
Dm Bb
They switched my blood out with ink
F A
Then wrote a book inside me, thus forcing me to read
Dm Bb
Line by line, rib by rib
F A
Improper punctuation is puncturing my skin
Dm A
And yeah it hurts, but not too much
F A
Cuz I've got an ugly cover but who are you to judge?
Bb C
This open book, an open book
Bb A Dm
Another wasted tree
Bb C
An open book, an open book
F A Dm
With dust to cover me
Bb C F A
I'm just an open book that no one wants to read
Verse
Dm Bb
I've got these hands that I don't want
F A
And they shake with every letter as I scribble down my thoughts
Dm Bb
With sloppy words and sloppy form
F A
They end up on crumpled paper I throw idly on the floor
Dm Bb
But every page is yours to write
F A
We're all just pointless stories connected at the spine
Dm Bb
And by ourselves we don't make sense
F A
But when you put us all together, you start to comprehend
Bb C
This open book, an open book
Bb A Dm
Another wasted tree
Bb C
An open book, an open book
F A Dm
With dust to cover me
Bb A
I'm just an open book that no one wants to read
Bridge
Bb C
This life, it tears us to shreds
F Em Dm
Thrown on a pile to be burned with all the rest
Bb C
Just note the raindrop on a page
F Em Dm
We use our music to distort the words we say
Bb C
Cuz I think you'll like me this way
Bb C
An open book, an open book
Bb A Dm
Another wasted tree
Bb C
An open book, an open book
F A Dm
With dirt to cover me
Bb C
I'm just another book that you don't want
Bb C
An open book, an open book
Bb A Dm
Another wasted tree
Bb C
An open book, an open book
F A Dm
With dust to cover me
Bb N.C.
I'm just an open book that no one wants to read
