Front Porch Step - Island of the Misfit Boy

      If you want to play along with the song then this is the way to play it, the chords are a little more complicated but not hard. There's also a simpler version (That I'll put below it) that is one semitone higher than how he plays it. Enjoy.

I love to sleep cause I pretend that I'm dead,
D#
But I hate waking up cause it's hard to forget,
G#m                                                  E       F#
That I've lost all control of this life I've held so dear.
     B
And I wait for the bus but I'm not on the bench,
        D#
I'm just spread across the ground making friends with cement,
     G#m                                          E     F#
And I hope the bus won't miss me when it comes my way.
       G#m
Well I made a few jokes but they said they weren't funny,
  E
I tried to force a smile but they said it was ugly,
 B                                                 F#
I tried to make a friend but no one was a friend to me.
          G#m
Poured my heart to a girl and it went on the floor,
  E
I asked her what she wanted and she said she wanted more,
  B                                            F#
I tried to find a lover, all I found was an enemy.


           B
I stand in front of the mirror and look at myself,
  D#
I don't make a sound by my eyes scream out help,
    G#m
And I start to struggle to hold myself back,
     E                                  F#
From thrusting my head straight through the fucking glass.
       B
And I'm tired of falling for girls that don't care,
    D#
And breaking my back to try to make them aware,
       G#m
That I'm more than depressed, and there time won't be wasted,
    E                             F#
But I am just a broken boy that no one wants to play with.

                  

        G#m
Now I'm lost in this hole and I'm sure I am stuck,
      E
And I can't run away cause I'm lazy as fuck.
     B
So I sit on the floor and gather my thoughts,
            F#
And they're full of broken promises that only piss me off.
     G#m
Well I lost control when I only a boy,
    E
The world taught me angst when I deserved joy.
    B
Now I'm breaking down as I struggle to breath,
        F#                                     B
Cause I believe in a god who won't believe in me.

                    

           B
I stand in front of the mirror and look at myself,
  D#
I don't make a sound by my eyes scream out help,
    G#m
And I start to struggle to hold myself back,
     E                                  F#
From thrusting my head straight through the fucking glass.

    E                             F#
But I am just a broken boy that no one wants to play with.
