Zach Quinn - I Am A Malcontent

      [Intro]
D G (x2)

[Verse 1]
D                                          G
You are no comedian, your scene is not a joke
D                                    G
the message left intact until you spoke
D                                                           G
scribbled down on tattered linen then moved to a glass display
D                                                G
til you cracked the glass, snatched it and ran away
                 D                    G
the kids in their bedrooms are screaming
                 D         
we're old enough now
A                           G
      to reclaim a conscious clear
D                       A    D
      we have to start somehow
E    G
let them be
   Bm         D                     G 
the sentiment is all but lost on all but me
E     G
cause unknown
 Bm           D                 G 
a sense of loss makes me feel less alone

[Chorus]
A             Fm                 Bm            G             D
days are so much better spent wading through seas of discontent yeaaah
D G (x2)

[Verse 2]
D                                                              G
the time has come to come to terms with all the things you've done
D                                  G
the guilt and anger you try and outrun
D                                                            G
spend your days having pillow talk with the bottle on your floor
D                                         G
til the dialogue just leaves you wanting more
               D                  
you cradle your booze like a baby
G                  D
      grieve identity lost
Bm            D                G
      trade our words for spitting fire
D                  A           G
ignorance in favor of desire
E    G  
still I go
Bm                  Am       G
in search for answers I may never know
E     G
still I find
Bm                 Am                      G
the strain of search helps me sleep through the night
Fm                     Bm
an uphill battles still a fight
E D G

[Chorus]
A             Fm                 Bm            G            
days are so much better spent wading through seas of discontent yeaaah

[Outro]
E               Fm
and I would rather drown 
                G
then end up like you now
Bm D Fm Bm
