Pain On My Mind

Graham Riley


Tom: Bm

               G
It's anyones guess
             D
How I ended up like this
   Bm
I used to be love
             A
But now I'm just flesh
               G
It's anyones try
                     D
How I've screwed it up this time
           Bm
I thought music was enough
                 A
But that was a lie


[Chorus]
                        G
I never followed my feelings
                 D
I followed my brain, so tired
              Bm
And even my heart's hardwired
       A
To be lonely inside
                     G
Don't have much to believe in
                   D
Don't know anyone real, go hide
             Bm
None of my friends ask why
           A
I really hate to cry
                      G   Gmaj7  Dmaj7  Bm   A
I've got pain on my mind


[Verse 2]
              G
Keep up the charades
             D
Continue to play these games
      Bm
They might seem like fun
          A
Until you play fate
                  G
I think you're confused
                    D
I think that your life's a ruse
            Bm
You might think you've won
                         A
But you've forgot the rules


[Chorus]
                        G
I never followed my feelings
                 D
I followed my brain, so tired
              Bm
And even my heart's hardwired
       A
To be lonely inside
                     G
Don't have much to believe in
                   D
Don't know anyone real, go hide
             Bm
None of my friends ask why
           A
I really hate to cry
                      G
I've got pain on my mind


[Bridge]
G
I never asked for much
         Dmaj7
I just asked for love
         D                            Em
But I guess that's too much when it comes to you

I get played for a fool
         F#7                                            G
And at this point it's like crying tears in a pool

Scenes like you won't believe
         D
Like a movie screen
                                      Em
But I guess that's too much when it comes to this

There's no hit just a miss
           F#7               F#
And I'm falling I'm sinking into the abyss


[Chorus]
                        G
I never followed my feelings
                 D
I followed my brain, so tired
              Bm
And even my heart's hardwired
       A
To be lonely inside
                     G
Don't have much to believe in
                   D
Don't know anyone real, go hide
             Bm
None of my friends ask why
           A
I really hate to cry
                      G
I've got pain on my mind
