Jonathan Coulton Solid State Chords Capo No
[Verse 1]
G
Used to be the stars were too far away
G
Used to be the world didn't have much to say
Em                      Am             G
Coming in close and talking at the same time
G
Small mistake, terrible crime

[Chorus 1]
D                                            C
Using up the air, trying to set yourself on fire
D                                       C
Everybody there pushing into one thin wire
                                G
But it's better than solid state

[Verse 2]
G
Never look small, but don't get too large
G
You gotta let go, you won't stay in charge
Em                      Am             G
Everything's fine, but nothing's really okay
G
It's all messed up, it's better that way

[Chorus 2]
D                                       C
Everyone you know, crooked little numbers game
D                                       C
Where you gonna go? Everywhere it's all the same
                                G
But it's better than solid state

[Bridge]
Em      C      G      D
Watch them rise and fall (one after another)
Am      C      G
Don't forget to follow through
Em      C      G      D
You learn after all (take care of each other)
Am                                              C              G
Who it hurts and how it ends, how far it goes, it all depends on you

[Verse 3]
G
Used to be the world was too far away
G
Used to be the stars didn't have much to say
Em                      Am             G
All this time, and everybody's still sad
G
We still got whatever we had

[Chorus 3]
D                                       C
Every grain of sand rubbing up against your skin
D                                       C
Everything you planned, sinking as the tide comes in
                        G
But it's better than solid state
