[Intro]
E  G#m  C#m  A x2
 
 
[Verse]
E    G#m         C#m   A
 An artificial season
E G#m         C#m    A
  Covered by summer rain
E  G#m           C#m    A
  Losing all my reason
E               G#m             C#m  A
 Cause there's nothing left to blame
 
 
[Interlude]
E  C#m  G#m  A x2
 
 
[Verse]
E  G#m                 C#m   A
  Shadows paint the sidewalk
E          G#m           C#m   A
  A living picture in a frame
E  G#m             C#m   A
  See the sea of people
E            G#m            C#m   A
  All their faces look the same
 
 
[Chorus]
E                      G5
  So I sat down for a while
Bsus2      F#m
 Forcing a smile
E                       G5
  In a state of self-denial
Bsus2         F#m
 Is it worthwhile
E                    G5
  Sell my pity for a dime
      Bsus2    F#m
Yeah, Just one dime
E                    G5
  Sell my pity for a dime

   Signs of losing my faith

Losing my faith
E(#9)    C5       G5     B5   F#5
   Plain talk can be the easy way
