The Trumpet Player by No Use for a Name
The Trumpet Player
G F#/G
Always in the way, I think I've had enough of this
Em D
Why is everyone so cold and lonely?
C G D
Here I go again, I'll try releting to the selfishly absurd
G F#/G
Take me for a ride and leave me somewhere I can live
Em D
Without feeling everybody's sorrow
C G
I want to feel the numbness that surrounds most of our hearts
D B7
To feel like I am normal while ripping lives apart
Em C
Somewhere on the way to degradation
G D
I met a man who put me in my place
B7
He said,"You will not see me
Em C D
You'll know the truth when you hear this trumpet play"
G F#/G
Doctor can you give me something for my state of mind?
Em D
If we're all on the same pill it's alright
C G
'Sorry son you'll have to walk this bridge without a crutch
D B7
We're out of medication, the world is out of love"
Em C
Just then I heard something from the distance
G D
The trumpet player sitting on the hill
B7 Em
He said "I really do not have an answer now"
C D
Then vanished standing still
C D
In the face on everyone I saw a little madness
G F#/G Em D
And decided not to be part of that scene
C Cm G... (13 hits on palm mute)
The only way it seemed
Em C
Always on the wrong side of affection
G D
We step on heads to get more than we need
B7 Em
Never understanding the afterglow
C D
The reflection of our greed
B7 Em
Never understanding the afterglow
C Cm (G, F#/G, Em, D, C, G, D) x2 Fade out
The reflection of... reflection of our greed
