Sometimes I try songs and they don't sound so good.
[C]
[G#] So I googled the lyrics because [E] I didn't know them,
and I just put in one lyric center,
hit the first [G] thing that came up, and there it was.
Bam!
[A]
Lyrics to One.
[C#] But it wasn't in the [N] U2 lyrics, because apparently the most
googled [B] lyrics for a song called One is a band named [Am] Metallica.
[A]
[F#] [E] And then the third one is Harry Nilsson,
[N] which is the Three Dark Nights.
So, one is the noise, and the other is the pain.
Till can you know it.
Anyway, so when the Metallica lyrics came up,
I thought, well, fuck it.
Let's see what that sounds like.
And [C#m] so I figured it out.
This is what it sounds [Am] like.
[D]
[F] [Am]
[G]
[Am]
[D]
[F]
[G]
[Am]
I can't remember [D] everything.
[F] [Am]
Is this [G] true or just a [C] dream?
[G] [Am]
Down in the side I feel to scream.
[F]
The terrible [G] silence [C] is stopping me.
Now that the war [Am] is through with [C] me.
[F]
Waking up but [C] I can't see.
That there ain't [Am] much left of [C] me.
[F]
Nothing is real.
[C] Nothing is real.
But the pain now.
Being down in the [F#] side is much too real.
[F] The [Am] impulse [Em] I must [C] [G] feel.
[Am]
But I can't look [D]
forward to me [F] now.
[Am] Look to a [G] time when [C] I can heal.
Fed to machines [Am] that are stuck in [C] me.
[F]
Stagger all the time, [C]
not repeat.
Tied to machines that [Am]
made me [C] [F] be.
Cut this out all.
[C] Yeah, cut this out all from [Am]
me.
[D]
[F]
[G]
[C] [Am]
And I [D] am taken [F] aside to the way [G] my skin.
[Am]
To the way [D] my hearing.
[F]
Left me [G] with a life without.
[C] Darkness
[Am] surrounds me.
[C]
[F] All I [C] hear, all I see.
I can't live without.
[Am]
I can't die [C] [F] without.
I'm trapped in myself.
[C] Trapped in myself.
All I am is taken.
[Am]
Taken my sight.
[C] Taken my hearing.
[Am] Taken my [C] eyes.
Left my wounds.
Left [G] me with life in hell.
My body, [B] my [F] holding cell.
I cannot die.
[C] Now the world is gone.
Just one.
[Am] Just [C] one.
[F] Hold my [Am] breath as [C] I wish to forget.
Just one [Am]
please.
God, [C] wake me.
[F]
God, help me.
[C]
God, take me.
Hold my breath [Em] as [Am] I wish to forget.
[C] [F]
Please, please [G] God.
Please God, [C] take me.
[F]
[D#m]
[D]
Please God, take [Am] me.
