Chords for Numb//Encore (some original lyrics) by Matt Smith & Brooks Bankord

_ How are ya'll doing?
_ _ Doing alright? Doin' good.
What you're doing tonight?
_ _ Just doing good.
Alright, we got a song [N] for you called Melancholy.
Melancholy. _
You ready?
_ [C#] _ _ _ _
[E] Oh oh, oh oh _ [Cm] _ Oh [G] oh, oh oh
[D] _ _
Oh [E] oh, oh oh [C] Oh _ _ [G] oh, oh oh
[D] _ _ _
Can I get an encore?
If you want more, [C] let's explore what's down [G] through the core.
So for one of many times, I need y'all to [D] roar. _ _
[E] I'm telling you what I've been waiting for.
[C] After this, there will be much more.
[G] So for one of many times, I need y'all to [D] roar. _ _
_ [Em] _ _ My [C] heart's a hip hop, it's changed, take it back to the [G] start.
Got roots on the guitar, now we're rich in [D] the hat.
Now who you know can come up with a whole rhythm [E]-y bat.
Still a roof rat, but I don't feel [C] unaccepted.
Cause nobody seems to respect when I drop a record, [G] man.
Respect from Jan plans the world.
[D] So I'm walking the way to [C] shore.
Make it score, the shores are for a [D] crew.
Truths getting up on the next day with no [E] money.
Man, I'm so hungry for your [G] acceptance.
Now I'm running [C] for seconds, please just clap for me.
Cause that's all I need [D] for my pencil to pad as I bleed.
[E] I mean, my whole soul's devoted to this [D] song.
And I plan to be here for years to come.
Alright, cool.
Do you want more?
[C] Let's explore what's down to the core.
[G] So for one of many times, please make some noise.
_ _ Alright, [E] cool.
Do you want more?
[C] Let's explore what's down to [G] the core.
So for one of many times, please make some noise.
[D] _ _ _ _ [E] It's harder than what you [C] wanted me to be.
[G] _ Feelings don't make [D] things, lost under the surface.
[E] That's almost what [D] you're expecting of [G] me.
But under the pressure [D] of what being [E] your pursuit.
Can't you see [C] that it's murdering me?
[G] I'm holding too tightly, [D] afraid to lose [E] control.
Tell me things [C] that you thought I would be.
[G] _ Falling apart [D] right in front [C] of you.
_ [D] _ _ _ [B] Every step that I take [G] is another mistake to [C] _ _
you.
[D] _ _ And [E] every second I waste [D] is more than I can _ [Em] take.
I've been through the most [C] of what I can do.
[G] There's a big [D] hole so tight, so low.
[E] There's nothing [C] holding this.
All I want [G] to do is be more [D] like me and less [E] like you. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I've always wanted [C] to do what life would be like.
[G] Taking steps on my own [D] to finally be in my own [E] shadow.
And I'm only a black man, [C] I'm always on the train and I'm [G] sore.
Because I am who I am, [D] and my hands are on my wings and sore.
[G] _ But you can only [D] imagine this time.
[E] Here's my choice, here's my life.
[G] It's for me and myself [D] to decide.
[G]
I'm staying on [D] my love and I'm going where my hands shine.
Cause [E] I'm over greatness, making it [D] mine.
My life's on my wings and fly.
[B] And I'm getting high on the floor.
Can you hear me [C] roar?
Let's explore what's down to [G] the core.
The wind and the concrete makes a [D] noise.
_ _ [E] And I'm telling you what I've been waiting [C] for.
After this there won't be much [G] more.
So everybody please go and make some [D] noise.
_ _ [E] And I'm getting high on the floor.
Can you hear me roar?
[G] Let's explore what's down to the [G] core.
In the corner many times I need to stop and [D] roar.
_ And [E] I'm getting high on the floor.
Can you hear [D] me roar?
Let's explore what's down to the [G] core.
When I finish this rhyme please make some [D] noise.
_ _ [C] And I'm getting high on the floor.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[F#] I'm on the [C] floor.
_ [D] _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ That's all I can say.
Love you. _
