Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

Once divided, nothing left to subtract

Some words when spoken can't be taken back

Walks on his own with thoughts he can't help thinking

Future's above, but in the past he's slow and sinking

Caught a bolt of lightning, cursed the day he let it go

Chorus

Nothingman, nothingman

Isn't it something? Nothingman

2nd Verse:

She once believed in every story he had to tell

One day she stiffened, took the other side

Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell

One just escapes, one's left inside the well

And he who forgets will be destined to remember oh oh oh

Chorus

Nothingman, nothingman

Isn't it something? Nothingman

Bridge

Oh, she don't want him (she don't want him)

Oh, she won't feed him, after he's flown away

Oh, into the sun, yeah into the sun

Burn, burn, burn burn

Chorus

Nothingman, nothingman

Isn't it something? Nothingman

Nothingman, nothingman

Coulda been something, nothingman
