    Defining the chords:

    Note: As some chords are kinda odd and I don't know the exact name

          for them, I added a "*" to these chords. If anyone knows the

          names or has any corrections, please e-mail me!

    Intro: 

    Dmaj7; A*; E*; E; E*; E  (2x)

    

    Verse 1: (chords clear)

                   Dmaj7      A*        E*   E     E*  E  (repeat 6x)

    I'm going from strange to stranger, every year

    I'm going from strange to stranger, every year

    I take it back, you're panicking, I take it back

    I just don't know, I really thought I wanted to go

    But when you're close, you look through me just like a ghost

    I like sleeping, I'm only safe when I'm dreaming

    I need a new heart, this one's hollow, always scheming

        A5           E5

    You wait for the summer

                 F#5          A

    And then you wait for the winter

                                E

    But there's a total lack of splendor

  

    

    Chorus #1: (chords distorted) 

   D    A     Amaj7            f#

    Zen Brain, throw away your crushes

   E                   D         A

    All your childhood crutches away

   D      A      Amaj7           f#

    Super brain, never scared of nothing

   E            D         A

    violence or loving my way

  

    

    Interlude: [by the way, I don't know if this expression is right.

                I'm German, you know... ;-)]

  

    Play the same chords as during the verse, but distorted, 2x.

  

    

    Verse 2: (clear)

                   Dmaj7      A*        E*   E     (repeat, guess, 3x) 

    I'm going from strange to stranger, every year

    I'm going from strange to stranger, every year

    I take it back, you're panicking, I take it back

    I just don't know, I really thought I wanted to go  

  

    

    Chorus #2: (distortion)

    D   A

    Zen brain...

       .

       .

       .

    E                  D        A       B

    All your childhood crutches away, today

  

    

    Repeat chorus #2

  

    

    END
