this is how stone plays it live with a capo on the 5th fret
intro
C Am G Am F ( x2 )
verse
C Am G Am F
once divided , nothing left to subtract
C Am G Am F
some words when spoken can’t be taken back
C Am G Am F
walks on his own with thoughts he can’t help thinking
C Am G Am F
future’s above , but in the past he’s slow and sinking
Am G F
caught a bolt of lightning , cursed the day he let it go
chorus :
C Am G
nothingman , nothingman
C F G
isn’t it something? nothingman
2nd verse :
C Am G Am F
she once believed in every story he had to tell
C Am G Am F
one day she stiffened , took the other side
C Am G Am F
empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell
C Am G Am F
one just escapes , one’s left inside the well
F G F C G
and he who forgets will be destined to remember oh oh oh
chorus :
C Am G
nothingman , nothingman
C F G
isn’t it something? nothingman
bridge :
F Am G
oh , she don’t want him ( she don’t want him )
G F Am F G
oh , she won’t feed him , after he’s flown away
F Am F
oh , into the sun , yeah into the sun
F G
burn , burn , burn burn
chorus :
C Am G
nothingman , nothingman
C F G
isn’t it something? nothingman
C Am G
nothingman , nothingman
C F G
coulda been something , nothingman
