A Song About An Anglerfish Tab de uke por Hank Green

C         F      G            C
 Yes it's true that I once went through life
      C              F            G         C
 As a guy who always had to rhyme life with strife
                F                    G
 Yes, I've been burned and I've been spurned
                C                Am
 And through it all, yes, I have learned
              F                 F
 That love is not about whether you get stabbed
         F                    G
 But how slow the knife gets turned


        F                     F
 But my friends I've found an animal
     F                 F
 Who doesn't feel this pain
        F               F
 And my life is so much better 
          F              G
 Now that I can feel the same


             C              F
 Because you can't hate the night
           G
 If you've lived your whole life without light
         C              F
 And you can't hate the dish
           G
 If you've only ever eaten fish
         C          F
 And you can't feel alone
         G               C
 If it's all you've ever known


          F              F
 Yeah the deep sea anglerfish
        F            F
 Has no reason to be happy
        G               C
 But it has no frikkin' idea
 F            C
 What else to be


 C                     F
 The deep sea dwelling anglerfish
       G             C
 Never has to find a mate
          C            F
 They are always there together
           G             F
 When it's time to procreate


     F                 G
 See one dark night, a young male
           C             Am
 Bites the female on her side
          F           F
 And then slowly he becomes
            F          G
 A sperm-producing parasite


        F             F
 And if we can say he lives at all
    F               F
 He lives until she dies
       F               F
 And until that day he literally
 F                G
 Never leaves her side


             C              F
 Yeah you can't hate the night
           G
 If you've lived your whole life without light
         C              F
 And you can't hate the dish
           G
 If you've only ever eaten fish
         C          F
 And you can't feel alone
         G               C
 If it's all you've ever known


          F              F
 Yeah the deep sea anglerfish
        F            F
 Has no reason to be happy
        G               C
 But it has no frikkin' idea
 F            C
 What else to be


     C                   F
 For years this rule has kept me
        G        C
 Out of hopeless despair
     C             F
 You simply do not feel
         G      C
 What is always there


   F               G
 I ask my brain to entertain
      C           Am
 That pain is the same
           F               F
 That if I feel it all the time
         F              G
 Can you really call it pain


   F              F
 I don't have any friends
       F              F
 And I don't have any hair
     F                F
 But neither does the anglerfish
     F           G
 And she doesn't care


             C              F
 Because you can't hate the night
           G
 If you've lived your whole life without light
         C              F
 And you can't hate the dish
           G
 If you've only ever eaten fish
         C          F
 And you can't feel alone
         G               C
 If it's all you've ever known


          F              F
 Yeah the deep sea anglerfish
        F            F
 Has no reason to be happy
        G               C
 But she has no frikkin' idea
 F            C
 What else to be
