Verse:
D D A A
Life's too short to even care at all,
G G A A
I'm losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' control
D D A A
These fishes in the sea, they're staring at me woah,
G G A A
A A wet world aches for a beat of a drum.

Chorus:
Bm Bm
If I could find a way to see this straight
A A
I'd run away
G G Bm Bm A A
To some fortune that I should have found by now
G G Bm Bm A A
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down.

If I could find a way to see this straight

It sounds good! I'm not sure if G5 should be there though. It sounds a bit off, so I'm just doing Gsus2 instead.

The verse feels like it could use another chord in it but still sounds good. The "and so I run now to the things they said could restore me" part in the chorus sounds a little off
