C F C G You have captchalogued my heart C F G And you just won't let it go You've got it trapped inside your sylladex with all the things that I want you to know And your strife specibus is lovekind So I can't bear to be apart I wish that I could forget you but I can't Cause you have captchalogued my heart Am F C G You've been having trouble with your fetch modus But I think that I can help you out Just set it to array and you will be okay But it's harder for me to get my heart back now I'd love for you to be my server player When we get our betas of Sburb And I'll hope it but I know it won't be fair And we won't go back to the way we were Cause you have captchalogued my heart And you just won't let it go You've got it trapped inside your sylladex with all the things that I want you to know And your strife specibus is lovekind So I can't bear to be apart I wish that I could forget you but I can't Cause you have captchalogued my heart And if you're time then I am space We'll capture frogs all over the place And strip the Black Queen of her ring And work together in the battle against the Black King You could say I'm homestuck but that would be cheesy I'm down on my luck Getting out of here isn't easy Just help me carve my totem and I'll be on my way Cause when we're both in the Medium I'll be able to say That you have captchalogued my heart And you just won't let it go You've got it trapped inside your sylladex with all the things that I want you to know And while we're here in the Incipisphere I'll finally tell you how I feel And although we might have won this game I still don't know if you feel the same Just give me my heart back and I'll be okay

C E7 My life is a series of obsessions F Fm I go from liking one thing to liking more If you asked me a simple question I'd go on and on and you'd get pretty bored But it's not my fault that there are so many things Out there to love and to admire So let me have my tv shows and let me have my movies And let me get obsessed sometimes C F And if you say the word I will tell you C G All about this thing I love and try to compel you Am F C G Watch this thing, watch it now I don't think that you really know how Much I love it, or maybe, well you do I guess you don't have like it if you don't want to My life has little meaning without culture I jump from books to tv and then back again My room is full of posters and my books are full of notes And I can't understand why my friends don't get it Why can't they see how beautiful it is I respect the fact that you like reality TV So why can't you just return the favor And watch a little science fiction please And if you say the word I will tell you All about this thing I love and try to compel you Read this thing, read it now I don't think that you really know how Much I love it, or maybe, well you do I guess you don't have like it if you don't want to And so I will keep on writing fanfic Keep on drawing pictures and singing songs These things mean the world to me, and it might be hard to see But with imagination you can’t go wrong From fashion to books to music to art to shows to sports to games to movies Obsessions are what makes me who I am right now And they are what inspires me

A# You're sitting at your desk Cmaj Hitting refresh F Dm Over and over and over You should go to bed You need to rest But time seems to be passing slower You can't seem to find Any peace of mind In the light of your computer screen It's two-thirty AM And you wonder when you're ever going to sleep It's been twenty-four hours since the last page How much longer will we have to wait F For the update Dm Who's gonna die A# Cmaj What alien kid is gonna make you cry How will a comic make you broken-hearted And how many shipping wars will get started What headcanons will be dismantled And will the fandom be able to handle What Andrew Hussie will create With the next update And then your heart sinks When there's no unclicked links You just want to know what happens next So to a new tab you switch To get your fanfiction fix And read about teen alien sex But suddenly Your notifier beeps You click over and begin to read You scan the page And fall into a daze This one'll bring the fandom to its knees Three new panels and a pesterlog Everyone stands still in shock and awe At the update Who's gonna die What alien kid is gonna make you cry How will a comic make you broken-hearted And how many shipping wars will get started What headcanons will be dismantled And will the fandom be able to handle What Andrew Hussie will create With the next update Within five minute's there's fanart And after ten the arguments start At fifteen you get the cosplayers And at twenty everybody's like it's not fair But after a while things start to dissipate Peoples' ships are sunk and it's a bit too late To argue about what's canon now Cause no one really understands it anyhow And all there's left to do is wait For the next update

D F Ever since we got here C To this sleepy town in Oregon We’ve been suspicious There’s something creepy going on My brother found a book and you won’t guess what’s inside Pages and pages of the strangest things, it’s some sort of guide G D to the place where we’re spending our summer G A And I can’t wait to discover D F C The magic mysteries of Gravity Falls G A We’ve already had some close calls F A# With monsters, tricks, and magic, illusions so fantastic F A Each week we get back at it, with new questions F No matter what we do A# I’ll know that there is more to A D the town of Gravity Falls! The citizens and tourists Seem to be unaware Of all the crazy weirdo stuff that tends to happen here But my brother and I are determined To get to the bottom of all this With all our adventures we keep stumbling into Clues that we just can’t miss And I hope by the time this summer ends I’ve made a whole lot of new friends and figured out The magic mysteries of Gravity Falls We’ve already had some close calls With monsters, tricks, and magic, illusions so fantastic Each week we get back at it, with new questions No matter what we do I’ll know that there is more to the town of Gravity Falls! I hope we make some sense Of these bizarre events Before the summer’s done And everyone we meet Is not quite what they seem But at least we’re having lots of fun with The magic mysteries of Gravity Falls We’ve already had some close calls With monsters, tricks, and magic, illusions so fantastic Each week we get back at it, with new questions No matter what we do I’ll know that there is more to this town of Gravity Falls!

C G I wanted to see the stars F C G So I signed up for an entertainment job On a spaceship set to go out there It didn’t matter how or why, I just didn’t care Am F as long as I left my home C G And I was alone Am F G With just the universe for company But then we crashed down slow I thought I survived, but I just didn’t know That they wanted me for my mind And they made me into something else, but after all this time C F C G I’m still human can’t you see Am F C G I’m no monster, I’m no machine Am F C G At least I’m still alive, though I hide away inside Am F C but I’m still human, I’m still me And then you heard my song After I had been waiting for so long And I helped and I guided you Hoping I could help get you all the way through To where I could be saved And not be afraid Of everything that I’d become So please take me away Please free me from my mind, free me from this cage And we’ll travel as far as we can I just want to make you see what I am I’m still human can’t you see I’m no monster, I’m no machine At least I’m still alive, though I hide away inside but I’m still human, I’m still me Am F You know I’m a genius C G You don’t need to make me prove it Am F But I’ll never make out out of here C G If you think I’m not even human I’m still human can’t you see I’m no monster, I’m no machine At least I’m still alive, though I hide away inside but I’m still human, I’m still me

Am F People keep on asking me C G What is Homestuck exactly You have probably seen it around Well listen here cause I will tell you what it's all about It's a whole lot more than what you’re looking for It's clever and whimsical, confusing but magical It might be a little strange But it's really incredible C G It's about four kids who play a game Am F And nothing will ever be the same There's time travel shenanigans Crazy plots and aliens They're trying to save the universe But not if the bad guys get them first They're gonna need a lot of luck Am F C In the crazy world of Homestuck It's a web comic with reader participation And every so often there's a flash animation With music and it's really really good You can buy albums of it, and you should That doesn't cover half of it The first part's slow but please don't quit It picks up the pace after a while So please just give it a try It's about four kids who play a game And nothing will ever be the same There's time travel shenanigans Crazy plots and aliens They're trying to save the universe But not if the bad guys get them first They're gonna need a lot of luck In the crazy world of Homestuck And don't let the fandom scare you They're not quite as bad as they seem Well maybe they are but that's not the point Don't let anyone stop you from enjoying it It's more than a comic Because it's a whole world The writing is fantastic And the art's spectacular So just try it out And keep on clicking It might be weird at first but it'll start sticking Cause it's about four kids who play a game And nothing will ever be the same But it's really so much more than that So give Homestuck a chance.

C F Have you ever watched a movie and thought to yourself C G These characters touch each other quite a lot C F Then you start to wonder, what if they became a couple C F C Boy, I think that would be really hot And then before you know it you’ve made up a whole big story About what would happen if they hooked up Your entire life’s about them now, you’ve become obsessed somehow You’ve become a shipper, just like us Am F Am G And once you accept that, you will find out that….. C F C G Everything’s better with shipping C F C G Everything’s better with some good old fashioned slash C F You might even make it better, oh C G With a little hetero C G C But everyone knows that shipping’s where it’s at And you can’t have one ship now, you’ve got to have many You’ve got ships for all your favorite shows And you’re thinking that eventually, with this much crazy chemistry They’re gonna get together, you just know But the powers that be are all conspiring against you Sinking your ships all left and right What does anything else matter when your ship won’t be canon You read fanfiction to make it through the night And now you’ve found out that, it’s totally true that…. Everything’s better with shipping Everything’s better with some good old fashioned slash You might even make it better, oh With a little hetero But everyone knows that shipping’s where it’s at Am F You ship characters who’ve never talked C G You ship cousins and brothers You ship threesomes, foursomes, OT5s Everybody should be lovers The path of a shipper’s life isn’t too easy There will always be sadness and tears But remember online, you will always find Shippers who share all your feels Everything’s better with shipping Everything’s better with some good old fashioned slash You might even make it better, oh With a little hetero But everyone knows that shipping’s where it’s at

The Fall 04:47
Dm Gm We all knew this day would come A# It’s a foregone conclusion A With an old resolution But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s done What’s the chance of survival The detective and his rival Down, down, down, down When Moriarty sets a trap He won’t underestimate And they’ll all participate Three break-ins to prove his worth After Adler and the Hound And now the only way is down Down, down, down, down F C And he left him behind when he fell Gm A# Three years of emptiness is hell F Please don’t be dead, he says C I don’t want it to end, he says Gm A# He was the greatest man I ever knew Dm What do I do Following the trail he set Through cases and mysteries Through fakes and false histories A trial and he was set free And there goes a last chance This will be the last dance Down, down, down, down They’ve all turned against him for sure Been injected with doubt He just has to get out And Sherlock knows he won’t be coming back There’s only one way out And that way is down Down, down, down, down And he left him behind when he fell Three years of emptiness is hell Please don’t be dead, he says I don’t want it to end, he says He was the greatest man I ever knew What do I do He’s gone, his friends are safe It’s over and it’s too late But what they don’t know is that he’s still around It’ll be a while before he really goes down He’ll be having new adventures that we can see But we’ll have to wait until season three
