Tuning:Full Step Down (DGCFAD)  

     D5                A5                B5   
So I sit here writing words in our old place
              G5
They all come out as letters
       D5          A5                    B5
And I contemplate mistakes that we all make
              G5 
Start and the ending of eras
D5            A5
When mystery fades
B5              G5
We identify the problems
          D5          A5              B5       G5
But, they may not be problems after all

[Pre-Chorus]
D5         A5            B5             G5
Shock and dismay, they affect what we say
          D5                           A5
We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues 
B5                G(bar)
'Cause after all, it's only our lives anyway...
D5    G5  A5

[Chorus]
      D5            G5      
And I can't let it bother me 
   A5                  D5     A5        B5
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
      G5              A5                       F5   G5  A5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
    
     D5                A5              B5
So I sit here carving words into the wall
           G5                       D5
Words that remind me of just how I was
                A5                   B5
I never felt as old and lonely as I felt 
           G5
When I was young and in love
D5            A5
When mystery fades
B5              G5
We identify the problems
          D5          A5              B5         G5
But, they may not be problems after all

[Pre-Chorus]
D5         A5            B5             G5
Shock and dismay, they affect what we say
          D5                           A5
We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues 
B5                G(bar)
'Cause after all, it's only our lives anyway...
D5    G5  A5

[Chorus]
      D5            G5      
And I can't let it bother me 
   A5                  D5     A5        B5
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
      G5              A5                       D5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
                   G5      
And I can't let it bother me 
   A5                  D5     A5        B5
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
      G5              A5                       F5   G5  A5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
             F5 G5 A5
Too seriously,
             F5 G5 A5
Too seriously...
