Intro - | G | D | Am | C/G |    x2

G                     D       Am                 C/G
 Deep down in the underground,  atoms spinning round and round
 G           D        Am      C/G
Scientists monitor readings
 G                D           Am                 C/G
Searching for the Holy Grail, the particle or at least the tale
       G                 D            Am       A
Of the one who gives the universe its meaning.

C/G                     G          D              Em     (lift fingers off 4 & 5 string & play)
   But what if there's nothing, no big answer to find?                 (open for run up to C/G)
C/G                G                   D    
   What if we're just passing through time?

F       C/G          G
No one knows nothing anymore
F       C/G           G
Nobody really knows the score
F       C/G    G
Nobody knows anything
F             C/G              A
Let's break it down and start again

G                      D
 What happens when the markets drop,
Am                      C/G
  If the numbers really don't add up?
G          D            Am       C/G
Everyone seeks the safe haven.
G                     D
 And as they contemplate their ruin,
  Am                                C/G
The self-proclaimed smartest people in the room
    G             D               Am        A
Are trying very hard not to sound craven

C/G                     G           D             Em       (lift fingers off 4 & 5 string & play)
   But what if there's nothing, no pot of gold to find?                (open for run up to C/G)
C/G          G                D    
   Only the blind leading the blind.

F       C/G          G
No one knows nothing anymore
F       C/G           G
Nobody really knows the score
F       C/G    G
Nobody knows anything
F             C/G              A
Let's break it down and start again

Cmaj7
   Let's stop pretending 
         *                       Cmaj7         (* Walkdown on 6 string from 3 to 2 to open,then onto)
We can manage our way out of here.                (Em chord and then play open then onto Cmaj7 chord)
                         *
Let's stop defending the indefensible.
Cmaj7
   Let's stop relying on
    *
The lecturing of the experts
       A            
Whose spin just makes our plight incomprehensible.

G              D         Am                   C/G
High up on a mountain top, somebody with a skinhead crop
G                 D              Am      C/G
Is thinking deep thoughts for us all.
G            D         Am                           C/G
Serenity is all around, but if you listen you can hear the sound
 G                   D               Am      A
Of one head being banged against the wall.

C/G                  G              D             Em      (lift fingers off 4 & 5 string & play)
   But what if our ancestors had stayed up in the trees                 (open for run up to C/G)
C/G                         G                D
   Who'd be sleeping weighed down by these worries?

F       C/G          G
No one knows nothing anymore
F       C/G           G
Nobody really knows the score
F       C/G    G
Nobody knows anything
F             C/G              A
Let's break it down and start again
