Em (022000@1)  C (x32010@1)Em (022000@1)                                      GEvery (320003@1)new day is a gift, it's a song of redemption
Em (022000@1)                                   GAny (320003@1)expression of love is the way to return
        C (x32010@1)                                           GTo (320003@1)that place that I think of so often, but now never mention
    D (xx0232@1)                                                      EmThe (022000@1)one the voice in the back of my head says that I don't deserve

Em (022000@1)                                 
Come fire, come water, come karma
             GWe're (320003@1)all in transition
    Em (022000@1)                                   GThe (320003@1)wheel I'm becoming erases the physical mind
      C (x32010@1)                                       GUntil (320003@1)all that remains is a staircase of misinformation
        D (xx0232@1)                                        EmAnd (022000@1)the code we inherit, the basis, the essence of life

Am (x02210@1)              DSo (xx0232@1)I go, umbrella under my arm
         G (320003@1)          CInto (x32010@1)the green of the radar
Am (x02210@1)           D (xx0232@1)          GHow'd (320003@1)it get so dark in the day?
Am (x02210@1)         DIt's (xx0232@1)just so bizarre
      G (320003@1)                     CIs (x32010@1)it true what we're made of?
Am (x02210@1)     D (xx0232@1)           GWhy (320003@1)do I hide from the rain?

Inside's so cloudy, nostalgia
                 GBut (320003@1)there are no features
Em (022000@1)             
Look at ourselves through a porthole
               GThe (320003@1)passage of time
         C (x32010@1)                                        GSee (320003@1)that sunny day that we snuck out, hid under the bleachers
DKissed (xx0232@1)as the band marched
                     GEverything (320003@1)fell into line

Em (022000@1)Am (x02210@1)              DSo (xx0232@1)I go, umbrella under my arm
         G (320003@1)          CInto (x32010@1)the green of the radar
Am (x02210@1)           D (xx0232@1)       GHow'd (320003@1)I get so lost? I'm amazed.
Am (x02210@1)           DIt's (xx0232@1)just so bizarre

   Sure I have my doubts
C (x32010@1)  But I know it now
