VERSE 1 F#m A C#m Bm When I was a young boy I tried to listen F#m A C#m And I wanna feel like that F#m A C#m Bm Little white shadows blink and miss them F#m A C#m Part of a system, I am VERSE 2 If you ever feel like something's missing Things you'll never understand Little white shadows Sparkle and glisten Part of a system, a plan D Bm All this noise, I'm waking up D Bm All this space, I'm taking up D Bm I cannot hear you're breaking up D E Ohhhhhhhh F#m D Maybe you'll get what you wanted A C#m maybe you'll stumble upon it F#m D Everything you ever wanted A C#m In a permanent state Maybe you'll know when you see it Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it And when you find it you'll keep it In a permanent state, a permanent state VERSE 3 When I was a young boy I tried to listen Don't you wanna feel like that? You're part of the human race All of the stars and the outer space Part of the system, a plan D Bm All this noise, I'm waking up D Bm All this space, I'm taking up D Bm I cannot hear you're breaking up D E Ohhhhhhhh F#m D Maybe you'll get what you wanted A C#m maybe you'll stumble upon it F#m D Everything you ever wanted A C#m In a permanent state Maybe you'll know when you see it Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it And when you find it you'll keep it In a permanent state, a permanent state F#m Swam on a sea of faces D A tide of the human races A C#m Oh, an answer now is what I need See it in a new sun rising See it break on your horizon Oh, come on love, stay with me
