VERSE: 
  C5                             Bb5 
I shake through the wreckage for signs of life 
                       F5          Ab5 
Scrolling through the paragraphs 
                     C5           G5 
Clicking through the photographs 
  C5                         Bb5 
I wish I could make sense of what we do 
                 F5        Ab5 
Burning down the capitals 
                  C5        Bb5 
The wisest of the animals 

PRE-Chorus 
Ab5 
Who are you? 
             Bb5       Ab5 
What are you living for? 
Ab5 
Tooth for tooth 
            Bb5     Bb5 
Maybe we'll go one more 

 
     Eb5        Eb5 
This life  
                   Bb5 
is lived in perfect sbymmetry 
       F5       Ab5 
What I do 
             C5          Bb5 
That will be done to me 
  
VERSE: 
     C5                 Bb5 
Read page after page of analysis 
                F5          Ab5 
Looking for the final score 
                        C5            Bb5 
We're no closer than we were before 

PRE-Chorus: 
Ab5 
Who are you? 
             Bb5        Ab5 
What are you fighting for? 
Ab5 
Holy truth 
            Bb5         Ab5 
Brother I choose this mortal.... 


    Eb5       Eb5  
...life,  
                Bb5 
lived in perfect symmetry 
       F5   Ab5 
What I do 
             C5          Bb5 
That will be done to me 
        Eb5   Eb5 
As the needle  
               Bb5 
slips into the run-out groove 
F5    Ab5 
Love 
              C5         Bb5 
Maybe you'll feel it too 
 
BRIDGE: 
                 Ab5            Eb5 
And maybe you'll find life is unkind 
         Bb5 
And over so soon 
            Ab5 
There is no golden gate 
        Eb5               Bb5 
There's no heaven waiting for you 


                   Ab5  
Oh boy, you oughta leave this town 
Bb5 
Get out while you can 
             Eb5                 C5 
The meter's running down 
                   Ab5 
The voices in the streets you love 
 Bb5                            Eb5 
Everything is better when you hear that shout 
 C5       F5 
Woah! 
 Eb5      C5 
Woah! 
  Bb5 
Woah! 

CORO: 
Eb5          Eb5 
Spineless dreamers 
Bb5 
Hide in churches 
F5          Ab5 
Pieces of, pieces of 
C5          Bb5 
Rush hour buses 
Eb5          Eb5 
I dream in e-mails 
Bb5 
Worn-out phrases 
F5          Ab5 
Mile after mile of just 
C5     Bb5 
Empty pages 


               Eb5 Eb5 Bb5 
Wrap yourself around me 
              F5  Ab5 C5  Bb5 
Wrap yourself around me 

 
        Eb5   Eb5 
As the needle  
               Bb5 
slips into the run-out groove 
        F5            Ab5 
Maybe you'll feel it too 
       C5            Bb5 
Maybe you'll feel it too
