Riff 1, 2, 1, 1

Verse:
F2                        C2        
   Another question in me. One for the powers that be
F2                             Am        
   It's got me thrown and so I put on my poker face
F2                          C2         
   And try to figure it out. This undeniable doubt
F2                       Am
   A common occurrance.  Feeling so out of place
F2                         C2         
   Guarded and cynical now, can't help but wondering how
F2                         Am                     Dm
   My heart evolved into a rock beating inside of me
     F                        C2                        Am
So I reel such a stoic ordeal where's that feeling that I don't feel?

Chorus:
Fm                          C#maj7
There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
G#                          Cm
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Fm                      C#maj7
Without a trace, he disappeared into the void and
G#                  Cm                      C#maj7   C#2     
I've been searchin' for that missing person

Verse 2:    Played Like Verse 1 
Under a lavender moon, so many thoughts consume me.
Who dimmed that glowing light that once burned so bright in me?
Is this a radical phase a problematical age
That keeps me running from all that I used to be?
Is there a way to return, is there a way to unlearn,
That carnal knowledge that's chipping away at my soul?
I've been gone too long will I ever find my way home?

Chorus 2:    Played Like Chorus 1 
There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace, he disappeared into the void and
I've been searchin' for that missing person
He used to want to try to walk the strait and narrow
He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow
It's been a long time and I haven't seen him lately but
I've been searchin' for that missing person
C#maj7   G#                     C#maj7   G#
         For that missing person         For that missing person
Gm     D#maj7     A#     Dm     Gm     D#maj7     A#     Dm
                Ohh                              Ohh
Chorus 3: 
Gm                          D#maj7
There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
A#                          Dm
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Gm                      D#maj7
Without a trace, he disappeared into the void and
A#                 Dm
I've been searchin' 
Gm                        D#maj7
He used to want to try to walk the strait and narrow
A#                         Dm
He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow
Gm                          D#maj7
It's been a long time and I haven't seen him lately but
A#                  Dm
I've been searchin' for that missing person
