Cm           Bb            Ab

you can't make me see what you think i should know

     Cm        Bb             Ab
you dont understand where im coming from

       Cm              Bb          Ab
we're passing through worlds no perception in time

   Cm               Bb      Ab

Cm      Bb   Cm      Bb

going on inside your little world

                Cm                  Bb
you should have never landed on the moon

             Cm                Bb
you heard we never reached the sky

     Cm                   Ab             Bb
then shed some light i'll lend a patient ear

Ab          Cm
dont let me down i gotta know

   Bb                   Cm               Bb
if something good could grow out on this rock

Ab      Cm
save me one more time

    Bb                Cm              Bb
and i'll be free from what i think it ought to be

   Cm                   Bb
a silhouette of you and me

     Cm                 Bb
just negative space and time

     Cm             Ab           Bb
just reference to a simpler history

    Cm                  Bb           Cm                 Bb
i'd sacrifice a million nights for a moments peace with you

  Cm              Ab        Bb
reflections to dissect reality


     Ab             Cm
it's all in what we hold as being real

         Bb                Cm                  Bb
when the symbol kills the substance then we've lost

Ab      Cm
save me one more time

    Bb                    Cm              Bb        Cm
and i'll be free from the alleyways of my heart, my heart

Cm                 Ab

we're going nowhere
Cm                    Ab                 Bb
we're going nowhere inside this state of mind
