intro: C5 , Bb5 , Ab5 , Bb5

C5                                      Bb5
All the things we never know we need
               Ab5                       Bb5
Looks like we get them in the end
        C5                              Bb5
Measure time in leisure time and greed
            Ab5                          Bb5
And by the time we get to spend
           C5
A floating bed

A head of stone
         Bb5                               
A home plugged into every phone
        Ab5                                 
Kimono coral floral print
           Bb5
Exclusive tint and cut reclusive
          C5            
No it doesn?t come for free
             Bb5
But it?s the price
                     Ab5      Bb5
We pay for happiness


Brigde: F5 , Ab5 , C5 , Ab5

F5                 Ab5 
No don?t talk about more 
                  C5     Ab5
to life than this
F5                      
Dream a world maybe 
      Ab5       C5   Ab5
no one   owns

F5             Ab5
No don?t think about 
                   C5   Ab5
all the life we miss

F5                 Ab5
Swallow doubt as the hunger grows

F5                       Ab5
Make believe it?s like no one knows
F5              Ab5
Even if we turn more to most
       Ab5             Bb5
We'll never satisfy the hungry ghost

Interlude chords: C5 , Bb5 , Ab5 , Bb5 (x2)

Repeat chords: C5 , Bb5 , Ab5 , Bb5 through the verse

All the stuff we know we never want
Seems like we get it anyway
Safe to say it isn?t really wrong
Not when we know we only...
Throw it all away

Repeat chords: C5 , Bb5 , Ab5 , Bb5 through the verse

Yeah all of this we never know we want
it?s like we get it anyway
Safe to say it isn?t ever wrong
Better to get than to delay
A 3d screen
A cleaner fit
A bit pulled out of every hit
Addicted latest greatest piece
Design caprice and make the headline
No it doesn?t come for free
But it?s the price
We pay for happiness

Repeat the brigde chords: F5 , Ab5 , C5 , Ab5 through the verse

No don?t talk about more 
to life than this
Dream a world maybe 
no one owns
No don?t think about 
all the life we miss

F5                  Ab5
Swallow doubt as the hunger grows

F5                        Ab5
Make believe it?s like no one knows
F5               Ab5
Even if we turn more to most
       Ab5             Bb5
We'll never satisfy the hungry ghost

C5
And all of this
                      Bb5
We know we never need
                Ab5
Well it?s the price
                    Bb5
We pay for happiness
