Verse 1:

            Dmaj7
This is the clock upon the wall
            Dmaj7
This is the story of us all
            Bm
This is the first sound of a newborn child,
G
Before he starts to crawl
            Dmaj7
This is the war that's never won
          Dmaj7
This is a soldier and his gun
            Bm
This is the mother waiting by the phone,
G
Praying for her son

[Chorus]

            D                A
Pictures of you, pictures of me
               Bm                    G
Hung upon your wall for the world to see
            D                A
Pictures of you, pictures of me
          Bm                     G
Remind us all of what we used to be

Verse 2:

           Dmaj7
There is a drug that cures it all
               Dmaj7
Blocked by the governmental wall
           Bm
We are the scientists inside the lab,
     G
Just waiting for the call
     Dmaj7                  Dmaj7            Bm
This earthquake weather has got me shaking inside
                G
I'm high up and dry

[Chorus]

   Em      Bm  A            G
Confess to me, every secret moment
             D           A
Every stolen promise you believed
   Em      Bm  A               G
Confess to me, all that lies between us
                D             A
All that lies between you and me

Verse 3:

           Dmaj7
We are the boxers in the ring
           Dmaj7
We are the bells that never sing
           Bm                    
There is a title we can't win no matter
   G
How hard we might swing

[Chorus]

[Chorus Repeat]
