F#5            B5        G5           D5          G5            D5    
There comes a time when you swim or sink so I jumped in the drink
       G5          D5           A5     A5 A5 F#5
'Cause I couldn't make myself clear
        B5            G5       D5      G5             D5      
Maybe I wrote in an invisible ink oh I've tried to think
    G5          D5         A5    A5 A5 A5 A5
how I could've made it appear


      G5 A5   B5 A5  D5         D5    D5       D5           E5  A5 E5 A5
But another illustration is wasted cuz the results are the same 
        G5   A5 B5    A5     D5         D5       D5        D5        E5 
I feel like a ghost who's trying to move your hands over some Ouija board
       A5           G5     D5      D5 D5
in the hopes I can spell out my name


F#5                 B5    G5        D5          G5              D5      
But some take from magic at first glance is just sleight of hand
   G5            D5        A5    A5 A5 F#5
depending how much you believe
               B5        G5        D5         G5            D5     
Something gets lost when you translate it's hard to keep straight
    G5          D5    A5    A5 A5 A5 A5
perspective is everything


      G5    A5   B5    A5  D5              D5     D5    D5        E5  A5 E5 A5
And I know now which is which and what angle I oughta look at it from
      G5   A5 B5    A5   D5        D5   D5  D5                 E5
I suppose I should be happy to be misread better be that than some of the
A5            G5 D5      D5 D5
other things I have become

chorus:
    A5                  E5
But nobody wants to hear this tale

The plot is cliche - the jokes are stale 
                    G5        D5     A5
and maybe we've all heard it all before
           A5            E5
oh I could get specifis but

nobody needs a catalog
                 G5            D5        A5
when details are love I can't sell anymore


     G5      A5  B5  A5     D5          D5     D5    D5      E5  A5 E5 A5
And aside from that this chain of reaction baby is losing a link
            G5     A5    B5    A5     D5        D5      D5        D5 
Thought I'd hope you'd know that I tried to tell you and if you don't I could 
E5         A5          G5         D5  D5 D5
draw you a picture in invisible ink

[chorus]
A5 E5 A5 E5 G5 D5 A5 2x
Oh ohh
A5 E5 A5 E5 G5 D5 A5
