    Approaching Normal

C5         A5 E5
Losing my control
               C5         A5  E5
Here it is the day I have to go

Just sit beside me
C5           A5   E5
I can't let this show
                   C5                 A5 E5
How sick I feel to leave you so alone
                   C5                    
God I'm terrified

G5                          C5
    We've lost respect for decency
               G5
When one could turn our world into an ant pile
G5                        C5
    We run circles, no direction do I see
             G5                         C5
The dust has blinded you, the dust has blinded me


C5                      G5
   I kissed her on the cheek and then I waved goodbye
C5                                 G5
    She had the saddest look I?ve seen in years - a kangaroo cry
C5                   G5                            C5
    A warm pathetic ocean flow we have to live by
                  G5
We have to live by
                   C5
Because we have to live


G5                      
    And you choose to break our families 
C5                                       F5
    Tell me you've used all precautions known

And I'll stand beside the ones who stood alone
G5                                           C5
    How long will we have to sing until you finally bring our sons, 
              F5
Our daughters home?

We'll let the prayers start healing, what time's been stealing

Interlude: C5 A5 E5 X2

C5                      A5 E5
  We only want to feel as close as we can be
C5                         A5       E5
  Use hands for holding on to your precious family
C5                         A5
  Just believe in all who shine

    E5
The light to help you see
             C5                  A5  E5
Cause if I believe in you, will you believe in me?


C5                      G5
   I kissed her on the cheek and then I waved goodbye
C5                                 G5
    She had the saddest look I?ve seen in years - a kangaroo cry
C5                   G5                            C5
    A warm pathetic ocean flow we have to live by
                  G5
We have to live by
                   C5
Because we have to live


G5                      
    And you choose to break our families 
C5                                       F5
    Tell me you've used all precautions known

And I'll stand beside the ones who stood alone
G5                                           C5
    How long will we have to sing until you finally bring our sons, 
              F5
Our daughters home?

We'll let the prayers start healing, what time's been stealing

Been stealing.
G5
  Keep hanging on
C5                  F5
  Keep hanging on
G5
  Keep hanging on
C5                  F5
  Keep hanging on

We'll let the prayers start healing, when time's been stealing
