Bm D A Bm F#m G
Learning theres nothing to gain from advice
Bm D A Bm F#m G
Hey doubt, come on around any time
D G A Bm F#m G
Anyhow mistakes are what lead you through life
Bm A G Bm (RIFF See below)
Down and out's only if you think up and in's right
Bm D A Bm F#m G
I've gone along with the sins that are versions of you
Bm D A Bm F#m G
But guidlines were all I had time to get through
D G A Bm F#m G
It's like reading of love that's gone wrong
Bm
If time was laid out like that
D A Bm (RIFF)
Everything would occur at once
A G Bm F#m
And all the laws were laid down twice
A G Bm F#m
And the clouds were doubled in the sky
A G Bm F#m
And being tall meant lacking height
A G Bm F#m G
And being wrong meant being right
Bm
You're perfect
D A Bm F#m G
You fit snuggly right in the lie
Bm D A Bm F#m G
One host is going to teach how to die
D
Lay down
G A Bm F#m G
The darkness tonight is so bright
Bm A G Bm (RIFF)
Reasons There's one for each time cars collide
A G Bm F#m
I hear that telling moments divide
A G Bm F#m
And the only important moments
A G Bm F#m
Are the in between times
A G Bm F#m
And being confused is an exercise
F#m G Bm
I'm missing your thoughts tonight
F#m A G Bm
But we reach out to what's out of our sight
F#m G Bm
I'm missing your thoughts tonight
F#m A G Bm
But we reach out to what's out of our sight
The riff can be played two ways depending what you feel is right: -
