Capo IV (* = One strum)


[Intro]

Am7* | Dm7* | G7* | C* | 
Am7* | Dm7* | G7* | C C/B Am7 |
Am7 | Dm7 | G7 | C C/B 


[Verse 1]

Am7
I hear this old story before
          Dm7
Where the people keep killing for the metaphors
G7                           C    C/B
Don't leave much up to the imagination,
     Am7
So I, wanna give this imagery back
Dm7                     
But I know it just ain't so easy like that
G7                                     C
So, I turn the page and read the story again
     C/B       F
And again and again


[Pre-Chorus]

                            Dm
It sure seems the same, but with a different name
      G7
We're breaking and rebuilding
          G7
And we're growing, Always guessing, 


[Chorus]

      Am7  Dm7 
Never knowing
G7                 C
Shocking but we're nothing
           Am7 Dm7
We're just moments
      G7               C
We're clever but we're clueless
            Am7 Dm7       
We're just human
G7          C        
Amusing but confusing
       Am7 Dm7  G7                C    
Were trying but where is this all leading
      Am7
Never Know

Am7* | Dm7* | G7* | C* |


[Verse 2]

                       Am7
It all happened so much faster than you could say disaster
      Dm7
Wanna take a time lapse and look at it backwards
         G7                                C 
From the last word and maybe thats just the answer
           C/B
That we're after
          Am7
But after all we're just a bubble in a boiling pot
     Dm7                     
Just one breath in a chain of thought
    G7                           C                 C/B         F
The moments just combusting Feel certain but we'll never never know


[Pre-Chorus]

                     Dm
Just seems the same, give it a different name
      G7
We're beggin’ and we're needing
          G7
And we're trying and we're breathing


[Chorus]

      Am7  Dm7 
Never knowing
G7                 C
Shocking but we're nothing
           Am7 Dm7
We're just moments
      G7               C
We're clever but we're clueless
            Am7 Dm7       
We're just human
G7          C        
Amusing but confusing
       Am7 Dm7  G7                 C    
Were Helping, rebuilding and we’re growing
C/B   Am7
Never Know


[Instrumental]

Am7*  Dm7*  G7*  C*


[Verse 3]

Am7*
Knock knock on the door to door
Dm7*
Tell you that the metaphor is better than yours
    G7*
And you can either sink or swim
C *                
Things are looking pretty grim
   Am7                                Dm7
If you don't believe in what this one feeding
           G7
Its got no feeling
             C
So I read it again
    C/B       F
And again and again


[Pre-Chorus]

F              
Just seems the same
Dm
Too many different names
    G7
Our hearts are strong our heads are weak
      G7                
We'll always be competing 


[Chorus]

      Am7  Dm7 
Never knowing
G7                 C
Shocking but we're nothing
           Am7 Dm7
We're just moments
      G7               C
We're clever but we're clueless
           Am7 Dm7       
We're just human
G7          C       
Amusing but confusing
          Am7 Dm7  
But the truth is 
G7            C
All we got is questions 
            Am7*
we’ll never know
      Dm7*
Never know
      G7*
Never Know
      C*
Never Know


[Outro]

Am7* | Dm7* | G7* | C* | Am7*
