Chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
Dm
A calm and cooling motion
Bb F
It's shaking off my tension
Dm
Surprise, surprise
Bb F
It's called being alive
Dm
The answers to my questions
Bb F
Repeating; Have I mentioned
Dm Am C F
I lied? Don't like the way I'm being tried
Pre-Chorus:
Gm C A Dm
A lonely heart is what I'm slowly aiming for
Bb F
Forget what you see; leave it to me
Fm A
I'll lead you there
Chorus:
Dm
It's not about the money
Bb F
But the world doesn't agree
Dm Am
A bribe, a lie, a trick
Bb
We'll hide the truth
F
And they won't see
Dm
As long as you have changed your mind
Bb F
Your soul belongs to me
Dm
We have got no pride
Bb C F
And no honor to be seen
Interlude:
Dm Bb F (3x)
Dm Am Bb F
Verse 2:
Dm
"A little; just a little"
Bb F
A lie or just a riddle?
Dm Am
Appeal, I feel
Bb F
But only if it's real
Dm Am
"It works in this direction;
Bb F
Let's take another exit"
Dm
You cheat, I see
Am C F
You're not the one for me
Pre-Chorus:
Gm C
The happiness of people
A Dm
Is such a fickle thing
Bb
To bend and break
F
The give and take
G A
Is too much for me
Chorus:
Dm
Love is just the gum
Bb F
That we replace without a care
Dm Am
Had your heart forever
Bb F
Now another day is here
Dm
The puzzle pieces
Am Bb F
Of our life will rarely make a fit
Dm
But we take our chances
Bb C F
And go along with it
Bridge:
C
The pouring rain fills up your brain
F
Again…
C F
It takes so much to weigh down your regrets
Gm A Dm D
This life is drifting on the open sea…
Gm E A
This boat is not enough for you and me…
Interlude:
Dm Bb F
Dm Am Bb F (3x)
Verse 3:
Dm Am Bb F
Building up your fences to avoid the best you can
Dm Am Bb F
All the laws and morals understood by fellow man
Dm Am Bb F
If I could be on the other side then I would be
Dm Am C F
"Oh, hello!" I'd say, but you'd never look at me
Verse 4:
Ebm B Gb
If you ever bother asking me if love is really true
Ebm Bbm Db Gb
I would stare you in the face and say it's looking right at you
Ebm Bbm B Gb
If I really understood you better than you know yourself
Ebm Db Bbm Gb
Then I know I'm perfect for you and nobody else
