🎸 Verse 1:
    G                  G/Cm               Fadd9
I'm tryin' to tell you somethin' about my life
      G               G/Cm              Fadd9
Maybe give me insight between black and white
        G/Cm                              Fadd9
And the best thing you've ever done for me
      G/Cm                               Fadd9
Is to help me take my life less seriously
N.C.                 G   G/Cm     Fadd9
It's only life after all
yeah
                     G   G/Cm  Fadd9
It's only life after all

🎸 Verse 2:
     G              G/Cm            Fadd9
Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
    G               G/Cm                Fadd9
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
  G/Cm                             Fadd9
I wrapped my fear around me like a blanket
  G/Cm                            Fadd9
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
                     G      G/Cm  Fadd9
I'm crawling on your shore, yeah

🎸 Chorus:
  G/Cm                  Fadd9       G
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
  G/Cm                      Fadd9          G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
        G             G/Cm                     Fadd9
There's more than one answer to these questions
                 G            G/Cm  Fadd9
Pointing me in a crooked line
                       G/C                                Fadd9
(9/9/23 Bran:) And the less I seek my source for some definitive
(9/9/23 Cath:) And the less     I     seek       my       source
             G          G/Cm  Fadd9
The closer I Am to fine
             G          G/Cm  Fadd9
The closer I Am to fine

🎸 Verse 3:
  G               G/Cm         Fadd9
I went to see the doctor of philosophy
       G            G/Cm        Fadd9             G/Cm
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
   G/Cm               Fadd9         G
He never did marry or see a B-grade movie
   G/Cm                      Fadd9             G
He graded my performance; he said he could see through me
        G                    G/Cm              Fadd9
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
       Fadd9           G     G/Cm  Fadd9
Got my paper and I was   free

🎸 Chorus:
  G/Cm                  Fadd9       G
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
  G/Cm                      Fadd9          G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
        G             G/Cm                Fadd9
There's more than one answer to these questions
                 G             G/Cm  Fadd9
Pointing me in a crooked line
                     G/C                                Fadd9
(Brandi:)    And the less I seek my source for some definitive
(Catherine:) And the less     I     seek       my       source
                          G          G/Cm  Fadd9
(Both:)      The closer I Am to fine

🎸 Verse 4:
  G              G/Cm           Fadd9
I stopped by the bar at three A.M.
        G           G/Cm      Fadd9
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
      G/Cm                            Fadd9
And I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
G/Cm                                    Fadd9
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
                  G        G/Cm  Fadd9
I went in seeking clarity

🎸 Chorus:
  G/Cm                  Fadd9       G
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
  G/Cm                      Fadd9          G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
         G/Cm                Fadd9          G
Yeah, we Go to the bible, we Go through the workout
   G/Cm                      Fadd9            G
We read up on revival and we stand up for the lookout
        G             G/Cm            Fadd9
There's more than one answer to these questions
                 G             G/Cm  Fadd9
Pointing me in a crooked line
        G/C                              Fadd9
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
             G          G/Cm  Fadd9
