Verse:
Am
If you’re just asking for a reason
                            F
Reasons are everywhere you look
G                       Em
The only difference between them
Am                               F
Are which you gave and which you took


Verse:
Am
Every smile with some dark anticipation
                                              F
And dreams of back before it settled in their brows
G                                      Em
I don’t remember when I first began to notice
Am                          F      Main Riff:
But I can’t think about it now
                                   Main Riff:
I can’t think about it now


Verse:
Am
The latest singer’s latest single’s got me listening
                                          F
For the pact between the writer and the star
G                          Em
This is how mythology is written
Am                                 F
This is where the lawless jungles are


Verse:
Am
She’s just a singer living mostly after midnight
                                      F
Pumping blood and money back into a town
G                         Em
And it all eventually betrays her
Am                           F       Main Riff:
But I can’t think about it now
                               Main Riff:
I can’t think about it now


Verse:
Am
So I guess it makes me wonder what I’m chasing
                                           F
Like a dancer when she’s breaking in her shoes
G                                             Em
Like sending men up to the moon just for the landing
Am                                          F
Displaying power we don’t know how else to use


Verse:
Am
Sometimes it’s more than I could handle
                                  F
Sometimes it’s all the joy I’ve found
G                                         Em
And it’ll all end up on one side or the other
Am                            F
But I can’t think about it now

Verse:
N.C.
The decades that are hidden in the sidewalks
N.C.
The narrative that naturally occurs
N.C.
The everlasting wisdom of a sports bar
N.C.
The poison that’s mistaken for a cure


Verse:
N.C.
All these backward glances putting me in danger
N.C.
Of forgetting how to turn myself around
N.C.
It’s just that time just keeps on slipping through my fingers
N.C.                                Main Riff:
But I can’t think about it now

I can’t think about it now
                                    Main Riff:
I can’t think about it now
                                    Main Riff:
I can’t think about it now
