 Chord diagramE minorEm             Chord diagramC majorC
 You're not unlucky, you're just not very smart
 Chord diagramG+G                       Chord diagramD MajorD
 These things will never leave you - they're as close as you can get
 Chord diagramE minorEm            Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramD MajorD
 To a blueprint for the future - but you can call it fate.
         Chord diagramE minorEm                Chord diagramC majorC
 It's like these days I have to write down almost every thought I've held,
   Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramD MajorD
 So scared I am becoming of forgetting how it felt,
  Chord diagramE minorEm                Chord diagramC majorC
 And these fears they will unravel me one day,
         Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramD MajorD
 But still I am afraid.

 Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramC majorC
 But I'm blessed -
     Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD
 Just to be, more or less -
 Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramD MajorD
 Standing in the afterglow of rapture with the words the rapture left
 Chord diagramE minorEm    Chord diagramC majorC
 Oh blessed -
     Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD
 Just to be, more or less -
 Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC                  Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramD MajorD
 Standing in the afterglow of rapture with the words the rapture left.


      Chord diagramE minorEm
 Now you're blessed amongst all women,
    Chord diagramC majorC
 Now a man who's very good,
   Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramD MajorD
 He tells you how you feel until your life is understood,
    Chord diagramE minorEm                 Chord diagramC majorC
 And he leads you through it arm in arm as though
               Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramD MajorD
 There was a map to guide the way.
      Chord diagramE minorEm                 Chord diagramC majorC
 Now you write because you love him, now you write because he's kind,
    Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramD MajorD
 You write so much, you look up and you wrote yourself behind,
      Chord diagramE minorEm             Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramD MajorD
 And you're standing in a labyrinth of paper and the map has been erased.

     Chord diagramE minorEm    Chord diagramC majorC
 But you're blessed -
     Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD
 Just to be, more or less -
 Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD
 Standing in the afterglow of rapture with the words the rapture left.
    Chord diagramE minorEm   Chord diagramC majorC
 Are you blessed?
     Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramD MajorD
 Just to be, more or less?
      Chord diagramE minorEm               Chord diagramC majorC                Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramD MajorD
 Now you're standing in the afterglow of rapture, but there is no rapture left.


instrumental part repeats Chord diagramE minorEm Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD


   Chord diagramE minorEm               Chord diagramC majorC
 Oh come, and we will celebrate the things that make us real,
    Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramD MajorD
 The things that break us open, and the things that make us feel
      Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC
 Like these accidental meetings up and partings of the way
           Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramD MajorD
 Are not so much our choice but in the blood of how we're made,
        Chord diagramE minorEm                Chord diagramC majorC
 It's like the way I have to write down almost everything I see,
       Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramD MajorD
 So that the record does obscure the thing the record used to be,
    Chord diagramE minorEm
 And I know I'm not unlucky,
    Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramD MajorD
 I was just born this way.
     Chord diagramE minorEm Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD
 But I'm blessed.


    Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC
 Now a paper forest grows up in the supermarket aisles,
   Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramD MajorD
 The baby born with teeth looks at its mother and it smiles,
     Chord diagramE minorEm
 And we all fall down
            Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD
 Like wind blows through the paper forest.
    Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC
 And a paper forest grows up in the supermarket aisles,
   Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramD MajorD
 The baby born with teeth looks at its mother and smiles,
     Chord diagramE minorEm
 And we all fall down
           Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD
 As wind blows through the paper forest.
    Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramC majorC
 And a paper forest grows up in the supermarket aisle
   Chord diagramG+G                   Chord diagramD MajorD
 Alarm clock fingers turn they're counting seconds like they're miles
      Chord diagramE minorEm               Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G
