Chords with lyrics

capo 3rd

Intro:  Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramFF Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramFF


Verse 1:

Chord diagramC majorC                  Chord diagramC7C7
Saturday morning a while before daylight I’m
Chord diagramFF                     Chord diagramC majorC
Lying here hoping for rain
     Chord diagramG minorGm    Chord diagramFF           Chord diagramC majorC
By tomorrow I could be anywhere
Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramG minorGm
Passing streetcars alive without breathing
    Chord diagramFF                  Chord diagramC majorC
I’m lost in the city again
          Chord diagramBb majorBb     Chord diagramFF                Chord diagramC majorC
Without a purpose I can’t believe anything
Pre-Chorus:

                Chord diagramFF      Chord diagramA minorAm
And I know it’s not my place
      Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramC majorC
To be asking these questions
      Chord diagramFF          Chord diagramC majorC
but I can’t just chase
      Chord diagramBb majorBb           Chord diagramFF
every world that I see because


Chorus:

Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramFF
This isn’t real life
Chord diagramC majorC    Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramE minorEm       Chord diagramA minorAm
This isn’t happening
         Chord diagramDmDm        Chord diagramA minorAm
Seems so believable
Chord diagramG+G                     Chord diagramC majorC
But it’s not the real thing
          Chord diagramFF         Chord diagramC majorC
This isn’t real life
     Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramA minorAm
It’s just some enormous lie
   Chord diagramDmDm              Chord diagramFF               Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramC majorC
And I know I’ll be fine this isn’t real life
Verse 2:  (see above chords)

Such a mystery
Chord diagramA minorAm I supposed to believe these illusions are real
Out of focus, step out of character
Into a world I can feel
Maybe it’s only a sense of propriety
Keeping us grounded at all
Or we’d run screaming
Into the morning and out of control


Pre-Chorus 2:

Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramFF               Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramG+G
Maybe I can find some piece of a world I can handle
Chord diagramE minorEm   Chord diagramFF           Chord diagramG+G
Or a common line, any one sign
Chord diagramE7E7            Chord diagramA augmentedA
All a part of me


Chorus 2:

Chord diagramA augmentedA          Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
This isn’t real life
Chord diagramE MajorE              Chord diagramC#m9C#m9
This isn’t happening
          Chord diagramF# minorF#m      Chord diagramB minorBm
Seems so believable
    Chord diagramF# minorF#m          Chord diagramE MajorE    Chord diagramA augmentedA
But it’s not the real thing
           Chord diagramDmDm      Chord diagramA augmentedA
This isn’t real life
     Chord diagramE MajorE                Chord diagramC#m9C#m9
It’s just an enormous lie
    Chord diagramF# minorF#m      Chord diagramB minorBm      Chord diagramD MajorD             Chord diagramE MajorE
And we’ll be fine if we can find a real life

Verse 1:

Chord diagramBB
Listen
    Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramBB
The world is listening in
      Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramF#F#
Every name and number
Chord diagramBB          Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramBB
Suddenly I can’t believe my eyes
            Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA augmentedA   Chord diagramF#F# Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramA augmentedA Chord diagramF#F# Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramA augmentedA
We’re gonna need those alibis
Chord diagramBB         Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramBB
Hoping it all just fades away
              Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramF#F#
Maybe they’re all just paper
Chord diagramBB            Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramC majorC     Chord diagramBB
Airplanes and imaginary cries
        Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA7A7
They’re not your neighbour


Chorus:

Chord diagramD MajorD                Chord diagramG+G
We all have our alibis
Chord diagramD MajorD                             Chord diagramG+G
We’ve got our reasons and our reasonable words
       Chord diagramA augmentedA                               Chord diagramG+G
But we all just hide our eyes and make believe we never heard
   Chord diagramF# minorF#m
And when the sirens rise
     Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramA augmentedA
We’re gonna need those alibis

Vs. 2

Chord diagramBB            Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramBB
Helpless and hopeless on the screen
        Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramF#F#
Maybe another channel
Chord diagramBB                Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramC majorC
Might change the dialogue
   Chord diagramBB             Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramA7A7
To talk about it doesn’t hurt at all


Chorus:

Chord diagramD MajorD               Chord diagramG+G
We all have our alibis
 Chord diagramD MajorD                           Chord diagramG+G
We’ve got our reasons and our reasonable words
   Chord diagramA augmentedA                                      Chord diagramG+G
We talk and talk as though there’s nothing to it
Chord diagramF# minorF#m
We can change it all
   Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramA7A7
As long as we don’t have to do it
Chord diagramD MajorD               Chord diagramG+G
We all have our alibis
Chord diagramD MajorD
We’ve got our reasons and we
Chord diagramG+G
Lie and lie and lie
Chord diagramD MajorD               Chord diagramG+G
We all have our alibis
Chord diagramD MajorD
We’ve got our reasons
Chord diagramG+G
We’ve got our reasons

             Chord diagramA augmentedA             Chord diagramG+G
And if we’re not afraid to fall
          Chord diagramA augmentedA            Chord diagramG+G
We’re not listening at all
    Chord diagramF# minorF#m
And when the silence fills the sky
      Chord diagramG+G                Chord diagramA7A7
We're gonna need those alibis


Outro:  Chord diagramD MajorD
What does it matter if they're all lies
