Intro:

C G Am  F C Dm E7
Am  F C Dm G C


Verse 1:
          C           G     Am
Will the astonishment kill me
      F              C      Dm   E
Can I die from being blown aghast
          Am                            F   C
Somewhere out there a whale is swimmin. Hey!
           Dm             G       C
And when I find it I will know at last
          F
I seenthe silversmiths in baghdad and bosra
       Dm            G   E
I laid eyes on them alone
                   Am
I'm talking bout dimensions
                 F
I'm talkin bout ascending
   C/E          Dm              G           C
My soul's gonna know to come to me when i'm home


Verse 2:
C               G        Am
Trace me back a thousand mothers
      F              C   Dm  E7
Maybe time is just a magazine
             Am
I wanna tell all the things i know
      F               C/E
How a mind can really grow
                Dm      G    C
But then again, I ain't ever been
     F
Unconditional love has conditions, love
       Dm             G   E7
Ask anyone, they know best
               Am                 F
I thought that Jesus was for everyone
C/E          Dm           G        C    G
I picked the wrong flavor Christ I guess


Chorus:
    C
But don't we get by
C7
Don't we get by
F            Fm   C    G C G
Don't we get by alright?
Am           Em
Don't we get by
F            G    C
Don't we get by alright

Verse 2:
C                    G            Am
The skeletons of the living dead amongst us
          F                    C     Dm E7
Lived and laughed and loved so bitterly
           Am
They said "you had better hate
        F      C
All the people that I hate"
                 Dm       G
"you better wear the same skin
   C
As me"
          F
I've seen camels weave themselves through needles
          Dm                           G   E
I've seen angels avoid the eyes of the dead
      Am
Still blessed are the meek
    F             C/E
The geeks and the freaks
    Dm      G        C   G
Blessed are cursed instead


Chorus:
    C
But don't we get by
C7
Don't we get by
F            Fm   C    G
Don't we get by alright?
C            G
Don't we get by
Am           Em
Don't we get by
F            G    C
Don't we get by alright


Bridge:
          F
There are Mesopotamian visions
          Dm                         G     E
And then again, there are midwestern dreams
             Am
I built a trebuchet to jump the wall and see 'em
                F                  C/E
While they were quarrying the Colosseum
                    G      C G
I saw a copy of the facsimile


Chorus:
    C
But don't we get by
C7
Don't we get by
F            Fm   C    G
Don't we get by alright?
C            G
Don't we get by
Am           Em
Don't we get by
F            G    C
Don't we get by alright
