Bm               A               D           G
I don't like the world quite the way that it is
           Bm     A              D               G
So I keep talking about all the things you won't fix
Bm     A           D           G
 I'm impatient, a rock in the mud
         Bm           A              D           G
Truth is change isn't change til the changing is done

Chorus:
              G
I don't wanna make you mad
              A
I don't wanna make you mean
              D
I don't wanna pull you down
              G
I don't wanna cause a scene
             G
I just wanna know right now
            A
Is it all a big machine
            D
Are we in a crowded hell
                G
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme


Instrumental:
Bm A D G

Verse 2:
         Bm              A           D          G
All those questions have answers that no one can find
       Bm          A       D               G
Always gatekeeping gospels until the right time
     Bm           A          D          G
So I sit in your silence, my senses all stoned
        Bm           A              D         G
Is your truth really truth once the damage is done


Chorus:
              G
I don't wanna make you mad
              A
I don't wanna make you mean
              D
I don't wanna pull you down
              G
I don't wanna cause a scene
             G
I just wanna know right now
            A
Is it all a big machine
            D
Are we in a crowded hell
                G
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme


Bridge:
     G               A                D     G
It's not the world I thought I knew at 17 or 22
  G                A
I spilt my beer, I lost my purpose
D               G
Cleaning up was never worth it
G                 A
Part the seas and call a truce
     D               G
It's hurting me, I'm hurting you
G                 A
Looking down, you talk in cursive
D              G
You know me, I never learned it


Outro:
              G
I don't wanna make you mad
              A
I don't wanna make you mean
              D
I don't wanna pull you down
              G
I don't wanna cause a scene
             G
I just wanna know right now
            A
Is it all a big machine
            D
Are we in a crowded hell
                G
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme
              G
I don't wanna make you mad
              A
I don't wanna make you mean
              D
I don't wanna pull you down
              G
I don't wanna cause a scene
             G
I just wanna know right now
            A
Is it all a big machine
            D
Are we in a crowded hell
                G
Is heaven all a brilliant scheme
