Where To Begin chords by Paradise Fears

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Novice

Intro:
Em           A              Bm
When we were younger we saw God's face in our fathers
         Em             A                 D
Now that all our heroes died, we're all alone


Verse 1:
D
Where to begin, the lights are fading
A
Songs are played out, legs are shaking
Em                                   G
Tired hands they reach for something more than they can see
           D
But waking up is hard to do
                A
When you've got nothing left to lose
               Em
And you've got nothing left to choose
           G
Except for cigarettes and booze, they tell you

Chorus:
 Em                           A
"Don't rely on other people's eyes to see your life"
                Bm
But we're still trying to break mirrors inside this
G
Fun house of denial and wondering
Em                            A
Where do we go next, do we go next

D C D

Verse 2:
D
Where to begin, the stakes are raising
A
Crowd's drawing close, my body's shaking
Em
Tired hands they reach for something
G                                    D
I've never been so sure that I can't do this anymore
         A                           Em
I forget what we do it for I guess I get a little bored
               G
With trying to spill my heart out on four chords


Chorus:
  Em                           A
I don't rely on other people's eyes to see my life
              Bm
But I'm still trying to break mirrors inside this
G
Fucking fun house of denial and wondering
Em                            A
Where do we go next, do we go next

D
Bm Em

Bridge:
Em                          A
It's not that I'm not happy with where I'm at
                      A
I just thought I'd be more than this
                       D
All these things on my bucket list, thought I'd be linguist
        C
But if I die right now what'll be left of me?
        C
So I'm stuck here writing my own eulogy
              C
But if it was you and me I could find some peace
             C
And the fact overreaction is just a way out of this for me


Hook:
G           A
La da da da da da da da
D           Bm
La da da da da da da da
G           A
La da da da da da da da
D           Bm
La da da da da da da da
