   So much style without substance
D   Em       G
   So much stuff without style
D        Em           G
   It's hard to recognize the real thing
D      Em         G                 D    Em    G
   It comes along once in a while

   Like a rare and precious metal

You sometimes have to listen to

A lot of useless talk

D    Em
      Shapes and forms
D    Em                  D
      Against the norm


Chorus:

 Against the run of the mill

 Swimming against the stream

Verse 2:
D   Em      G              D      Em        G
   So much poison in power, the principles get left out
D   Em      G                 D      Em            G           D    Em    G
   So much mind on the matter, the spirit gets forgotten about
D          Em             G       A
   Like a righteous inspiration,
D       Em           G     A
   Overlooked in haste
D          Em             G        A
   Like a teardrop in the ocean,
   D      Em      G     A
A diamond in the waste
 D          Em         G       A
Some world-views are spacious
     D        Em               D
And some are merely spaced


Chorus:
Em
 Against the run of the mill
D
 Static as it seems
A                                       Bm                   D
 We break the surface tension with our wild kinetic dreams
Em                D
 Curves and lines
Em
 Of grand designs
Em
 Against the run of the mill
D
 Swimming against the stream
A                             Bm
 Life in two dimensions is a mass production scheme

Em
 Against the run of the mill

 We break the surface tension with our wild kinetic dreams
