(strum for intro)

[Verse 1]

A A/G# A/F# A/E D D/F# D D/F#

After all is said and done, I feel the same

E A D D/F# A

All that I hoped would change within me stayed

A A/G# A/F# A/E D D/F# D D/F#

Like a huddled moonlit exile on the shore

E A D D/F# A

Warming his hands a thousand years ago

[Verse 2]

A A/G# A/F# A/E D D/F# D D/F#

I walk with others in me yearning to get out

E A D D/F# A

Claw at my skin and gnash their teeth and shout

A A/G# A/F# A/E D D/F# D D/F#

One of them wants only to be someone you'd admire

E A D D/F# A

One would as soon just throw you in the fire

[Verse 3]

A A/G# A/F# A/E D D/F# D D/F#

After all is said and after all is done

E A D D/F# A

God only knows which of them I'll become
