[Intro]
Am
Walked in the E7world, became a D7/F#Catholic
Their Foil Eand their Amguilt
Somewhere in E7high school switched to D7/F#atheist
Your Fanger Eand your Amwill
Turned twenty E7five freaked out by D7/F#everything
The Fbodies Epiled Amup
Fled to your E7mind when they stopped D7/F#listening
And Fsaid, Eenough's enough.
DmWhat if it's all just Gjokes?
DmCasper, The Holy GGhost
EWhat if it's all just Astones you gGet to tF/Chrow?G  
And every single Ftime that you Gopened your Cmouth
Someone else's Flies came Etumbling Amout
Parading as the F/Ctruth in a Gcap and a C/Ggown
A graduated Fcurse that you Ecast to the Amground
[Interlude]
Am E7  D7/F# F E Am
To settle your E7debts you took a D7/F#dozen steps
Or Fstarted Eon the Ampath
Kept falling E7off when faced with D7/F#righteousness
You Fcouldn't Ework the Ammath
God in the E7wood, the words, the D7/F#coffee pot
It Fwasn't Eadding Amup
At war with E7yourself, afraid of D7/F#everyone
You Fsaid, Eenoughs enough.
DmHow could you ever Gknow?
DmWhat if you said you Gdon't?
EWhat if you cleared your Athroat and Glet it F/Cgo?G  
So every single Ftime that you Gopened your Cmouth
Something like the Ftruth came Estruggling Amout
A picture of the F/Cpast you kGeep whittling dCown
To a version of Fyourself you could Efollow Amaround
[Interlude]
Am E7  D7/F# F/C E/B
Am E7  D7/F# F/C E/B
So Dmwhat Dm7if the end just eGndsG7?
DmIt's worDm7thless to worry, tGheG7n
To E7wrestle yourself to Adeath Gagain and FagainG  
Now every single Ftime that you Gopen your Cmouth
Give yourself a Fbreath while you're Eworking it Amout
The answer's in Fbetween all the Gconcrete and Cclouds
It's anywhere you Fwant
Yeah, it's Enext to you Amnow?
