No Capo
G  D  Em  C
  GI don't Dhave too much to sayEm  
  Except for a Cchange in whether
  GToday is the Dsame as yesterdayEm  
  Stuck in a Csophomore effort
 (there's Emso much CI don't Gknow)
  GDon’t know Dwhy we fear the chanEmge
  When we've Conly just begun
  GBecause with Dfear comes hope the saEmme
  And tomCorrow's gonna come
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
G  D  Em  C
  GAnd you Dfind you're holding oEmn
  To eveCrything you know
  GBut the stDrength to move beyonEmd
  Is foCund in letting go
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  CIt's like leaCrning how to dDrive on a cDrowded highway
  CWhether this Gdies or stays Dalive, I Gdid it my way
  EmI know that the adventure's Dgone
  It's the second time CI find that what is lCost is replaced by grace and I find
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
  There's Emso much CI don't Gknow
          Em      C       Em <-- end on Em
  There's so much I don't know

No Capo

G D Em C

G D Em

I don't have too much to say

Except for a change in whether

G D Em

Today is the same as yesterday

Stuck in a sophomore effort

Em C G

(there's so much I don't know)

G D Em

Don’t know why we fear the change

When we've only just begun

G D Em

Because with fear comes hope the same

And tomorrow's gonna come

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

G D Em C

G D Em

And you find you're holding on

To everything you know

G D Em

But the strength to move beyond

Is found in letting go

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

C C D D

It's like learning how to drive on a crowded highway

C G D G

Whether this dies or stays alive, I did it my way

Em D

I know that the adventure's gone

C C

It's the second time I find that what is lost is replaced by grace and I find

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C G

There's so much I don't know

Em C Em <-- end on Em

There's so much I don't know
