My favorite song off the new record...
C Am C/G F
C Am Em F
COh Atlas could not DmunderCstand
The Amworld was so much Fsmaller than
CThe one he used to Dmhold Cbefore
But the Amweight it brought him Fto the floor
CAs you watched him struggle Dmto his Cfeet
You took Amphotos capturing his Fdefeat
And Cmessaged them to Dmall your Cfriends
And Amwe all laughed at Fhis expense
C Am C/G F
C Am Em F
COh come my love and Dmswim with Cme
Out Amin this vast BiFnary Sea
CZeros and ones patDmterns apCpear
They'll Amprove to all that Fwe were here
CFor if there is Dmno docuCment
We Amcannot build our Fmonument
CSo look into Dmthe lens Cand
I'll Ammake sure this moment Fnever dies
C Am C/G F
C Am Em F
C Am C/G F

COh Atlas could Dmnot stay enCgaged
Was Ammore distracted Fevery day
CYou slowly fell into DmdisCarray
Just Amtrying to think of Fsomething to say
CFor if there is Dmno docuCment
There Amcannot be a Fmonument
CSo lean in close Dmor lend Can ear
                          Am                 F   F(hold)
There's something brilliant bound to happen here
