[Intro] 
C#m  B
[Verse 1]
C#mSingin' to you in the back of the van
I can't fBix it all but I'll hold your hand
Until the C#mheadlights crack and we drive 
head first
For the Bgraves in the yard of this New 
Jersey church
And the C#mclosest I've come to the feeling of knives
Is the Bpain that I feel from the thorns in your side
Because they C#mpoke right through your sweater
And rip the Bfabric that holds our illusions together
[Chorus]
And the aAntidote for aBll the things
That teAar us up from sBeam to seam
Is the sC#mpace between our eyes
BI never would have been here otherwise
And I Asuppose that with our bBroken wings
We'll hAave to learn to Buse our feet
And mC#maybe we will find Ba reason for our lives
Well I gAuess we'll have to tBry, won't we?
[Interlude]
C#m  B
[Verse 2]
C#mSingin' to you in the back of my car
The lBights flash red and the door's ajar
I could C#mtell you the truth but the truth is much worse
So I'll Btell you a lie and you'll never be hurt
And the C#mclosest I've come to the feeling of fine
Is the jBoy that I feel from your hands on my side 
Because they C#mpoke right through your sweater
And rip the fBabric that holds my delusions together
[Chorus]
And the Aantidote for aBll the things
That tAear us up from sBeam to seam
Is the sC#mpace between our eyes
BI never would have been here otherwise
And I sAuppose that with our brBoken wings
We'll Ahave to learn to uBse our feet
And C#mmaybe we will find Ba reason for our lives
Well I gAuess we'll have to tBry, won't we?

[Intro]

C#m B

[Verse 1]

C#m

Singin' to you in the back of the van

I can't fix it all but I'll hold your hand

C#m

Until the headlights crack and we drive

head first

For the graves in the yard of this New

Jersey church

C#m

And the closest I've come to the feeling of knives

Is the pain that I feel from the thorns in your side

C#m

Because they poke right through your sweater

And rip the fabric that holds our illusions together

[Chorus]

A B

And the antidote for all the things

A B

That tear us up from seam to seam

C#m

Is the space between our eyes

I never would have been here otherwise

A B

And I suppose that with our broken wings

A B

We'll have to learn to use our feet

C#m B

And maybe we will find a reason for our lives

A B

Well I guess we'll have to try, won't we?

[Interlude]

C#m B

[Verse 2]

C#m

Singin' to you in the back of my car

The lights flash red and the door's ajar

C#m

I could tell you the truth but the truth is much worse

So I'll tell you a lie and you'll never be hurt

C#m

And the closest I've come to the feeling of fine

Is the joy that I feel from your hands on my side

C#m

Because they poke right through your sweater

And rip the fabric that holds my delusions together

[Chorus]

A B

And the antidote for all the things

A B

That tear us up from seam to seam

C#m

Is the space between our eyes

I never would have been here otherwise

A B

And I suppose that with our broken wings

A B

We'll have to learn to use our feet

C#m B

And maybe we will find a reason for our lives

Well I guess we'll have to try, won't we?

We'll have to try, won't we?

C#m B

You should just let this go, but I can't

C#m

tell you so

C#m B

No I can't and I won't, no I can't and I won't

C#m B

You should just let this go, but I can't tell

you so

No I can't and I won't, no I can't and I won't
