[Verse]
DVoices that did comfort me
DAre furthest from my sanity
And Gcome from places I have never seen
BmEven in my darkest rEecollection
There waGs someone singin' my life back tDo me
[Verse]
DThe life you learn from someone else
DThat you can only trust yourself
SomGetimes that is still too much to want
BmGravity won't get you Ethrough the mazes
You can Gnever travel by the way you've Dcome
[Chorus]
DI could never choose the ones to love
DAnd the ones who took the credit left me reelin'
But I owe much to the D7nameless and Gall those surrogates
DThose who're singin' my liAfe back to mDe
D G Bm E G D
[Verse]
DLife is not a constant thing
DIt's only made of short stories
I cGouldn't even tell you where i'm from
BmGuided by the voices i've Edeflected
Guided by Gelectric wires' Dhum
[Chorus]
DI could never choose the ones to love
DAnd the ones who took the credit left me reelin'
But I owe much to the D7nameless and Gall those surrogates
DThose who're singin' my liAfe back to mDe
[Chorus]
DI see you in the future, skippin' time
DWhile the eyes of all the faithful rest in peace
Yet tonight I see the D7highway like a cGheetah underfoot
DAnd someone singin' my Alife back to Dme
DSomeone singin' my lAife back to GmeD

[Verse]

Voices that did comfort me

Are furthest from my sanity

And come from places I have never seen

Bm E

Even in my darkest recollection

G D

There was someone singin' my life back to me

[Verse]

The life you learn from someone else

That you can only trust yourself

Sometimes that is still too much to want

Bm E

Gravity won't get you through the mazes

G D

You can never travel by the way you've come

[Chorus]

I could never choose the ones to love

And the ones who took the credit left me reelin'

D7 G

But I owe much to the nameless and all those surrogates

D A D

Those who're singin' my life back to me

D G Bm E G D

[Verse]

Life is not a constant thing

It's only made of short stories

I couldn't even tell you where i'm from

Bm E

Guided by the voices i've deflected

G D

Guided by electric wires' hum

[Chorus]

I could never choose the ones to love

And the ones who took the credit left me reelin'

D7 G

But I owe much to the nameless and all those surrogates

D A D

Those who're singin' my life back to me

[Chorus]

I see you in the future, skippin' time

While the eyes of all the faithful rest in peace

D7 G

Yet tonight I see the highway like a cheetah underfoot

D A D

And someone singin' my life back to me

D A G D

Someone singin' my life back to me
