[Intro]
Dm  F  Bb  A
Dm  F  Bb  G
[Verse 1]
If you say this is pDmopF  
To be singing to a tBbune with a rhythm like tDmhis
Would it be so unDmpopularF  
For a singer like Bbme to be bringing up the fGact
That we're all gonna gDmoF  
Some people swBbear, they say they know whDmere
For me it's a DmmysteryF  
But which ever way you sBbee it you have to admGit it and lGive it and lGive GitG  G

[Verse 2]
Blew up my DmTVF  
It was numbing my brBbain to be thinking the sDmame

All feeling afrBbaid of the same tGhing
But there's Dmnothing to lFose
Cause we're all on a Bbbike and we're cycling tDmhrough
Getting off on our DminjuriesF  
But you gotta get bBback on it and liGve it and lGive it to lGove it and lGive and lGove lGife
