E5With a swerve, my eyes avert
My mF#5outh somehow D5forgets to work
E5So I stare until you shout
F#5Wondering why yoD5u can't figure me out
E5Ooh F#5  D5  
E5With a change, recall the names
I'm F#5spitting out wordsD5, hoping it works
E5Still I stare while they all shout
Why F#5can't I eD5ven figure it out?
COoh
BmThe time I'm C#sus4wasting
Gadd9Can't say where I'Dve beDmaj7en

Slowly spin beneath the day
Your time I'm wasC#sus4ting
Gadd9Can't say where weD've bDmaj7een
EmCause it seems to me that 
G*
Nothing's what it's ever meant to be
E5With my fate, my thoughts erase
My hF#5ead's a blur, D5the picture fades
E5Eyes, they keep on shutting down
I caF#5n't see why yD5ou won't figure me out
E5Ooh F#5  D5

With a twist
My mind has missed
You said that I'd forget

With a swerve, my eyes avert

F#5 D5

My mouth somehow forgets to work

So I stare until you shout

F#5 D5

Wondering why you can't figure me out

E5 F#5 D5

Ooh

With a change, recall the names

I'm spitting out words, hoping it works

Still I stare while they all shout

Why can't I even figure it out?

Ooh

Bm C#sus4

The time I'm wasting

Can't say where I've been

Catching my same old way

Slowly spin beneath the day

C#sus4

Your time I'm wasting

Gadd9 D Dmaj7

Can't say where we've been

Cause it seems to me that

Nothing's what it's ever meant to be

With my fate, my thoughts erase

F#5 D5

My head's a blur, the picture fades

Eyes, they keep on shutting down

F#5 D5

I can't see why you won't figure me out

E5 F#5 D5

Ooh

Bm C#sus4

The time I'm wasting

Catching my same old way

Slowly spin beneath the day

Your time I'm wasting

Gadd9 D Dmaj7

Can't say where we've been

Cause it seems to me that

Nothing's what it's ever meant to be

Why can't you figure me out?

With a twist

My mind has missed

You said that I'd forget

(From Bm to Dmaj7 hit the chord once and let it ring)

Can't say where I've been

Catching my same old way

Slowly spin beneath the day

Can't say where we've been

Cause it seems to me that

Nothing's what it's ever meant to be

Can't say where we've been

Cause it seems to me that
