F G (4x)

[Verse]
F                                                    G
Many years before I kept track of the years I felt I would, look back
F                                                         G
Otherwise why did I write down everything that entered my mind? Check out these lines
F                                                    G
Like I'm Syd Barrett and I'll swim to England in his clothes, in 20 holes
F                                                          G
How could I say at what point I would gain perspective let alone know I had it?

[Pre-chorus]
C                                  G
Survival by the soundtrack made of our short lives
C                        Am
Making sense of hologram ecology
G                 Am
I'll be up crying listening to Grace
                                      C
And hiding in the pages adding up to me
C
Eternity
Am
'til I leave

F G (2x)

[Verse 2]
F                                                       G
It's like a topography that is made from cartography of me, all those feelings
F                                                 G
Every day the bus stop was the size of the entire world! The ball that broke your tooth
F                                                 G
And carving at me all the time was I had done you wrong, I hope I'm sorry
F                                                          G
Certain times in our lives come to take up more space than others, and time's gonna take it's time

[Pre-chorus]
C                          G
The Kennys said I broke in over the summer
C                          Am
It was the evening when he climbed that tree
G                        Am                                             C
I was afraid what he was doing inside so I followed him to stop a robbery
Am
Oohs

[Chorus]
D                     G
All along we're gonna feel some numbness
C        Am
Oxymoron of our lives
D              G
Getting fed up by that hunger
C            Am
Supersize we found inside
D                   G
They will know it's real, our numbness
C               Am
Catching up and climbing life
D               G
Speaking like a hug of thunder
C             Am                F
Lit up by the lights at dusk outside

G
Am

[Chorus]
D                     G
All along we're gonna feel some numbness
C        Am
Oxymoron of our lives
D              G
Getting fed up by that hunger
C            Am
Supersize we found inside
D                 G
They will know us by our numbers
C               Am
Catching up and climbing life
D               G
Speaking like a hug of thunder
C             Am                F    G   F   G
Lit up by the lights at dusk outside

F G                        F
    It was a military base across the street
G                                     F
    We watched them training while we lead
G                          F
    It was a military base across the street
G                                     F
    We watched them training while we lead
                                  
                                  G 
We watched them training while we lead
