D
There is a long forgotten voice,
Bm
I know it's not your voice,
A
because it's always strained,
DBm
I wake up hearing unfamiliar voices,
A
convinced they're trying to explain,
D
that if my words were clearer,
BmA
then maybe I would know what I'm trying to say,
D
just as those long forgotten voices,
BmA
disappear back into rain,
Bridge
ED
If I was born the same day that you die,
A
should that make me try,
ED
I was born the same day that you die,
A
should that make me feel more alive,
Chorus
AE
Not just sometimes but always,
DA
I know what I know,
AE
I know what I know,
DA
I know what I know,
Verse 2
D
I tune the radio,
BmA
to drown out these voices I don't know,
D
and suddenly an empty house,
BmA
it almost fills up with hope,
D
there are days and nights when,
BmA
I don't need to close my eyes,
D
and they feel as real to me,
BmA
like an elegy in the skies,
Bridge
ED
If I was born the same day that you die,
A
should that make me try,
ED
I was born the same day that you die,
A
should that make me feel more alive,
Chorus
AE
Not just sometimes but always,
DA
I know what I know,
AE
I know what I know,
DA
I know what I know,
AE
Not just sometimes but always,
DA
I know what I know,
AE
I know what I know,
DA
I know what I know,
