verse   You search your mind
That's what it's there for
                        A
        Check all the whys'

                      E
        And all the wherefores'
In your mind You're tall and brave
         B
        Riding the crest

              A                  E
        Of a high and beautiful wave

       E
chorus  You make your movements known

              D                A
        And where you want to be

       E
        And everybody knows

                D               A
        That's how it's got to be

       E         D        A       E
        In the sheltered morning sun

                 D        A       E
        In the sheltered morning sun

                 E
verse   Internally
You make your own rules
                       A
        You'll have excuses

                       E
        The ones that you choose
In the end You deem unsafe;
         B

inter   There comes a time

             D                      G
        You don't even know what's missing

              C                 D          E
        Some sugar to make the pill go down

                    Em  Am
        You need a line

           D                   G
        A push in the right direction

             C                    D          E
        The sugar that makes the pill go down

          E
verse   True
True to form
                  A           E
        True to pre-existing norms
Truly wasted At a rave
