[Verse]
D D/F# They say that these are not the best of times Em7 G | D D/F# | Em7 G | But they're the only times I've ever known D D/F# Em7 And I believe there is a time for meditation G | A E | A A#dim7 | In cathedrals of our own
[Bridge]
[ A#dim7 ] Bm/D A/C# G/B G G/F# Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lovers' eyes Esus4 E Asus4 A And I can only stand apart and sympathize G D/F# Em7 For we are always what our situations hand us A | G C | G | It's either sadness or euphoria

[Bridge]
[ A#dim7 ] Bm/D A/C# G/B G G/F# Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity Esus4 E Asus4 A A reason coexists with our insanity G D/F# Em7 And so we choose between reality and madness A | G C | G | It's either sadness or euphoria

Bm Asus4 G G G/F# How thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies Esus4 E Asus4 A Perhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies G D/F# Em7 And as we stand upon the ledges of our lives A | G C | G | With our respective similarities
(break) (breaks)
A [ D ] It's either sadness or euphoria
