E                     Bm    D                  A
I was looking for the answer as in some fairy tale 

E                       Bm      D                              A
Somebody said there's a man here and all his life he has just failed

E                        Bm    D              A
You only learn from the losers, of this I am sure

E                        Bm
And as I walked down his old street 

             D                           A
I heard him talking as he walked in the door

G   G/B   G        G/B      D       E9sus4   D/F#    Dadd4   D   
How do I know that I'm not dreaming, 

G   G/B   G        G/B      D       E9sus4   D/F# 
how do I know this is for real

            A                    Bm
Or that my destiny has not been writen 

             A                Bm A G             Bm A G  
And that my fate has not been sealed, . . . been sealed

E                         Bm                D                      A
I said my life is like a straight line, but no that's not true at all

E                           Bm                D                 A
It's more like a series of accidents and into each situation I fall

E                        Bm                 D                  A
Man I get some tired of thinking I'm like a dog whose watching TV

E                           Bm
'Cause I know something is happening 

       D                             A
But I don't know what's happening to me

G    G/B G          G/B      D       E9sus4   D/F#    Dadd4   D       
Take one thing that you are sure of, 

D       D   G   G/B       G            G/B    D  E9sus4  D/F#  Dadd4 D  
You can be sure that one thing will be taken away

                 A                     Bm 
Everything's on loan here there are no owners

                A          Bm A G            Bm A G  
It all came to pass not to stay . . . not to stay

G   G/B   G    G/B              D       E9sus4   D/F#    Dadd4   D   
Try to accept that you'll keep searching 

D           G    G/B      G      G/B           D    E9sus4   D/F# 
That's the thing you will do for most of your life

             A                      Bm
And all the answers they just don't exist here 

               A                          Bm A G               Bm A G  
Here lies the question and they rule your life . . . rule your life
