[Intro] C#m F# E B F#7/A# C#m F# E B F#7 C#m [Verse 1]
C#m                                                          F#
Wizard, do you think you can remember what I did with my old mind?

                                               E
You look around and you say, "Brother, give it time"

                                              B  F#7  C#m
You look around and you say, "Wait a second, wait"

C#m                                                         F#
But right above my clavicle, the world becomes so laughably old

                                             E
It’s like I’ve been here for a decade on my own

                                           B F#7 C#m
You said, "It’s been a decade," and I had enough

C#m                                   F#
And beaches strewn with pulpits and ohms

                                            E
Where the cross is like a spark among your loam

                                      B  F#7          C#m
I believe there is a wall a line of stone by the river

C#m                                                   F#
And though we share a tongue we can’t recount it into words

                                        E
You cannot spill a vault entirely into verbs

                                      B   F#7   C#m
I never meant to make you live it all again
[Chorus]
C#m                             G#m7
I'm thinking 'bout the relative ways

      F#
That all I do is age

       G                             F#m                        E      C#m
And buried there's a version of me hurting and I’m letting him down, ooo

C#m                      G#m7
I wanna go, I wanna go home

    F#
I can’t let this one go

      G                                F#m                           E      C#m
I'm thinking 'bout my problems and the way that they will never be solved, hey
[Verse 2]
C#m                                                        F#
Wizard, I've been following a colour but you had to spit it out

                                     E
You said, "I never have a fear or a doubt"

                                           B   F#7  C#m
My world is smaller now but everything is near

C#m                                                          F#
And maybe we could rub off every bit of us and store it in a tank

                                        E
I whisper, "How much will they pay at BioBank?"

                                       B    F#7   C#m
You sighing tissue from the youth of yesteryear

C#m                                 F#
And bludgeons flailing arcs form a queue

                                 E
I’m a coward, I’m a devil, I’m a fool

                                      B     F#7         C#m
But I never understand the weight of all, all life decisions

C#m                                                                F#
Wizard, I been thinking 'bout the magic that you said would here prevail

                                        E
And I felt it when they left you and I failed

                                   B   F#7  C#m
And yes, I wanna be there when you die
[Chorus]
C#m                            G#m7
I’m breathing for the moment alone

    F#
My early self unknown

     G                              F#m                     E          C#m
The silences that follow you won’t always be the hollow I filled, hey

C#m                              G#m7
It’s easily the best thing I’ve done

    F#
So why the empty numb?

     G                                  F#m                            E     C#m
I’m thinking ‘bout my problems and the way that they will never be solved, hey

C#m                              G#m7
I'm thinking 'bout the relative ways

    F#
And all I do is age

    G                           F#m                          E
Buried there's a version of me hurting and I’m letting him down

E                          C#m
Hey, I'm in descent, hey

                        G#m7
I wanna go, I wanna go home

   F#
I can’t let this one go

      G                                F#m                            E
I'm thinking 'bout my problems and the way that they will never be solved, hey, hey

       G                               F#m                             E
I'm thinking 'bout my problems and the way that they will never be solved, no, solved
[Outro]
       G                                F#m                                 E
I’m thinking ‘bout my problems and the way that they will never be solved, hey, hey

      G                            F#m                          E
I think about my problems and the way that they will never be solved, solved, no solved
