[Intro] G Gsus2 C D Dsus2 D [Verse 1]
    G                  Gsus2              C       D Dsus2 D
I'm trying to tell you something about my life

      G               Gsus2               C       D Dsus2 D
Maybe give me insight between black and white

    Dsus2                           C
The best thing you've ever done for me

      Dsus2                           C                   G         Gsus2
Is to help me take my life less seriously, it's only life after all
[Verse 2]
     G              Gsus2            C         D Dsus2 D
Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable

     G              Gsus2               C      D Dsus2 D
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear

  Dsus2                         C
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket

  Dsus2                           C                             G
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it, I'm crawling on your shore
[Chorus]
      D                     C           G
And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains

  D                         C              G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains

        Dsus2                         C
There's more than one answer to these questions

                 G
Pointing me in a crooked line

        Dsus2                             C
And the less I seek my source for some definitive

         G           D    C
Closer I am to fine, yeah

         G           D    C
Closer I am to fine, yeah
[Verse 3]
  G               Gsus2        C         D Dsus2 D
I went to see the doctor of philosophy

       G            Gsus2       C                 D   Dsus2  D
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee

   Dsus2               C
He never did marry or see a B-grade movie

   Dsus2                      C
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me

        G          Gsus2                   C            D
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind, got my paper

          G
And I was free
[Chorus]
      D                     C           G
And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains

  D                         C              G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains

        Dsus2                         C
There's more than one answer to these questions

                 G
Pointing me in a crooked line

        Dsus2                             C
And the less I seek my source for some definitive

         G           D    C
Closer I am to fine, yeah

         G           D    C
Closer I am to fine, yeah
[Verse 4]
  G              Gsus2      C   D Dsus2 D
I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m

        G           Gsus2     C           D   Dsus2  D
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend

      Dsus2                           C
And I woke up with a headache like my head against a board

Dsus2                           C
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before

                       G
When I went in seeking clarity
[Chorus]
  D                     C           G
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains

  D                         C              G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain

   D                    C         G
We go to the doctor, we go to the mountains

   D                        C              G
We look to the children, we drink from the fountain

         D                   C              G
Yeah, we go to the Bible, we go through the workout

   D                          C                G
We read up on revival, and we stand up for the lookout

        Dsus2                         C
There's more than one answer to these questions

                 G
Pointing me in a crooked line

        Dsus2                             C
And the less I seek my source for some definitive

         G           D    C
Closer I am to fine, yeah

         G           D    C
Closer I am to fine, yeah

         G           D    C   D   G
Closer I am to fine, yeah
