C
And I was in the corner

                    D
I was taking my medicine

And you were in the corner too

                                 C
But I didn't wanna share it with you

How are we ever gonna get any better

                             D
If we're always in the same room?

We read she pulled out the tendons And she set them on the river

                           C
Now we know that it isn't true

C
We are only ever

                              D
Little sparrows on a mountain side

When the wind came up And it blew away her footing

                       C
And it forced her into flight

So how are we ever gonna get any better

                         D
Under cover of the same night?

We read she pulled out the tendons And she set them on the river Now we know that isn't right [Bridge]

C   B        Am    C       B       Am
I'm going to buy a sharper set of knives

[Chorus]

Em            F#m     C
So whose side are you on?

           D                  Am
To set me loose like Clovis' sons

               C              D
Their mothers bed to lay them on

       Am          D
Whose side are you on?

[Verse]

C
Caught up in the eye of

                          D
Every storm that passes through

If history is beholden to

                         C
A very different kind of truth

Then how are we ever gonna get any better

                            D
If we're always in the same room?

We read she pulled out the tendons And she set them on the river Now we know that isn't true [Bridge]

C    B       Am    C      B      Am
I'm going to buy a keener set of lies

[Chorus]

Em             F#m     C
And whose side are you on?

          D                  Am
To set me loose like Clovis' sons

              C               D
Their mothers bed to lay them on

      Am           D
Whose side are you on?

[Middle 8]

    Em
And maybe there has always been

D
Something in the corner hiding

Am
The feeling as a child we had

D
There's something in between the air

Em
And even on the coldest night

D
I generate a heat inside me

Am
And even with the tendon's cut

D
There's something in the corner hiding

In between the air [Chorus]

Em             F#m     C
And whose side are you on?

          D                  Am
To set me loose like Clovis' sons

              C               D
Their mothers bed to lay them on

      Am           C
Whose side are you on?

      Am           C
Whose side are you on?

      Am           C
Whose side are you on?

[Outro]

C
I was in the corner

                    D
I was taking my medicine

And you were in the corner too

                                  C
But I didn't wanna share it with you
