Thanks to user ksk8er07 for the tabbed chords, these are those chords accompanied with lyrics. Solo and outro not included. [Intro] Am
              E7              D7/F#
Walked in the world, became a Catholic

      F   E         Am
Their oil and their guilt

             E7                      D7/F#
Somewhere in high school switched to atheist

     F     E        Am
Your anger and your will

              E7                  D7/F#
Turned twenty five freaked out by everything

    F      E     Am
The bodies piled up

             E7                     D7/F#
Fled to your mind when they stopped listening

    F     E
And said, enough's enough.

Dm                    G
What if it's all just jokes?

Dm               G
Casper, The Holy Ghost

E                     A           G      F/C      G
What if it's all just stones you get to throw?

                 F             G           C
And every single time that you opened your mouth

               F         E        Am
Someone else's lies came tumbling out

                F/C        G         C/G
Parading as the truth in a cap and a gown

            F              E           Am
A graduated curse that you cast to the ground
[Interlude] Am E7 D7/F# F E Am
               E7               D7/F#
To settle your debts you took a dozen steps

   F       E      Am
Or started on the path

             E7                  D7/F#
Kept falling off when faced with righteousness

    F        E        Am
You couldn't work the math

           E7                   D7/F#
God in the wood, the words, the coffee pot

   F      E      Am
It wasn't adding up

            E7                  D7/F#
At war with yourself, afraid of everyone

    F     E
You said, enoughs enough.

Dm                 G
How could you ever know?

Dm                   G
What if you said you don't?

E                        A          G      F/C    G
What if you cleared your throat and let it go?

                F             G           C
So every single time that you opened your mouth

                   F          E          Am
Something like the truth came struggling out

                 F/C       G              C
A picture of the past you keep whittling down

                F                  E      Am
To a version of yourself you could follow around
[Interlude] Am E7 D7/F# F/C E/B Am E7 D7/F# F/C E/B
   Dm   Dm7              G  G7
So what if the end just ends?

Dm      Dm7               G G7
It's worthless to worry, then

   E7                  A     G         F      G
To wrestle yourself to death again and again

                 F             G         C
Now every single time that you open your mouth

                F                   E          Am
Give yourself a breath while you're working it out

                F               G            C
The answer's in between all the concrete and clouds

                  F
It's anywhere you want

           E           Am
Yeah, it's next to you now?
