[Verse 1]

 Am
You hear us come and go, we know

    C                   D             Am
You wonder if we're not alone, we're alone

 Am
You think about us all the time, don't

        C                           D
Because it doesn't matter why we're known

Am                 N.C       Am
We're just known, we're just known

[Verse 2]

Am
You wanna read our minds, we know

C                          D     Am
Is it better on the other side? No

 Am
Will it help you sleep at night? It won't

 C                              D
And it doesn't matter why we're known

            Am
We're just known

It doesn't matter why we're known

C                           D                 Am
It doesn't matter why we're known, we're just known

[Verse 3]

 Am
Should you stay or go? Go

 C                           D      C
Feeling like you're on your own, oh no

Am
Will we ever leave you alone? No

 C                               D
And it doesn't matter why we're known

 C                               D                 Am
And it doesn't matter why we're known, we're just known

[Chorus]

C                           D
It doesn't matter why we're known

C                           D
It doesn't matter why we're known

 C                           D                Am
It doesn't matter why we're known, we're just known

C                           D
It doesn't matter why we're known

C                           D
It doesn't matter why we're known

  C                           D                Am
It doesn't matter why we're known, we're just known

[Bridge]

               F                             Am
If it all goes right, you'll see in our eyes

C            D            Am
We've finally made it out alive

  F                  Am
Will you wait for a sign?

C            D                  Am
It's time to have some peace of mind, wait

 A
You're on your own and in your eyes

C           D          G       Am
You finally see we've all gone blind

                 Am
Have we all gone blind?
