Chords

[Intro] Bm [Verse 1]
        Bm
Lost my shape, trying to act casual

      Bm
Can't stop, I might end up in the hospital

            Bm
Changing my shape, I feel like an accident

        Bm
They're back to explain their experience
[Chorus]
         Bm
Isn't it weird? Looks too obscure to me

         Bm
Wasting away, that was the policy
[Verse 2]
             Bm
I'm ready to leave, I push the fact in front of me

      Bm
Facts lost, facts are never what they seem to be

                Bm
There's nothing there, no information left of any kind

              Bm
Li-lifting my head, lo-lo-looking for the danger signs
[Chorus]
            Bm
There was a line, there was a formula

           Bm
Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us

            Bm
There was a line, there was a formula

           Bm
Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us
[Riff] Bm [Bridge]
    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting
[Chorus]
              Bm
The feeling returns whenever we close our eyes

           Bm
Lifting my head, looking around inside
[Verse 3]
              Bm
The island of doubt, it's like a taste of medicine

           Bm
Working by hindsight, got the message from the oxygen

             Bm
M-m-making a list, find the cost of opportunity

         Bm
Doing it right, facts are useful in emergencies
[Chorus]
              Bm
The feeling returns, whenever we close our eyes

           Bm
Lifting my head, looking around inside
[Verse 4]
Bm
Facts are simple and facts are straight

Bm
Facts aren't lazy and facts aren't lame

Bm
Facts don't come with points of view

Bm
Facts don't do what I want them to

Bm
Facts just twist the truth around

Bm
Facts are living turned inside out

Bm
Facts are getting the best of them

Bm
Facts are nothing on the face of men
[Outro]
    Bm
I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting

    Bm
I'm still waiting

        Bm
I-I-I'm still waiting
