Chords

** (C#m) is not played by the guitar in the recording but is alluded to by the bass. Sounds best to play it if you are playing solo guitar. [Intro] F#m [Verse 1]
F#m                B7
Drawn to the sorta library magic

E                            A
Whispering through the dusty aisles

F#m
Watching all the thinkers read

B7
Trying to keep a grown man quiet's like

E
Pulling teeth on a winters eve

A
Cracks and poles and unfamiliar roads

F#m         B7           E
I'm on this one to find out
[Verse 2]
F#m            B7
Veggie gas and brothers harass

E                       A
Can stay up here in the cloud of eyes

F#m             B7
Listening to my every move

E
Just trying to survive

F#m          B7             E
Self-imposed adventure that selfishness drives

                     F#m 
I can barely keep my head above the blue

                  B7
Trying to keep it off me and you
[Chorus]
E                  C#m **
And I can see the sunshine's rays

A                    B7
Gleaming through the clear water

E               C#m **
Telling me you gotta hop in for

A
This chapter's ride

           F#m    B7         E
There will always be better days

           F#m    B7         E
There will always be better days
[Verse 3]
F#m             B7
Making music is what we do

E                   A
Trying to weave the patterns for me and you

F#m                 B7
Trying to make the grasses green

E
And the grown man cry
[Verse 4]
                  F#m            B7
Truth and Life is where I gleam

                E
Tangled up in a funnel's wind

                   F#m
Trying to come out walking

                   B7
Understand it's beyond me talking

                   F#m
Trying to come out walking

                   B7
Understand it's beyond me talking
[Chorus]
E                  C#m **
And I can see the sunshine's rays

A                    B7
Gleaming through the clear water

E                C#m **
Telling me you gotta hop in for

This chapter's ride

           F#m    B7         E
There will always be better days

           F#m    B7         E
There will always be better days
[Bridge]
F#m
Being alone isn't lonely

B7
Sought after like a holiday

F#m
Being alone is my vacation

                   B7
Postcard dreams, a full-sized bed
[Verse 5]
F#m                   B7
Quit the band one too many times

E                 A
Serious enough to get a rise

F#m                B7
Get up in the next morning

E
For another drive, that's a promise

F#m                B7
The best advice we ever received

E
Is for you and me to stay here together

F#m                             B7
It's easier to begin and hard to end

F#m                                      B7
I'm just glad to go through it all with you as a friend
[Chorus]
E                  C#m **
And I can see the sunshine's rays

A                    B7
Gleaming through the clear water

E                C#m **
Telling me you gotta hop in for
