Intro: Am
Verse 1:
All my life I've been treading
paper in the space between the words
A F And there implied is that A I'm but another body for the birds Am carrion absurd and accidental F Am A atoms beating air Am carrying on unwitting orphan A Am of an unyielding despair
Guitar Solo: Am x2
Verse 2:
Am But linger on just for a moment Dm A until we can ascertain if
Amsomething's wrong with me
Or the assumptions of these
Dm A self indicted brains Am G Because I contend that all
of this is more than just
Dm A a meaningless charade Am That each and every moment is A(hold) a bottle with a message hid away
Chorus 1:
F Am G If anything means anything Dm Am There must be something meant G F for us to be a song Am G that we were made to sing Dm There must be so much Am G more than we can see
Verse 3:
Am G But all our lives we've
been treading paper
F A in the space between the words Am G And there implied's the thought
that we are barely more than
F A Am bodies for the birds carrion G They say that we're just accidental Dm A Am G atoms beating air carrying on and on Dm Unwitting orphans of an unyielding A despair
Bridge:
Dm But our hearts F tell a different story Dm E our hands feel a different pulse
Chorus 2:
Silence:
F C G If anything means anything F C There must be something meant G for us to be
Distortion:
F Am G If anything means anything Dm Am There must be something meant G F for us to be a song Am G that we were made to sing Dm There must be so much Am G more than we can see
Outro:
F Dm Something fathomless deeper than our F Dm pride can dive numinous higher than F Our hearts can rise transcendent Dm further than our thoughts F can reach immanent Dm A(hold) closer than the air we breathe
