VERSE
D Em
What if there's no hidden track
F#m G
No journey there, no journey back
D F#m
The rain falls down upon the same old grass
Em
The rain falls down
A
The rain falls down
D
The rain falls down
 
What if there's no secret word
No matter what you thought you heard
I asked the other son and he averred
No secret word
No secret word
No hidden track
 
Chorus
F#m G
But my words left me
D
And my heart it just went slack
A
Just went slack
F#m G
When I saw it passing
D
Cause what if it can't come back
A
It can't come back
Em -- A (then you can play a little bridge D-Em-F#m-G)
There's no hidden track
 
VERSE
What if there's no trapdoor down
The cold hard floor, the cold hard ground
The cold hard car commute back into town
No trapdoor down
No trapdoor down
No hidden track
 
Chorus
My words left
And my heart it just went slack
Just went slack
When I saw it passing
Cause what if they can't come back
They can't come back
There's no hidden track
No hidden track
 
VERSE
D Em
But for all of us and all of you
F#m G
There's some things we can't see into
D F#m
Cause from the other side no light shows through
Em
I hope that there's a hidden track
D
It feels like there's a hidden track
