[Intro]
Em7 G
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
Why is life like this?
Em7 G
Why is life like this?
Cadd9
Why is it like this?
Dsus4/F#
Hit or miss?
[Verse 1]
Em7 G
Every day I look around and I just wonder
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
Are we supposed to have this many blunders?
Em7 G
Go to work and pass the time?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
Ignore that we're a pantomime?
Em7 G
I look around at all we've conjured
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
But we're still looking for God's phone number
Em7 G
Cause we're just on a rock afloat
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
And we have no clue where we're going
[Chorus]
Em7
But in my mind
G
In my head
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
Is the only place where I am at
Em7 G
It's a sign and it's a thread
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
The only place where I'm attacked
Em7 G
I might find and I might mend
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
Some peace of mind to have my back
Em7
But should I try
G
Should I friend
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
The speculation and the cracks
Em7 G Cadd9
To say
Dsus4/F# Em7 G Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
I'm okay
[Verse 2]
Em7 G
Every day I look around and say it's no wonder
Cadd9
That I live inside my mind
Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
When I can't crawl under
Em7 G
A table to avoid the crime
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
Of never reaching the sublime
[Chorus]
Em7
But in my mind
G
In my head
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
Is the only place where I am at
Em7 G
It's a sign and it's a thread
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
The only place where I'm attacked
Em7 G
I might find and I might mend
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
Some peace of mind to have my back
Em7
But should I try
G
Should I friend
Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
The speculation and the cracks
Em7 G Cadd9
To say
Gsus2 Dsus4/F# Em7 G Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
I'm okay
[Bridge]
Em7 Cadd9
To say
Em7 Cadd9
I'm okay
[Outro]
Em7 G Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
In my mind
Em7 G Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
In my head
Em7 G Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
Ooh
Em7 G Cadd9 Gsus2 Dsus4/F#
I'm okay
