Intro G  D  A  Bm  G  D  

A            G               D 
   Oh the years have not been kind 
           A            D 
They rush away just like sand 
          G               D 
That's been caught up in a stream 
        A 
Now the silence I can't stand 
      G                  D 
But I can't seem to break it 
             F#m              Bm 
I always hoped that there was more 
          G                   D 
I open my mouth, but it's just noise  
              A        D 
No I don't sing anymore

( Bm  G  D ) 

A            G               D 
   Oh the paper it just lays there 
       A              D   
In a neat unblemished square 
          G             D 
Though it's had so many words 
             A 
It seems the author didn't care 
            G                 D 
'Cause those words went up in flames 
                F#m           Bm 
Writing them down felt like a chore 
          G                   D 
That pen it weighs a thousand tons 
               A        D 
No I don't write anymore 

( G  D  A ) 
( Bm  G  D ) 

A          G               D 
   Oh the wind used to feel cold 
        A              D   
And the sunshine hot as hell 
        G                  D 
But now it all feels like a blur 
         A 
Now I cannot seem to tell 
             G               D 
Maybe the light is all outside 
             F#m             Bm 
But years ago I closed the door 
              G               D 
It seems I cannot find the knob 
              A           D 
No I don't feel it anymore 

( G  D  A ) 
( Bm  G  D ) 

A             G              D 
   Oh the world seems to have lost me 
        A                  D   
Or maybe I just lost the world 
        G                  D 
It don't listen to me these days 
           A  
And I can't catch the stones it hurls 
          G               D 
Maybe it's got nothing to show 
            F#m               Bm 
Just the sex, the blood, the gore 
          G               D 
I used to think that it is more 
             A         D 
No I don't know anymore 
             A         D 
No I don't know anymore 
             A         D 
No I don't know anymore
