Chords: Em, C, G, and Am 

Intro: Em C G Am 2x 

Em 
Here we are again 
             C 
the same old place 
                G 
there's still a fire inside 
              Am 
and new lines on my face 

Em 
Everything's the same 
             C 
but it's all changed 
                 G 
the pieces still make the same picture 
                    Am                
even though they've been rearranged   

Em                    C 
   Another day you've sent 
                         G 
and we've twisted it all around 
                    Am 
but then we left it where it lay 

else we would've burned it to the ground 
Em                     C 
   But I can't take it back 
                   G 
and I said I never would 
                              Am 
I don't believe in Heaven but some things might be sacred 

at least I think they should 

Em 
Here we are again  
             C 
the same old place 
        G 
still a fire inside 
              Am 
and new lines on my face 

Em                         C 
   In the blackest dead of night 
                                     G 
was having nightmares of these awful things 
                               Am 
things I wouldn't ever want to think about 
let alone turn into words to sing 

Em                            C 
   Was there something that I missed?  
                       G 
along the way that was profound?  
                               Am 
and is the nature of things to come to us screaming 

and for us to cover up the sound?  

Strum Em 

Then I saw something, and that's when I fell ill 

then I saw someone, but they just gave me pills 

and I just felt worse so I turned away  

and I became a place that I don't wanna stay 

C                  G 
I don't want these visions anymore 
Am                    Em 
I was king for a day, well not anymore 
C                  G 
I don't want these visions anymore 
Am                       Em 
so open up the doors and help me up off the floor 

Repeat same rhythm and chords for "La la la" part 
( C G Am Em ) 
La la la (9x) 

Em C G Am 2x 

Em                     
And I wandered at the Union Station 
  C 
I thought that the marble would eat my wife 
    G 
and that the people around me were magic 
         Am 
and that I was a certain czar in the past life 
Em 
but it was just the so-called medicine 
C 
having me make these strange decisions 
G 
and so when I stepped into the daylight 
Am 
that's when I had the clear, beautiful vision: 

Em                               C 
I wanna live again, I wanna make amends 
                                       G 
I wanna start anew, I wanna change the end 
                                      Am 
I wanna stick around, I wanna stay in touch,  
                                   Em 
I wanna do some good, I wanna have enough,  
                                          C 
I wanna build new things, I wanna make it right 
                                          G 
I wanna work each day, I wanna write each night 
                                   Am 
I wanna be in love, I wanna be the one, 
                                  
I wanna be something, I wanna be someone 

Em 
Here we are again 
             C 
the same old place 
                G 
there's still a fire inside 
          Am 
new lines on my face 

Em 
Everything's the same 
             C 
but it's all changed 
                 G

                    Am

C                  G

Am                    Em

C                  G 
I don't want these visions anymore 
Am                       Em
