     E       B                A         E 
Oh I wake up feeling the same way every day 
    E           B                       A              E 
And I'm aching, numb with the pain that I can't chase away 
   A                   E              D               F#m 
So I'm wondering who's taking up your sacred precious time 
            E              D            B 
Living from day to day without a single sign 
        B 
Would I lie? Oh no 
 
 
 
CHORUS: 
E 
One word, one letter, one line 
A              D     A   D      A 
And I'd feel a whole lot better 
E 
One look would say it's alright 
A              D     A   D      A 
And I'd feel a whole lot better 
 
 
 
E                   B                 A              E 
My heart breaks the way you turn your back and carry on 
    E                     B               A                   E 
And my head hurts cause I just can't work out why it all went wrong 
   A                     E                D           F#m 
So I'm wondering, oh the more I think the less I understand 
           E             D              B 
Leaving is easy when you know you're in command 
        B 
Would I lie? Oh no 
 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
 
 
B                               E 
Yes I'd feel a whole lot better now

Would I try, try to keep 
              F#m                             B 
Just a little something that means nothing to me 
           A                     E 
Oh, why pretend that I'm in that deep, Lord
