Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Am][C][D]
[G][Am][C][D]

[Verse 1]
I'm [G]tryin' to tell you
[Am]somethin' 'bout my l[C]ife[D]
Maybe [G]give me insight
[Am]bet ween black and w[C]hite[D]
And the [D]best thing you've ever done for [C]me
Is to [D]help me take my life less serious[C]ly
It's only life [G]af ter [Am]all, [C]yeah[D]

[Verse 2]
Well [G]darkness has a [Am]hun ger
that's in[C]sa [D]tiable
And [G]lightness has a [Am]call
that's hard to [C]hear[D]
I [D]wrap my fear around me like a [C]blanket
I [D]sailed my ship of safety 'til I [C]sank it
I'm crawling on your [G]shores

[Chorus 1]
And I [D]went to the doctor,
I [C]went to the [G]mountains
I [D]looked to the children,
I [C]drank from the [G]fountains
There's [D]more than one answer
to these [C]questions
Pointing me in a [G]crooked line
And the [D]less I seek my source
for some defi[C]nitive
The closer I [G]am to [Am]fine, [C]yeah
The [D]closer I [G]am to [Am]fine,
[C]yeah[D]

[Verse 3]
And I [G]went to see the [Am]doc tor
of phi[C]lo [D]sophy
With a [G]poster of Ras[Am]pu tin
and a [C]beard down to his [D]knee
He [D]never did marry
or [C]see a B-Grade movie
He [D]graded my performance,
he [C]said he could see through me
I spent [G]four years prostrate
[D]to the higher [C]mind
Got my [D]paper and I was [G]free

[Chorus 2]
And I [D]went to the doctor,
I [C]went to the [G]mountains
I [D]looked to the children,
I [C]drank from the [G]fountains
There's [D]more than one answer
to these [C]questions
Pointing me in a [G]crooked line
And the [D]less I seek my source
for some defi[C]nitive
The closer I [G]am to [Am]fine, [C]yeah
The [D]closer I [G]am to [Am]fine,
[C]yeah[D]

[Interlude 1]
[D][C]
[D][C]

[Verse 4]
I [G]stopped by the [Am]bar
at three [C]A.M.[D]
To seek [G]so lace in a [Am]98 le,
or [C]possibly a [D]friend
And I [D]woke up with a headache
like my [C]head against a board
[D]Twice as cloudy as I'd been
the [C]night before
And I went in seeking [G]clarity

[Chorus 3]
And I [D]went to the doctor,
I [C]went to the [G]mountains
I [D]looked to the children,
I [C]drank from the [G]fountains
We [D]go to the doctor,
we [C]go to the [G]mountains
We [D]look to the children,
we [C]drink from the [G]fountain
Yeah, we [D]go to the Bible,
we [C]go through the [G]work out
We [D]read up on revival,
we [C]stand up for the look[G]out
There's [D]more than one answer
to these [C]questions
Pointing me in a [G]crooked line
And the [D]less I seek my source
for some defi[C]nitive
The closer I [G]am to [Am]fine[C]
The [D]closer I [G]am to [Am]fine[C]
The [D]closer I [G]am to [Am]fine,
[C]yeah[D]
[G]
