[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]All my mornings
[G]start with the [D]alarm clock
Every dream [Gm]gets stopped be
[G]fore the en[Bm]d
And with [D]each bit I [G]remember
The more the [D]details [G]run together
And I'm left [D]with a message [F#]I
don't [Bm]comprehend[E]
I've [Em]lost [D]con[Em]tact [D]with
the [A]great beyond again
[D]

[Verse 2]
And as [Bm]I stare over my breakfast
and [F#m]out into the street
I find that [D]sorrow I've been
chasing [C]way too of[G]ten,
That [Bm]the man that stands in front of
you is not [F#m]the sum of all his dreams,
But I'm [G]hoping they've got
[D]something in [G]common
I'm hoping they've got
[D]something in com[G]mon

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
The [D]way that love attack[G]s
and then surrender[D]s
The things I mean the most
[Gdim]when I say her nam[F#]e[Bm]
And if he [D]ever speaks of me cas[G]ually
I [D]hope he does so carefully
[G]'Cause when you've lov[D]ed somebody,
[F#]everything's [Bm]to blame[E]
And [Em]I do[D]n't want her
to [A]ever feel ashamed
[D]

[Verse 4]
But [Bm]all my best kept secrets are
the ones I [F#m]didn't know I had
So [D]I couldn't even tell her i[C]f I w[G]anted
That the [Bm]way that she remembers
me is not the [F#m]way I really am
But I'm [G]hoping they've got
[D]something in com[G]mon
I'm hoping they've got [D]something in com

[Verse 5]
So [G]I feel like a m[C]an behind a[G] camera
Who waits patiently for something
[Cm]he w[Cdim]on't see[B][Em]
I need [G]to stop giving sug[C]gestions
And just il[G]luminate the question[C]s
[G]That seems much more
ac[B]curate to [Em]me[A]
To [G]keep the frame as [D]wide
as it can be
[G]

[Verse 6]
'Cause all the [Em]love and friends and
happiness that [Bm]ever came my way
[G]Revealed themselves the moment
I stopped [C]watching
'Cause it's not [Em]faith that
comes from miracles
But mir[Bm]acles that come from faith
And I'm [C]sure that they've
got [G]something in com[C]mon
I know that they've got
[G]something in com[C]mon
I [D]know that they've [F#m]got so[B]mething
in com[Em]mon
