[Intro 1]
[Am][G][Am][C][F][C][Em][Dm][Em][Am][C]
[F][Em][Dm][Am][C]
[F][C][Dm][Em][Am][C][F][Em][Dm][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[Am]This is not a model
[F]Fit for any mold.
[C]The twisted old and bitter tongues
Are [Em]reckless just as they are [Am]cold.
Dwelling on the dying
Is wet [F]fingers to the flame.
And I [D]cannot say that I believe
[Em]In every[C]thing that[Em] you propose
to me.
[Am][C][Dm][G][Am]

[Verse 2]
I'd rather learn from children.
I'd [F]rather see their world.
In [C]all it's natural splendor,
And [Em]all it's harsh distress unknown.
[Am]Not what's old and jaded,
[F]Forgotten or ignored.
[D]Or in the way of [Em]anything,
[C]There to keep [Em]the flame from burning.

[Verse 3]
[Am]I re[C]ad t[D]he[G] writing on [Am]the wall[C],
[G]and all[Am][F][C][D]
[G]I see[Am] is "Who has lost the sense?"
[C]I r[D]ead the writ[Am]ing on t[C]he wall,
[G]and all[Am][C][Dm]
[D]I see is [G]"Go[Am]t to get it, to give."

[Verse 4]
All [Am]that I care [C]to[G][D][C][G][D][C][Em][G][Am][C][D][G]
[D]kno[C]w i[D]s w[Em]hat y[Am]ou're wonder[C]ing.
All that I care [G]to see is what
[D]you[Em]'re seeing.
[Am]I want to know what you kn[C]ow,
Not the little things you'll
learn to guard you
(All the [G]little [D]thi[G]ng[D]
[Em]s we'll teac[Am]h you).
[C]I

[Verse 5]
[Dm]read[D] the[G] writing[Am] on the [C]wall,
[G]and all[Am][F][C][D]
[G]I see is, "Wh[Am]o has lost the sense?"
[C]I r[D]ead[Am] the writing [F]on t[C]he wall,
[G]and all[Am][F][C][D]
[Am]I see is, "Got to get it, to give."
