Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][Gm][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[Gm]I walk down
the [G]diamond- [Gm]studded [C]concrete canyons
[Gm]Nobody looked me in the eye[C]
[Gm]Tried to fly to the [C]moon
Only made it to the [G]sky[Gm][G][C]

[Verse 2]
I was [G]looking [Gm]for an undying truth
[Cm]That had a[C] single frie[Gm]nd[G][C]
And I'm [Gm]searching for
a clear connec[C]tion
Without a digital [Gm]send[G]
[C]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
Ain't it [D]just a little [C]scary sometimes
[Gm]To find [G]the [Em]lies that
you [C]know [G]to be true
[C]I'll find you smiling [Am]about
Things you [D]don't have to [Gm]do[C]
Things you don't have to [Gm]do[C]

[Verse 4]
[G]Bill, doesn't call me anymore
[C]I hear, he's found religio[Gm]n[C]
He's [G]watchin' Benny Hinn
With big [C]blonde- haired apprentice
[Gm]beau[C]tician

[Verse 5]
All the [Gm]words and gesticulation
[C]s that came before
[Gm]They don't seem to mean a th[C]ing
[Gm]You can feel fine to drop a dime
[C]If you're eve[Gm]r han[C]ging
by a string
[Eb]

[Verse 6]
[Em]
Ain't it [D]just a little [C]scary sometimes
[G]To find the[Em] lies that you kno[C]w
[G]to be [Gm]true[G][C]
Find you smiling [Am]about
Things you don't [D]have to [G]do[C]
Things you don't have to [Gm]do[C]

[Verse 7]
[Gm]I hear voices cryin' out
[C]Echoes on the boulevard
[Gm][G][Gm][C]
Con[Gm]tentious rambling [C]incantations
Of [G]some [Gm]senile [C]bard

[Verse 8]
There's [Gm]too much goin' on around here
[C]To keep my head from spinnin[Gm]g[C]
And this [G]constant acceleration
[C]Blurs any [Gm]ties to
the be[C]ginning[Em]
Ain't it [D]just a little scary

[Verse 9]
[C]som[G]etimes
To find the [Em]lies that you
[C]know to be [Gm]true[G]
[C]I'll find you smiling abo[Am]ut
Things you don't have to
[G]do[Gm][G][C]
Things you don't have to [Gm]do[C]
Things you don't have to [G]do[C]
Things you don't have to [G]do[C]
