D A Bm
So I sit here writing words in our old place
G
They all come out as letters
D A Bm
And I contemplate mistakes that we all make
G
Start and the ending of eras
D A
When mystery fades
Bm G
We identify the problems
D A Bm G
But, they may not be problems after all
Pre-Chorus
D A Bm G
Shock and dismay, they affect what we say
D A
We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues
Bm G
'Cause after all, it's only our lives anyway...
D G A
D G
And I can't let it bother me
A D A Bm
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
G A F5 G5 A5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
D A Bm
So I sit here carving words into the wall
G D
Words that remind me of just how I was
A Bm
I never felt as old and lonely as I felt
G
When I was young and in love
D A
When mystery fades
Bm G
We identify the problems
D A Bm G
But, they may not be problems after all
Pre-Chorus
D A Bm G
Shock and dismay, they affect what we say
D A
We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues
Bm G
'Cause after all, it's only our lives anyway...
D G A
D G
And I can't let it bother me
A D A Bm
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
G A D
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
G
And I can't let it bother me
A D A Bm
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
G A F5 G5 A5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
F5 G5 A5
Too seriously,
F5 G5 A5
Too seriously...
