  			Intro:  F(no 3)  Fmaj7    Gm7    Bb2  
        Am7      C        Bb2  
              F                 Fmaj7 
They say that these are not the best of times 
    Gm7                Bb2                F  Fmaj7  Gm7  Bb2  
But they're the only times I've ever known 
        F                Fmaj7         Gm7 
And I believe there is a time for meditation 
     Bb2                C  G C 
In cathedrals of our own 
A7       Dm               C            Bb2         F 
Now I've seen that sad surrender in my lover's eyes 
    G7/sus4      G7              Csus4      C 
And I can only stand apart and sympathize 
           Bb              F            Gm7 
For we are always what our situations hand us 
            C         Bb2      Eb  Bb 
It's either sadness or euphoria 
 
So we'll argue and we'll compromise 
And realize that nothing's ever changed 
For all our mutual experience 
Out separate conclusions are the same. 
Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity 
Our reason coexists with our insanity 
And though we choose between reality and madness 
It's either sadness or euphoria 
 
    Dm               C             Bb2     F 
How thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies 
   G7/sus4            G7                Csus4     C 
Perhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies 
          Bb             F             Gm7 
And as we stand upon the ledges of our lives 
           C            Bb2     Eb  Bb 
With our respective similarities 
            C         F        
It's either sadness or euphoria.
