Tom: D
[Intro] G D A Bm G D
A G D
Oh the years have not been kind
A D
They rush away just like sand
G D
That's been caught up in a stream
A
Now the silence I can't stand
G D
But I can't seem to break it
F#m Bm
I always hoped that there was more
G D
I open my mouth, but it's just noise
A D
No I don't sing anymore
( G D A )
( Bm G D )
A G D
Oh the paper it just lays there
A D
In a neat unblemished square
G D
Though it's had so many words
A
It seems the author didn't care
G D
'Cause those words went up in flames
F#m Bm
Writing them down felt like a chore
G D
That pen it weighs a thousand tons
A D
No I don't write anymore
( G D A )
( Bm G D )
A G D
Oh the wind used to feel cold
A D
And the sunshine hot as hell
G D
But now it all feels like a blur
A
Now I cannot seem to tell
G D
Maybe the light is all outside
F#m Bm
But years ago I closed the door
G D
It seems I cannot find the knob
A D
No I don't feel it anymore
( G D A )
( Bm G D )
A G D
Oh the world seems to have lost me
A D
Or maybe I just lost the world
G D
It don't listen to me these days
A
And I can't catch the stones it hurls
G D
Maybe it's got nothing to show
F#m Bm
Just the sex, the blood, the gore
G D
I used to think that it is more
A D
No I don't know anymore
A D
No I don't know anymore
A D
No I don't know anymore
