[Verse]
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
I'm trying to tell you something about my life
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Maybe give me insight between black and white
Dadd4add9/A C/G
and the best thing you've ever done for me
Dadd4add9/A C/G
is to help me take my life less seriously
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
It's only life after all
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
and lightness has a call that's hard to hear
Dadd4add9/A C/G
and I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
Dadd4add9/A C/G
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
G
I'm crawling on your shores
[Chorus]
D Cadd9 G
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
D Cadd9 G
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
Dadd4add9/A C/G
There's more than one answer to these questions
G
pointing me in a crooked line
Dadd4add9/A C/G
and the less I seek my source for some definitive
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
The closer I am to fine
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
The closer I am to fine
[Verse]
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
I went to see the doctor of philosophy
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
Dadd4add9/A C/G
He never did marry or see a B-grade movie
Dadd4add9/A C/G
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me
G D Cadd9 D
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind, got my paper
G A7sus4 G
And I was free
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m.
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
Dadd4add9/A C/G
I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
Dadd4add9/A C/G
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
G A7sus4 G
I went in seeking clarity
[Chorus]
[Outro] Repeats and fades
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
The closer I am to fine
