Am                               Fmaj9
Can’t recall the moment when the doubt 
            Am   Fmaj9
Ripped your face 
   Am                              Fmaj9
Or put my finger on quite when the fog 
          Am    F/A
Took your place 
    C                                   G
Now we’ve been beating on it ‘til we’re black and blue 
          Am*                F/A
Just what good exactly is it gonna do 
C
Always so much harder 
        G                       Am  Fmaj9  Am  Fmaj9
So much harder when you have to try

      Am                         Fmaj9
Could we at least agree upon the size 
        Am    Fmaj9
And the shape 
    Am                           Fmaj9
The relative dimensions that the lie 
         Am   Fmaj9
Ought to take 
C                         G
For your delectation a scenario 
Am*                           F/A
Taken so much further than it needs to go 
C
Always so much harder 
G
Always so much 

   C                            G
If we could get away just for a week or two 

Am*                         F/A
Baby let it burn the way it used to do 
C
Always so much harder 
        G                       Am  Fmaj9  Am  Fmaj9
So much harder when you have to try

A                             Dm
And if the ground should open up 
            G*
And swallow me 
             F
It would not stop 
A                             Dm
That minute hand from ticking off 
             G*            F  Em
The minutes ‘til the penny drop

Am  Fmaj9  Am  Fmaj9 (x2)

Am                             Fmaj9
Not a breath of wind and not a cloud 
       Am  Fmaj9
In the sky 
Am                               Fmaj9
All the better then to watch the world
        Am  Fmaj9
