C Bb F

[Verse]
C                                              Bb              F
He went to Hyannis to let go of Alice for the third and final time
C                                                      Bb              F
I asked him if it worked when he got back, he said he didn't have the time

Eb                    Bb            Eb             F
The time to tell me anything or the time to let her go
Eb                      Bb
But I guess it wasn't a good time to press
C                                      F
So I guess I'll never know, I'll never know

[Verse 2]
C                                                  Bb              F
On the way back looking straight ahead, we were hypnotized by the road
C                                           Bb                   F
Saw the coins on the dashboard truck and decide that they could float

Eb                              Bb        Eb                 Bb
In the air I looked down at the time, and mistook it for the radio
Eb                          Bb
I thought about the little choices we made along
C                                      F
And the song played on as if it didn't know

[Chorus]
F         Am     C
May we all be forsaken:
          Gm               Dm        F                 C
Like the soldier trying to leave, the mother trying to sleep
F         Am     C
May we all be mistaken:
Gm                Dm      F                   C
About our current state, about the current of hate

[Bridge]
C        Bb                           F
Bleeding on and on and on to sell our soul
Bb                                           Dm
Asked me why I was crying, said I stubbed my toe
C                         Dm
And I wanted to blame the roots of the trees
                                      F
For pushing up the concrete but now I know

[Verse 3]

Eb                              Bb        Eb                 Bb
In the air I looked down at the time, and mistook it for the radio
Eb                          Bb
I thought about the little choices we made along
C                                      F
And the song played on as if it didn't know

[Chorus]
F         Am     C
May we all be forsaken:
          Gm                 Dm
Like the black man trying to breathe
        F                  C
Or the woman that's never believed
F         Am     C
May we all be mistaken:
Gm                Dm      F                  C
About our current state, about the current of hate

[Bridge]
C        Bb                           F
Bleeding on and on and on to sell our soul
Bb                                           Dm
Asked me why I was crying, said I stubbed my toe
C                         Dm
And I wanted to blame the roots of the trees
                                      F
For pushing up the concrete but now I know

[Chorus]
F         Am     C
May we all be forsaken:
          Gm               Dm        F                 C
Like the soldier trying to leave, the mother trying to sleep
F         Am     C
May we all be mistaken:
Gm                Dm      F                   C
About our current state, about the current of hate
F         Am     C
May we all be forsaken:
          Gm                 Dm
Like the black man trying to breathe
        F                  C
Or the woman that's never believed
F         Am     C
May we all be mistaken:
Gm                Dm      F                  C
About our current state, about the current of hate
