Intro
E C#1 C#m A E1 E x2
[Verse]
E E1 E
Everyone's distant
C#m C#1 C#m
We're all the same
A
We're all trying to find something to live for
E E1 E E1 E
And shape our way
E1 E
Everyone's tired
C#m C#1 C#m
But we still try to climb
A
We're all stuck somewhere between
E
Water and wine
[Chorus]
C#m
Tell me why
A
Why do we settle
E E1 E E/G#
I don't understand
C#m A E
When did we sell our dreams for a house made of sand
[Verse]
E E1 E
We've heard of a savior
C#m C#1 C#m
But we wait for a sign
A
And we say that we're just too busy
E E1 E E1 E
Living this life
E1 E
So we're walking in circles
C#m C#1 C#m
Yeah, we're chasing the rhyme
A
But all that we've hoped for is lost
E
With our reasons and time
[Chorus]
C#m
Tell me why
A
Why do we settle
E E1 E E/G#
I don't understand
C#m A E
When did we sell our dreams for a house made of sand
C#m A E
And I don't wanna live like I'll never die
C#m A E
'Cause I've heard death often comes like a thief in the night
