[Verse 1]
C#m
All aboard this sinking ship
No business here, it's just relationships
A B
Derived, contrived, another mind homogenised
C#m
Should this mean more to me?
E
Just join the tribe and feel accepted
A
But cool don't come for free
B
That much was expected, forever discontented
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A C#m
The rope that pulled me from the pit now hangs around my neck
B
Is this the clue you wanted? Too cryptic for the rest
A C#m
Play the part of the victim if it puts your mind at ease
F#m G#
Put all the blame on me, close your eyes and listen please
[Chorus]
A E C#m B
So what you feel, is it nostalgia or love?
A E B
Tell me now, are you really listening
A E
When everybody tells you to stop
C#m B
And that you're never good enough?
A E B
Tell me now, are you really listening?
C#m E
Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
B E B
Are you listening? Are you listening?
C#m B
Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
B
Are you listening? Are you listening?
[Verse 2]
C#m
Reach out for help and she lets you down
So gild your pockets, we'll watch you drown
A B
B burnt taste, a real waste, a sticky stain we'll soon erase
C#m
'Cause this means more to me
And we'll still look to the lights in the sky
A B
It's hard when all I see another ceiling I don't recognize
A C#m F#m G#
With no concern, and deathless turn, now we take control
[Chorus]
A E C#m B
So what you feel, is it nostalgia or love?
A E B
Tell me now, are you really listening
A E
When everybody tells you to stop
C#m B
And that you're never good enough?
A E B
Tell me now, are you really listening?
C#m E
Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
B E B
Are you listening? Are you listening?
A E
Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
G#m G# C#m
Are you listening? Are you listening?
[Solo]
Bm, Bm, G, E
G, G, B, A
[Breakdown]
E
As we pass by tonight
E
We fade into hindsight
E
The time slips off our lives
E
Can this be realised?
[Interlude]
G, G, G, B
G, G, B, A
[Chorus]
A E C#m B
So what you feel, is it nostalgia or love?
A E B
Tell me now, are you really listening
C#m B
When everybody tells you to stop
A G#
And that you're never good enough?
A B
Tell me now, are you really listening?
[Outro]
B
Oh, are you listening? (What are you listening?)
A E
(This was the night and this was the place)
(And this was the moment, this was the moment)
B A E B
Are you listening? Are you listening? Oh
B
(This was the night and this was the place)
(And this was the moment, this was the moment)
B C#m
Are you listening? Are you listening?
