F# C# D#m
So I sit here writing words in our old place
B
They all come out as letters
F# C# D#m
And I contemplate mistakes that we all make
B
Start and the ending of eras
F# C#
When mystery fades
D#m B
We identify the problems
F# C# D#m B
But, they may not be problems after all
[Pre-Chorus]
F# C# D#m B
Shock and dismay, they affect what we say
F# C#
We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues
D#m G(bar)
'Cause after all, it's only our lives anyway...
F# B C#
[Chorus]
F# B
And I can't let it bother me
C# F# C# D#m
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
B C# A5 B5 C#5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
F# C# D#m
So I sit here carving words into the wall
B F#
Words that remind me of just how I was
C# D#m
I never felt as old and lonely as I felt
B
When I was young and in love
F# C#
When mystery fades
D#m B
We identify the problems
F# C# D#m B
But, they may not be problems after all
[Pre-Chorus]
F# C# D#m B
Shock and dismay, they affect what we say
F# C#
We should bite our tongues, we should bite our tongues
D#m G(bar)
'Cause after all, it's only our lives anyway...
F# B C#
[Chorus]
F# B
And I can't let it bother me
C# F# C# D#m
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
B C# F#
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
B
And I can't let it bother me
C# F# C# D#m
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
B C# A5 B5 C#5
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
A5 B5 C#5
Too seriously,
A5 B5 C#5
Too seriously...
