Verse
A
You've taken the title of this song
F
From a life that's beyond
C A# A
Something that you could belong to
F C
But is it wrong to sing along
A# Am
When all of the words
D F
They just get on your nerves
D A
And the verse is ringing out like a curse
[Chorus]
C F
I'm tired of this old refrain
A# Am
Is the chorus you sang
D F
When you had no one to blame
D A
But yourself for singing it all in vain
[Verse 2]
A
You've taken the title of this song
F C
From a book that goes on and on
A# A
Til you can't find the ending
F C
Was it a funeral or a wedding
A# Am
Or a seance for the bride
D F
Whose affection had died
D A
Though some say love is suicide
[Chorus]
C F
My heart it don't make any sense
A# Am
Was all that she said
D F
When her love was found dead
D A
But the story was all in her head
[Interlude]
E D C A
Ah-----
E D C ... G A# A
Ah-----
[Verse 3]
A
You've taken the notes from your head
F
And played them out loud
C A# A
On the public announcement instead
F C
Cause all your thoughts get distorted
A# Am
The feedback goes on
D F
And you've ruined the song
D A
While everyone just plays along
[Chorus]
C F
It's only the notes that you've played
A# Am
That drowned out the thoughts
D F
From a song that was lost
D A
And the song you sang it didn't have a name
[Outro]
A A# F
A
There was nothing,
A# F
But the song we were singing
