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