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