C#-F#-A-C
[Verse]:
D
Ring the verse, let it in, said softly begin
C
If it feels like the first time, don't let it end
G A# C
Cause it wanders by like something that could have been
D C
If I were to write the song that could penetrate your ears
G
Would it calm your trembling soul
A# C
Would it ease your every fear
Pre-Chorus to Chorus:
Fbm G
Can we go back to the place where we all used to see through
Fbm A#
Everything blinding us, now you don't understand anything anymore
C C#-F#-A-C C#-F#-A-C
And you shiver at the sight...
D G A# C C#-F#-A-C
You're afraid to show that you're only so human tonight
[Verse]:
D
Could one song solve all our problems
C
Could it have the strength to heal
G
Or would it cripple and destroy
A# C
And leave nothing unrevealed
D
Might it uproot every lie
C
And force us all to cower
G
Beneath its tremendous weight
A# C
In the wake of all its power
Pre-Chorus to Chorus:
Fbm G
Can we go back to the place where we all used to see through
Fbm A#
Everything blinding us, now you don't understand anything anymore
C C#-F#-A-C C#-F#-A-C
And you shiver at the sight...
D G A# C C#-F#-A-C
You're afraid to show that you're only so human tonight

D
Oh, did you know, did you know
Did you know better
C
Don't you know, don't you know
Don't you know better
G
Don't you know, don't you know
Don't you know better
A#
Don't you know that
C C#-F#-A-C C#-F#-A-C
you shiver at the sight...
D G A# C C#-F#-A-C
You're afraid to show that you're only so human tonight
D G A# C
If I were to write the song
D G A# C
That could somehow change the world
D G
Would it be a calm surrender
A# C
Or a fight to the death?
D G
Would it give something to live for
A# C
Would we give our final breath?
D G
Would it be a roaring opera
A# C
Or as sweet as a child's kiss?
D G
Would it sound like all the others
A# C
Or would it sound something like this
