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

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