[Verse 1]
C
When they sat down at the Ouija board
F/C
He could feel her fingers move
G C F
Trying to find their future with her hands
C F F
C
Turning to the spirit world
F/C
Looking for some cosmic clue
G C F
In a language that they both might understand
C F F
G C
But she wasn't looking for a remedy
F
She knew she'd break his heart
G C
She just wanted to go quietly
F
Like it was written in the stars
G C
But it all comes out eventually
F
No matter how hard you resist
G C
That might be a harsh reality
D F
But that's the only kind there is
[Chorus]
C/E F
It's not the whisper in your ear
G Am
It's not banging of the drum
C/E F
It's not the person that you were
G Am
It's not the person you become
C/E F
It's not where you're headed to
G Am
And it's not where you're coming from
C/E F
The only life you're gonna live
G Am
Is out between the zero and the one
C/E F G Am
Out between the zero and the one
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C
When she shuffled all the tarot cards
F/C
He could see her stack the deck
G C F
But still turned up the tower and the moon
C F F
C
Well, she did try to disregard
F/C
And clutch that crystal 'round her neck
G C F
While they both felt a presence leave the room
C F F
G C
And he finally saw the difference
F
Between her history and her past
G C
How she's been looking for deliverance
F
From something she will never grasp
G C
She even had the nerve to tell him
F
That she tried hard as she could
G C
It's like she never even loved him
D F
As much as the reasons why she should
[Chorus]
C/E F
It's not the whisper in your ear
G Am
It's not banging of the drum
C/E F
It's not the person that you were
G Am
It's not the person you become
C/E F
It's not where you're headed to
G Am
And it's not where you're coming from
C/E F
The only life you're gonna live
G Am
Is out between the zero and the one
[Post-Chorus]
C/E F G Am
Out between the zero and the one
C/E F G Am
Out between the zero and the one
C/E F G Am
Out between the zero and the one
C/E F G Am
[Verse 3]
G C
So she must stake the superstitions
F
For the excuses that she needs
G C
To keep explaining her condition
F
To the few friends, she could keep
G C
But don't give them another thought
F
There's no need for us to dwell
G C
They are fine and they are not
D F
Just like everybody else
D F
Yeah, like everybody else
[Chorus]
C/E F
It's not the whisper in your ear
G Am
It's not banging of the drum
C/E F
It's not the person that you were
G Am
It's not the person you become
C/E F
It's not where you're headed to
G Am
And it's not where you're coming from
C/E F
The only life you're gonna live
G Am
Is out between the zero and the one
[Post-Chorus]
C/E F G Am
Out between the zero and the one
C/E F G Am
Out between the zero and the one
