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

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