[Verse 1]
A#
When they sat down at the Ouija board
D#/A#
He could feel her fingers move
F A# D#
Trying to find their future with her hands
A# D# D#
A#
Turning to the spirit world
D#/A#
Looking for some cosmic clue
F A# D#
In a language that they both might understand
A# D# D#
F A#
But she wasn't looking for a remedy
D#
She knew she'd break his heart
F A#
She just wanted to go quietly
D#
Like it was written in the stars
F A#
But it all comes out eventually
D#
No matter how hard you resist
F A#
That might be a harsh reality
C D#
But that's the only kind there is
[Chorus]
A#/D D#
It's not the whisper in your ear
F Gm
It's not banging of the drum
A#/D D#
It's not the person that you were
F Gm
It's not the person you become
A#/D D#
It's not where you're headed to
F Gm
And it's not where you're coming from
A#/D D#
The only life you're gonna live
F Gm
Is out between the zero and the one
A#/D D# F Gm
Out between the zero and the one
[Instrumental]
A#/D D# F Gm
[Verse 2]
A#
When she shuffled all the tarot cards
D#/A#
He could see her stack the deck
F A# D#
But still turned up the tower and the moon
A# D# D#
A#
Well, she did try to disregard
D#/A#
And clutch that crystal 'round her neck
F A# D#
While they both felt a presence leave the room
A# D# D#
F A#
And he finally saw the difference
D#
Between her history and her past
F A#
How she's been looking for deliverance
D#
From something she will never grasp
F A#
She even had the nerve to tell him
D#
That she tried hard as she could
F A#
It's like she never even loved him
C D#
As much as the reasons why she should
[Chorus]
A#/D D#
It's not the whisper in your ear
F Gm
It's not banging of the drum
A#/D D#
It's not the person that you were
F Gm
It's not the person you become
A#/D D#
It's not where you're headed to
F Gm
And it's not where you're coming from
A#/D D#
The only life you're gonna live
F Gm
Is out between the zero and the one
[Post-Chorus]
A#/D D# F Gm
Out between the zero and the one
A#/D D# F Gm
Out between the zero and the one
A#/D D# F Gm
Out between the zero and the one
A#/D D# F Gm
[Verse 3]
F A#
So she must stake the superstitions
D#
For the excuses that she needs
F A#
To keep explaining her condition
D#
To the few friends, she could keep
F A#
But don't give them another thought
D#
There's no need for us to dwell
F A#
They are fine and they are not
C D#
Just like everybody else
C D#
Yeah, like everybody else
[Chorus]
A#/D D#
It's not the whisper in your ear
F Gm
It's not banging of the drum
A#/D D#
It's not the person that you were
F Gm
It's not the person you become
A#/D D#
It's not where you're headed to
F Gm
And it's not where you're coming from
A#/D D#
The only life you're gonna live
F Gm
Is out between the zero and the one
[Post-Chorus]
A#/D D# F Gm
Out between the zero and the one
A#/D D# F Gm
Out between the zero and the one
