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