Intro
A# D# A# x2
A# D# A#
All my mornings start with the alarm clock
A# D#dim Gmin
Every dream gets stopped before the end
A# D# A# D#
And with each bit I remember, the more the details run together
A# D#dim Gmin Bbdim
And I’m left with a message I don’t understand
A# F A#
I’ve lost contact with the great beyond again
Gm Dmin
And as I stare over my breakfast and out into the street
F7 G# D#
I find that sorrow I’ve been chasing way too often
Gm Dm
That the man that stands in front of you is not the sum of all his dreams
D# A# D#
But I’m hoping they’ve got something in common
D# A# D#
Yeah, I’m hoping they’ve something in common
A# D# A#
The way that love attacks and then surrenders
A# D#dim Gm
The things I mean the most when I say her name
A# D# A# D#
And if he ever speaks of me casually, I hope he does so carefully
A# D#dim Gm Bbdim
‘Cause when you’ve loved somebody, everything’s to blame
A# F A#
And I don’t want her to ever feel ashamed
Gm Dm
But all my best kept secrets are the ones I didn’t know I had
F7 G# D#
So I couldn’t even tell her if I wanted
Gm Dm
That the way that she remembers me is not the way I really am
D# A# D#
But I’m hoping they’ve got something in common
D# A# D#
I’m hoping they’ve got something in common
Bbdim D#dim Gm
I’m hoping they’ve got something in common.
A#7 G# G#m
D# G# D#
So I feel like a man behind a camera
D# B#dim Cm
Who waits patiently for something he won’t see
D# G# D# G#
I need to stop giving suggestions and just illuminate the questions
D# B#dim Cm D#dim
That seems much more accurate to me
D# A# D#
To keep the frame as wide as it can be
Cm Gm
Cause all the love and friends and happiness that ever came my way
A#7 C# G#
Revealed themselves the moment I stopped watching
Cm Gm
Cause it’s not faith that comes from miracles, but miracles that come from faith
G# D# G#
And I’m sure that they’ve got something in common
G# D# G#
I know that they’ve got something in common
D#dim B#dim Cm
I know that they’ve got something in common
D#7 G#m A
