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