[F#] [C#m] [F#] How [C#m]
[F#] it follows our like water, follows water.
Everything is governed by the rule one thing leads to another.
You can't really place blame because blames much too messy.
[A#m] It's almost bound [B] to get on you or your [F#] child will put it on.
Don't fool yourself into thinking things are simple.
Nobody's lying, still the stories don't line up

Don't fool yourself into thinking things are simple. _ _ _ _
Nobody's lying, still the stories don't line up _ _
Why do you try to hold on, but you'll never get a hold on? _
You wouldn't try to [B] put the ocean in a [F#] paper [C#] cup
_ [F#] _
_ _ [C#] _ _ [F] _ [D#] [G#m] I have [A#m] had something [F#] [B] that grows
[F#] [C#] Long as I've had something that [D#] needs improvement
And [A#m] you know how every [B] time I [F] move
I [C#] make a [D#] woman's moon
[D#m] And first you [A#m] decide what you [B] gotta do
Then you [C#] go out and [D#] do it
[D#m] And maybe [A#m] the most that [F#] we [B] can do
Is just [F#] to see [C#] each other [F#] through
An _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] _
hour follows hour like water in a river
And _ _ [F#] from one to the next we don't know what each hour will deliver
_ _ We just call it like we see, we call it out loud as we can
And _ then [B] afterwards we call it all water [F#] over the dam
And _ _ _ _ _ maybe the moral high ground in their size it seems
_ _ _ Maybe we are both good people who've done some bad things
_ _ I just hope it was okay, I know it wasn't
I _ _ hope [B] in the end we can laugh and say it was [F#] [C#] okay
[F#] I _ [C#] _ _
_ [D#m] _ [B] [A#m] have had [F#] something [B] that grows
[C#] Long as I've had something that [D#] needs improvement

And [A#m] maybe the [F#] most that [B] we can do
[F#] Is just to [C#] see each other [F#] through
We _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ [F#] make our own gravity to give way to things _
_ _ And then things fall and they break and gravity sinks _
_ _ We can only hold so much is what I figure
We _ try and keep our eye on the big [B] picture
And the picture keeps [F#] getting bigger
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Too much is how I love you, but too well it's how I [G#] know you
[F#] _ _
And I've got nothing to prove this time, just something to show you _ _ _
I guess I just wanted you to see
_ _ [A#m] _
[B] That it was all [F#] worth it to me _ _
