[Fm]
[G#] [C#] [G#]
[F#] I wake up every [C#] morning I hear [C#m] your feet on the [F#] stairs
[C#] You're in the next apartment I hear you singing over [G#] there
[F#] This [C#m] groove is [A#m] out of fashion
[F#] These beats [C#] are thirty years [F#] old
I saw [C#] you lend a hand [Fm] to
The ones that are standing in [G#] the cold
[C#] [G#]
[A#m] Strange are the tones
[F#] In the music you are playing
Our heart [C#] blends
[Fm] It is strong and you are tough
But our heart [G#] is not [C#] enough
[G#]
[F#] Put on your socks and mittens
It's getting colder [C#] [F#] tonight
A [C#] snowball in my kitchen
[Fm] I watched it melt before [G#] my [C#] [G#]
[F#] eyes
Your song still [A#m] needs a [F#] chorus
I know you'll figure it out
The [C#] rising of the verses
[Fm] A change in key will let you [G#] out
[A#m] Strange are the tones
[F#] Though they're slightly out of fashion
Our heart [C#] blends
[Fm] See the music in your face
[G#] But your words cannot explain
[C#] [G#] There's [C#] [G#m] something I recognize about [A#m] religion
[D#] that us evangelical atheists haven't really grappled with yet
which is that [Cm] it gives people [A#m] a chance to surrender
[C#] What religion says to you, essentially, is
you're not in control
Now, that's a very liberating idea
[G#]
[A#m] Strange are the tones
[F#] In the music you are playing
We're not [C#] alone
[Fm] It is strong and you are tough
But our [G#] heart is not enough
