[Eb] Inexplicably high, [C] inexplicably low I [Gb]
think I know [Fm] what I want but I don't know [Eb] where to go
And all the while [Db] it seems [C] that I'm living in [Bb] my dreams
[Gb]
[D] No, not [Eb] in the now
When I was four, I raised my finger to a moving car, it crashed
So I assumed I had a [Gb] superpower, I didn't [Bb] raise that [Fm] finger until I was [Eb] nine
When a schoolboy attacked for the 25th time
[Ebm] Down I [Eb] went, my [Cm] index still up
So convinced that he would just [Gb] drop
Powerless to make [Fm] it stop
[Ebm]
Powerless to make it stop
[Eb]
[Db] Inexplicably high, [Ab] inexplicably low
[B] I [Db]
think I know [Bb] what I want but I don't know [Eb] where to go
[Ebm] And all the while [Db] it seems that [C]
I'm [Ab] living in my dreams
[Gb] No,
[D] not [Ebm] in the now
[Eb] [Gb]
Nineteen, I still just about believed in [Eb] God
I guess that I was pretty late to shake it [Bb] off
Faulty magic whisper [Ab] to the man [Eb] who could mend
I cranked myself in thinking he could cure my best [Gb] friend
Two weeks in, his [Fm] insides gave up
[Eb] The judge [B] can't tell, so why would words bring [Bb] him luck?
Powerless to make [Ab] it stop
[Eb]
Powerless to make it stop
Inexplicably high, [Bb] [Ebm] inexplicably low
[Gb]
I think I know [Bb] what I want but I don't know [Eb] where to go
[Bb] [Eb] And all [Ebm] the while it seems that [Eb] I'm living in my dreams
[Gb] No, not in the now
[Bb] No, not [Eb] in the now
Now, [Db] my hands are pulling [Gb] at the donkey's [Bb] reins
I feel [D] I've gone the wrong route down a dusty [Ebm] lane
The grass [Gb] could have been greener [E] down the first [B] road I took
I'd give up my [Ebm] happiness just for one thing
[Db] Last to win is eating me [Gb] up
A game [Fm] I can't win [Bb] up against [Ebm] my own class
Powerless to make [E] it stop
[B] [C]
Powerless to make [Eb] it stop
[Ebm] [Eb]
Inexplicably high, inexplicably low
[Gb]
I think I know [Bb] what I want but I don't know where [Eb] to go
And all the while [Ebm] it seems that [Cm]
I'm living [Cm] in my dreams
No, not in [Bbm] the now
[Gb] [D] [Eb]
[Db] Inexplicably high, [Cm] inexplicably low
[Gb]
I think I know what [Bb] I want but I don't know where [Eb] to go
[Db] [Eb] And all the [Db] while it seems [Cm] that I'm living in [Ab] my [Gb] dreams
No, not in the now
[Bb] No, not in [Eb] the now
[Bb] Inexplicably [Cm] high, inexplicably [Ab]
low
[Cm] [Gb]
I think I know what [Ab] I want but I don't [Eb]
[Eb] know
And all the while [Bbm] it seems that [Bb]
I'm living in my dreams
Not in [Gb] the now
[D] [Eb]
