[G] [F#] [C]
[G] [Bm] [F]
[C] [G] I can't be [D] sure of you anymore, [F] and I doubt if even [C] you care.
[G] There's a stone in your shadow, the more that you ramble, [F] the less that you [C] understand.
But [Bm] be sure [Am] there'll come a time, for the speaker to [C] justify his own mind.
[G] Whatever you want to [G] hold on to, hold [F] it tightly in your [C] hand.
[G] I demand [D] that you make a stand, and [F] it's commendable that you [C] would.
[G] But everyone knows [D] when it's all said and done, you're explanable, so [C] what's the good?
[Bm] All these things that [Am] you're after, [F] have a habit of coming [C] in their own [G] time.
So just lay [D] low, let it go, [F] and make your [C] plans when you should.
[G] [C] Innocent by standards, [Bm] wondering why, [G] innocent [C] by standards.
[Bm] Standing tall, but waiting for the rest of the [C] world, to grind itself to the ground.
[Em] Words you hear, [A] will soon disappear, [Bm] but we'll still [C] be around.

So [G] don't let the better [D] man be denied, [F] what have you [C] got to lose?
[Bm] If it's conscious, [Am] that helps you, [F] it's that hangover from [C] those bygone days.
[G] They're not the real issues anymore, [F] it's up to [C] you to choose.
