Start Jamming...
[E]
They say that the body is not of a durable kind,
Just cosmic as trees, distant as bones in the ground.
[A] While we and our [A] fortunes are gathered in dust,
We yearn for a hope that would lay those assumptions [E] to rest.
[C#m]
[B] Well, I know where that hope lives, and I know what it's like [E] to be lost.
Hate is a secret, and often we know who's been had.
We do run to others, and in love with a vision, it's fair.
And
[A] when we've had all our barbarian fun, we yearn for a heart that would soften like wax [E] and motion.
[B] Well, I know about forgiveness, and I know what it's like to [E] be loved.
What [B] [E]
[A] [B]
[E] [E]
[B]
[E]
shall we lie down with no everlasting exchange?
With no fascination beyond its investment of range?
[A] As our inheritance sinks, swept out sea, we ache with the knowledge that's not the way [E] it should be.
[B] Well, I know that's not the way it is, and I know what it's like [E] to be loved.
[B] Well, I know that's not the way it is, and I know what it's like [E] to be loved.
What's
[B]
[E] it like to be loved?
It's just a dead end, but I'm not dead.
Oh, [C#m] what's it like to be loved?
That's what it is.
No, it's not to be loved.
It's to be loved.
Oh, it's not to be loved.
