The Alchemist Chords by Philmont

[G#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The problem is [G] the alchemy, [F#] it just might be the [F] death of me
[E] Cause I know that I'm stuck, [F#] but I'm not giving [G] up that easy
[G#] I know there's got to [G] be a way [F#] to mix these things [F] and somehow make
[E] The perfect recipe, [F#] there simply has to [G] be
[G#] _ _ _ [B] _ [E] _ [B] _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [D#] _ [F#]
[G#m] Yes I've been a scientist, [B] respected and [C#] esteemed
[E] This lab became my home, [F#] the formulas are [D#] my [G#m] family
When I start out [G] to find a cause, [F#] it simply means [F] one thing
[E] Failure's not allowed, [F#] the truth will be [G#] revealed to me
[E] I found the answer, [F#] it's not what I [G#m] was [E] searching for [D#m] No
_ _ [G#]
It seems [B] scientists can't explain, before they tell [E] everything they know
My _ _ [F#] _ _ [D#] _ _
[G#m] work has been invented, [B] [E] there's no way to replicate the answer
The _ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ [G] _
[G#m] _ _ _ _ evidence [D#] is on my desk, [F#] it's true [B] and I found [Fm] my lab
[E] But there's no cause to this effect, [F#] something everything [D#] should have
[G#m] If I retreat, [D#] accept defeat, [F#] admit that I'm [Fm] a fool
[E] Forever trying to explain [F#] the [G] unexplainable
_ [E] I found the answer, [C#] it's not what [G#] I was [E] searching for [D#m] No
_ [C#] _ [G#] It [D#] seems scientists can't [B] explain, [F#] before they tell everything [E] they know _ _
[F#] _ _ [G] _ _ [G#m] _ [D#] My work has been [B] invented, there's no [F#] way to replicate [E] these things
What _
[C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ [C#] am I supposed [E] to say?
Shall I [C#] tell them all to live [E] by faith?
Instead they laugh, they [G#m] laugh right in [B] my face
There's no system, [C#] there's no method here
[E] That's [B] not the [F#] way we [C#] [G#] operate

[E] _ _ [G#m] _ [D#m] _ [C#] _ _ _ _
