C The harder we play Am The faster we fall Dm When we think that we know it all G We know nothing at all C The letter arrives Am Like a bolt for the blue Dm So what's left of your lives G All your dreams lost to you F Say it's not true C Say it today Am When I open my eyes G Will it all go away F Say it's not true C Am Say it's not real Dm F Can't be happening to you C Can't be happening to me It's hard not to cry It's hard to believe So much heartache and pain So much reason to grieve With the wonders of science All the knowledge we've stored Magic cocktails for lives People just can't afford Say it's not true You can say it's not right It's hard to believe The size of the crime Say it's not true You can say it's not real Could be happening to you Could be happening to me
