A Bm
It all makes sense now I've calmed down
A Bm
I should have seen it coming from miles down the road
A Bm
But at the time we never think
A Bm
That it might've been ourselves to blame at all
A Bm
You shudder and beat your chest
A Bm
But you'll never warm yourself up believe me
A Bm
Where were you? I'd made it through
A Bm
But only god can judge me now, I hope he's in
C
Why do hearts break
Bm
When we are on our own
D C Bm
Just when you need to pump the life back in yourself?
C
And why do earthquakes
Bm
Happen miles away
D C Bm
When I only want the open ground to swallow me?
A Bm
Who told you I'd not come through
A Bm
Before I could speak to you in my defence?
A Bm
Who made you the righteous one
A Bm
When I'd only turned around for half an hour?
C
Why do chalk lines
Bm
Tell an empty tale
D C Bm
And surely it's bad enough to end up on the floor?
C
And you can scratch your chin
Bm
I think you understand
D C Bm
But how can you know what's going on inside my head?
D C Bm
Maybe I'm better off alive and in my bed
