Intro: Am  F  C 


F 
You seem like you're so restless, young at heart 
Am 
Who gave you reason? 
F 
You should be out driving people wild 
Am 
Who gave you reason? 

            F            C 
You got a shock to your system 
              F           C 
Knocked your heart right out of sync 

F 
You're only meant to hurt once in a while 
Am 
Who gave you reason? 
F 
You're only meant to cry once in a while 
Am 
Who gave you reason? 

            F             C 
You got a shock to your system 
        F      C 
Pull yourself out of it 
              F           C 
I know that shock to your system 
               F          C 
Knocked your heart right out of sync 

Am              F  C 
What you are 
What you are 
Am              F  C 
What you are 
What you are 

Am            F   C 
What you are is lonely 
Am              F  C 
What you are 
Am            F   C 
What you are is lonely 
Am              F  C 
What you are 


(Rest of the song: IDEM chord progression) 

You must rely on love once in a while 
To give you reason 
You must rely on me once in a while 
To give you reason 

You got a shock to your system 
Pull yourself out of it 
I know that shock to your system 
Knocked your heart right out of sync 

What you are 
What you are 
What you are 
What you are 

What you are is lonely 
What you are 
What you are is lonely 
What you are 

What you are is lonely 
What you are is lonely 
What you are is lonely
