Verse with Rhy. Fig. 1 (above):
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2
I’m tryin to tell you something about my life
D G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2
Maybe give me insight between black and white
D D11 C
And the best thing you’ve ever done for me
D11 C
Is to help me take my life less seriously
(------------------Rhy. Fig. 1----------------)
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Cause its only life after all
Verse with Rhy. Fig. 1:
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2
Well darkness has a hunger that’s insatiable
D G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D
And lightness has a call that’s hard to hear
Dsus2 D D11 C
And I’ll wrap my fear around me like a blanket
D11 C
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
G C G
And I’m crawling on your shore
Chorus:
D Cadd9 G
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
D Cadd9 G
I looked to the children and I drank from the fountains
D11 C
There’s more than one answer to these questions
G C G
Pointing me in a crooked line
D11 C N.C.
The less I seek my source for some definitive
(--------------Rhy Fig. 1----------
G A7sus4 Cadd9
The closer I am to fine------

Dsus4 D Dsus2 D G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
The Closer I am to fine------ yeah
Verse with Rhy. Fig 1:
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
I went to see the doctor of philosophy
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
D D11 C
And he never did marry or see a b-grade movie
D11 C
But he graded my performance and he said he could see through me
G D Cadd9
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
D G C G
I got my paper and I was free
[Chorus]
Verse with Rhy. Fig 1:
G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2
So I stopped by the bar at three a.m.
D G A7sus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus2
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
D D11 C
And I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
D11 C
I was twice as cloudy as I’d been the night before
G C G
When I went in seeking clarity
Outro/Chorus:
[chorus]
D Cadd9 G
Here we go to the doctor we go to the mountains
D Cadd9 G
We look to the children and we drink from the fountains
D Cadd9
Here we go to the bible we go through the workout
D G N.C. G
We read up on revival and we stand up for the lookout
D11 C
There’s more than one answer to these questions
G C G
Pointing me in a crooked line
D11 C N.C
The less I seek my source for some definitive
