[Intro:] D D7M D D7M A A7(4) A A7(4)

D                 D7M           D
I was holding on, now I'm letting go
               D7M
This is nothing more than a picture show
             G               Gm
Everything I knew now I hardly know

Busy keeping less never getting more
Em
One more nickel dime I'm out the door
A7
This kind of life I can't afford


   D            D7M
I want to believe there's something to believe
D           D7M              A   A7(4)
I would live only just to believe
         D            D7M            D
Oh, I'd love to believe it's not only me that's longing
D7M            A  A7(4)    A   A7(4)
Only just to believe, to believe
        G                Gm               D
'Cause I want to believe, I want to believe

Can't put my mind at ease with the words I say

Trying to get myself to get out of my way

Birds in the trees just make me depressed

Seeing sunny skies, feeling emptiness

Layers of lies just seem to fold

This kind of life is all I know


Em               A7
Murder wears a friendly smile
        D                F#          G
Like the perfect end in a plastic vial no pain
Em             A7                   D
Sorry I can't seem to stay but this bird was meant
    F#      G  Gm
To fly away, fly away, fly away

I will believe
I'd love to believe
I can believe in something
I will believe
I'd love to believe
I can't believe in nothing
