Tuning: Standard
No capo

'No Matter What You're Told' is a song from Broken Bells new album called 'After The
Disco'. I couldn't find any lyrics online so I had to listen carefully and try to write the
lyrics down. I can't really hear what James Mercer is singing at some parts in the song 
so the lyrics aren't a 100 percent correct. I did my best anyway. Feel free to comment
and rate!

Intro:
Em - D - Em - G
Em - D - Am - C
(x2)

Verse 1:
Em                 D
You're falling way behind
Em                                G
well give it just a little bit of time
Em                    D
'cause when we're all exposed
                    Am       C
do you wanna be the first in line?

Em               D                      Em                      G
Those bewitching crowds, the smoke they blow can make your head pop
    Em                 D             Am         C
the ego is playing its tricks on you again, and again

Chorus:
G                  D
We'll blow all our chances thinking 
   G            Em                G
we know all the answers and so it goes
             D
with all the changes, nothing changes
D
no matter what you're told

Em - D - Em - G
Em - D - Am - C

Verse 2:
Em                   D
So you're picking up signs
Em                                     G
you're scared you might be losing your mind
Em                       D           
and all the hopes of any shot you've got
            Am    C
are leaving you behind

Em            D               Em              G
You're making light of this I know and it's a shame
Em        D                 Am          C
that your silly sentimental heart is to blame

Chorus:
G                  D
We'll blow all our chances thinking 
   G            Em                G
we know all the answers and so it goes
             D
with all the changes, nothing changes
D
no matter what you're told

Em - D - Em - G
Em - D - Am - C

G    D    Em
Aaah Aaah Aaah

Bridge:
G                               D
You don't want to end up in the lost and found
           Em
you better hold on tight
G                                    D
odds will turn to events when you're upside down
              Em
you've got to hold on tight
G                               D
I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground
            Em
you need to hold on tight

Chorus:
G                  D
We'll blow all our chances thinking 
   G            Em                G
we know all the answers and so it goes
             D
with all the changes, nothing changes
D
no matter what you're told
