Tom: C

C  G  F 

[Verse 1]
             C                      G 
Wouldn't you think that I'd have it all 
        F
Figured out by now
C             G                F
That I'd know exactly what I'm dong
             C                     G    
Wouldn't you think that I'd have a key
   F 
To open every melody 
    C               G              F
And sing like it is all here at my feet

[Verse 2]
             C                     G
Wouldn't you think that I'd have a life 
        F      
Hanging on my wall
C          G               F
So I could prove that I'm alive
              C                     G           
But these are just things I've been given
      F 
For a plastic way of living
        C                G            F
And I'm not sure if that really is my style

[Chorus]
Dm                          G               
The second hand it rolls on by
Dm                              G
It never looks back to wait for mine
         C        F           G    
And if I fall any harder this time
     C       F      Dm               G 
If I dig any deeper Lord what will I find
             F             
Well you can buy my life on radio
    C
And order me by mail
        F                          G
But not everything about me is for sale
       F                          G  
No not everything about me is for sale

[Verse 3]
             C                       G
Wouldn't you think that I'd have the strength 
         F
To carry anything
C                        G                F                   
And I could buy myself a brand new set of hands
    C                  G             F
But sometimes like the others I just run away take cover
      C                 G           F
And I swear that no one really understands

[Chorus/Outro]
Dm                          G               
The second hand it rolls on by
Dm                              G
It never looks back to wait for mine
         C        F           G    
And if I fall any harder this time
     C       F      Dm               G 
If I dig any deeper Lord what will I find
             F             
Well you can buy my life on radio
    C
And order me by mail
        F                          G
But not everything about me is for sale
       F                          G  
No not everything about me is for sale
             C                      G 
Wouldn't you think that I'd have it all 
        F
Figured out by now
