[verse 1]
               C
The cycle goes on and on
                     Am                      F
An endless circle of scaring the shit out of me
          C
As we get strung along
                  Am                 F
Dragged 'til we're nothing but cosmic debris


[refrain]
Am          F               C
And there's something wrong
            G                              Am
And there's something wrong with everything
Am       F        C
And what spurs us on
          G        C   Am   F      C   Am  F
Will pull us apart


[verse 2]
               C
Just trying to find our place
                        Am               F
Fight our way through a four dimensional space
          C
And our reward for this
   Am                 F
Is not knowing why we exist


[refrain]
Am          F               C
And there's nothing wrong
            G                              Am
And there's nothing wrong with anything
Am       F        C
And what spurs us on
          G        C
Will pull us apart

         C
If I can ask one thing when I am dead
          Dm
Would you lay me down by the river bed?
C
Let me wash away
        F
Let it take me back from where I came
C
All I am and all I was is just
D
Blood and dirt and bones and mud
        Em              C
And I'm better off that way
F                   C
I'm better off that way
         C
If I can ask one thing when I am dead
          Dm
Would you lay me down by the river bed?
C
Let me wash away
        F
Let it take me back from where I came
C
All I am and all I was is just
D
Blood and dirt and bones and mud
        Em              C
And I'm better off that way
F                   C
I'm better off that way
