Intro: ( F# | C# | D#m | C# | B | F# | C#| ) X2 then ( F# )

Verse: F#         C#      D#m       C# 
       'Everything     is by  design.'

          B                 F#        C#
       If that doesn't sound like some cryptic line.

              F#        C#          D#m           C#
       You're taking me     for a proverbial ride.

             B                  F#        C#
       If my heart wasn't broke you could eat me alive.

Pre-Chorus: F#  C#   D#m     C#
            Woah, so sad for me. . . 

            B  F#    C#                   F#
            Woah, oh baby please, please, please

Chorus:          C#  D#m             C#         B
        Say yes, say yes, say you'll never walk alone.

            F#       C#                      F#             
        And watch me break, I shatter on the stone.

           C#       D#m     C#       B
        So much for you, so much for this,

              F#        C#                       F#
        And I taste the bittersweet ignorance of bliss.

Verse:          F#m          C#m   D#m           C#m
       'If it's meant to be, we'll work it out.'

       Bm             F#m    C#m
       Another excuse that I highly doubt.

             F#m            C#m      D#m          C#m
       If we live our lives by these old cliches,

            Bm              F#m C#m
       we'd better be ready to  wait all day.

Pre-Chorus: F#m      Bm
            Woah, so sad for me. . . 

            Bm       C#m                  F#m
            Woah, oh baby please, please, please

Chorus:          C#m D#m             C#m        Bm
        Say yes, say yes, say you'll never walk alone.

            F#m      C#m      C#m            F#m             
        And watch me break, I shatter on the stone.

           C#m      D#m     C#m      Bm
        So much for you, so much for this,

              F#m       C#m                      Bm
        And I taste the bittersweet ignorance of bliss.

Bridge:         C#m F#m                     Bm
        I've waited all this time for what?

                 C#m F#m
        You'll never change your mind. It 

        G#m              A#m
        kills me just to think about the 

        Bm                 C#m  F#m  Fm D#m C#m Bm
        things we'll never find out.

Chorus (Toned Down): F#m          Fm          D#m            C#m        Bm
                         Say yes,    say yes,     say you'll never walk alone.

                         F#m      C#m      C#m            Bm          
                     And watch me break, I shatter on the stone. 

                           C#m        D#m       C#m      Bm
                    (I Shatter on the stone) So much for you 

                        F#m      C#m                C#m          F#m
                    (so much for this) bitter-sweet ignorance of bliss.

Chorus:          C#m D#m             C#m        Bm
        Say yes, say yes, say you'll never walk alone.

            F#m      C#m      C#m            F#m             
        And watch me break, I shatter on the stone.

           C#m      D#m     C#m      Bm
        So much for you, so much for this,

              F#m       C#m                      F#m
        And I taste the bittersweet ignorance of bliss.
