Tom: A
A D A E A D A E
[Verse 1]
A D A E
Throw away the thing that tells you
A D A E
Not to throw the thing away
A D A E
You'll forget to rue the day
A D A E
You went ahead and threw the thing away
[Chorus]
F#m A/E
Nine secret steps
D A/C#
To the key to the door that you'll
Bm D/A E
Throw in the well and let go
E9 E E9
Of all your thwarted dreams
E E9 E
And visions of success
[Verse 2]
F#m Bm F#m/A Fdim7
Amputate the thought that says
F#m Bm F#m/A E
You shouldn't ever amputate a thought
F#m Bm F#m/A Fdim7
You'll be overwrought until
F#m Bm F#m/A E
You go ahead and amputate the thought
[Chorus]
F#m A/E
Nine secret steps
D A/C#
To unlock the potential
Bm D/A
To forgo the knowledge
E E9 E E9
Of what can be attained as long
E E9 E
As nothing's ever gained
[Bridge]
F# F#aug Bm Bm/A
I can't tell you what's in secret step five
C C/B C/A C/G D E7
You will know when you're no longer alive
[Verse 3]
A D A E
Inhume your gloom within a tomb
A D A E
Confine your mind behind a line
A D A E
There's only doom outside your room
A D A E
Confine your mind behind a line
[Chorus]
F#m A/E
Nine secret steps
D A/C#
To the key to the door that you'll
Bm D/A E
Throw in the well and let go
E9 E E9
Of all your thwarted dreams
E E9 E E9
Let go of all your thwarted dreams
E E9 E E9
Let go of all your thwarted dreams
E E9 E
Of all your thwarted dreams
