[Bb]
[Gb] [Bb]
[Gb] [Bb]
Broken people get recycled And I hope that I will sometimes withdraw
off our pathways What I thought [Ebm] was my way home
Wasn't the place [Bb] I know I'm not afraid of changing
Certain nothing, certain what we own becomes our prison
My possessions [Gb] will be [Ebm] gone Back to where they [Bb] came from
[Gb] [Abm] [Ab] [Ebm]
Lame, [B] no [Gb] one is to [Abm] blame
[Ebm]
[B] As natural [Gb] as the rain [Abm] that falls [Ebm] It comes [B] to flow [Ebm] again
[Bb] [Ebm]
[Bb] See the rock that you hold on to Is it gonna save you when the earth begins to crumble?
Why do you feel you [Gb] have to [C] hold on?
[Ebm]
Imagine if you [Bb] let
[Gb]
[Abm] [Ebm] Lame, [B] no one [Gb] is to [Abm] blame
[Ab] [Ebm] [B] As natural [Gb] as the rain that [Abm] [Ebm] falls It comes [B] to flow [Bb] again
[Gb] [Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
Hold [Eb] me, [Gb] the weight [Fm] it [Bb] pulls you down
[Gm] The
[Gb] weight [Ebm] it frees you [Fm] from
[Bb]
Don't trust your eyes, it's easy to [Eb]
believe them
[Gb] Know in your heart [Fm] that you [Bb] can't leave your prison
[Gm]
Don't trust your mind, it's not [Gb] always listening
Turn off [Ebm] the light [Fm] and feel the [Bb] ancient rhythm
Don't trust your eyes, it's easy to [Eb] believe them
Know [Gb] in your heart [Fm] that you can't [Bb] leave your prison
[Gb] [Abm] [Ebm]
Lame, [B] no one [Gb] is to [Ab] blame
[Ebm]
[B] As natural [Gb] as the rain
[Abm] [Ebm] It comes to [B] flow [Bb] again
