[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Losing e[C#m7]xpression, facing the au[Bm7]tumn, step up the m[A]orphine, stand by my s[F#m]ide
Boiling re[C#m7]jection, cutting the he[Bm7]avens, planting a ne[A]w one, taking the s[F#m]ky
[Pre-Chorus]
You were the s[D]ilence in my b[A]rain, un[Bm7]settled by the weather [F#m]
We built a k[D]ingdom in the r[A]ain, I t[Bm7]hink we're getting better [F#m]
[Chorus]
Sometimes I w[G]wonder why we bother at a[D]all [A-E]
[D] [A] [E] [,] [D] [,] [A-E] [D] [A] [E] [,] [A]
[Verse 2]
Under im[C#m7]pressions, growing up cr[Bm7]ooked, sideways and u[A]nder, cured by g[F#m]lances
Of unfortunate m[C#m7]emories, I should be loa[Bm7]thing, I couldn't f[A]ind you, and I shouldn't [F#m]care
[Pre-Chorus]
You were the [D]silence in my [A]brain, u[Bm7]unsettled by the weather[F#m]weather
We built a k[D]ingdom in the r[A]ain, I t[Bm7]hink we're getting better [F#m]
[Chorus 2]
Sometimes I w[G]wonder why we bother at a[D]all
Our r[A-]rising [E]sun, s[D]setting in the [A]back of her [E]eye [D]
Our r[A-]rising [E]sun, s[D]setting in the [A]back of her [E]eye [D] [A-E] [D] [A] [E] [,] [D]
Sometimes I w[A-]wonder why we [E]bother at a[D]all [A] [E] [D]
Sometimes I w[A-]wonder why we [E]bother at a[D]all [A] [E] [A]
[Verse 3/Outro]
Grant me a n[C#m7]ew one, I'm growing slow[Bm7]ly, sign of reflectio[A]n, cured by a go[F#m]dess
I'm loaded and r[C#m7]eady, more than I wa[Bm7]nted, step up the m[A]orphine
