[Verse 1]

Bm7                   A             Em7
The heart went in two ways and the brain has gone in stereo
Bm7         F#m7
Invent and reinvest
     Em7
What do we know?

(What do we know?)
Bm7          A
Why do we do it?
    Em7
Not enough to carry on alone
Bm7            F#m7            Em7
What's left of simple life and beauty all around?

[Refrain]

G                                 Em7
Left in the arms of the living, I shake
Bm7               F#m7
Left in the cold
G                    Em7
A cut upon the skin
             Bm7                    F#m7
They’re always sharp in the beginning
G                                     Em7
Where is the love in the bend and the break?
Bm7
This is our home
G                   Em7
A cut upon the skin
              Bm7                 A
They’re always sharp in the beginning

[Verse 2]

Bm7                 A
We stick to the two lanes
     Em7
Live on the road
Bm7               F#m7
Shy away from the natural
     Em7
What do we know?

(What do we know?)
Bm7         A            Em7
It's not enough to carry on alone

(That’s why we do it together)
Bm7            F#m7            Em7
What's left of simple life and beauty all around?

[Refrain]

G                                  Em7
Left in the hands of the living, I burn
Bm7             F#m7
But to return
G                        Em7
A sheet upon the sphere
           Bm7                       F#m7
This simple heart is the exterior
G                                     Em7
Where is the love in the bend and the break?
Bm7
This is our home
G                     Em7
A cut upon the skin
              Bm7                 A
They’re always sharp in the beginning

Bm7

[Chorus 1]
            G
Down in the blue
               A
Damaged by the new
           G
Beyond the tide
        Em7
Far from all (Far from all)
G
But this is us this is life
     A
It's suicide
          G                             Em7
We're all ten feet tall rolling in that ball
Bm7
This is us. this is life. suicide.

[Verse 3]

Bm                                    A
The mountain cracks from the kicks we give
Bm                              A            G#m  B  G#m  Em
The plain will split in two and swallow where we live
A              D
(Swallow where we live)
      F#      Bm                                A
We're pushing the mistakes and the love that we take
Bm                              A             G#m  B  G#m  Em
The plain will split in two and swallow where we live
A              D
(Swallow where we live)
      F#     G                                Em7
We're pushing down in a hole right before our eyes
Bm7                             A
The rising heat and the melting ice
G                                    Bm7
Now all we care for is blood and satellites
                          A
(The mountain cracks from all the kicks)
G                                  Em7
The love we take and the grave mistakes
Bm7                                A
The land we rape that's within our wake
G                                      Bm7
And all we strive for is blood and satellites

[Pre-Chorus]

      F#m     Bm
We’re going under
         A    Bm
We’re going under
     A         G#   B  G#m  Em
It's not worth taking the fall
A         D
Not worth losing it all
      F#m     Bm
We’re going under
         A    Bm
We’re going under
     A         G#  B  G#m  Em
We'll drop dead at the end of the fall
A         D
Not worth losing it all
       F#m   Bm
We’re going under
Bm
We're going under

[Instrumental]

[Chorus 2]
            G
Down in the blue
               A
Damaged by the new
           G
Beyond the tide
        Em7
Far from all (Far from all)
G
But this is us this is life
     A
It's suicide
          G                             Em7
We're all ten feet tall rolling in that ball

[Post-Chorus]

Bm7             F#m7
Battered skin under the road
G              F#m           Bm7
Life begins as I corrode (Corrode)
                F#m7
Battered skin under the road
G              F#m          Bm7
Life begins as I corrode (Corrode)

Bm7                            F#m7
Battered skin, battered skin under the road
G              F#m            Bm7
Life begins as I corrode (Corrode)
                               F#m7
Battered skin, battered skin under the road
G              F#m
Life begins as I corrode

[Outro]
             Bm
We're going under
             Bm
We're going under
             Bm
We're going under
