Bb F Cm F Bb Gm Cm F F [Verse 1] Bb Cm F Bb Gm Cm F I forgive my father for I know now no one knows what they are doing Bb F Cm F Bb Gm Cm F God is just the universe patiently reworking what we ruin Eb F Human nature bends its ear and turns its back against the fear that Gm C turns to under-ride our questions Cm F Circling in the suspension [Chorus] Bb F Are we born just to die? Cm F Bb Gm And left the whole time wondering why the world is full of suffering Cm F What makes it all worthwhile? Bb F Are we given just to take? Cm F Has it been a big mistake? Bb Dm Cm F Cause if someone made up all of this, I'd wanna ask them, "Why?" [Intro] Bb F Cm F Bb Gm Cm F [Verse 2] Bb Cm F Bb Gm Cm F I forgive my mother for I know now every vanity's a promise Bb F Cm F Bb Gm Cm F Spirit is the lifelong dirty work of learning to be honest Eb F The infant whines and takes the nip and to the wheel of death she slips Gm C No wonder then we always start off crying Cm F All together too tired of trying [Chorus] Bb F Are we born just to die?

Bb F Are we given just to take? Cm F Has it been a big mistake? Bb Dm Cm F Cause if someone made up all of this, I'd wanna ask them, "Why? Why? Why?"
