DG5Em
[Verse 1]
DG5A
I don't go to therapy to find out if I'm a freak
DG5A
I go and I find the one and only answer every week
D
And it's just me and all the memories to follow
G5Em
Down any course that fits within a fifty minute hour
[Verse 2]
DG5A
And we fathom all the mysteries, explicit and inherent
DG5A
When I hit a rut, she says to try the other parent
DG5
And she's so kind, I think she wants to tell me something,
EmA
But she knows that its much better if I get it for myself and she says
[Chorus]
DG5Em
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds? And
DG5Em
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?
[Verse 3]
DG5A
I say I hear a doubt, with the voice of true believing
DG5A
And the promises to stay, and the footsteps that are leaving
DG5A
And she says "Oh", I say "What?" - she says: "Exactly",
G5Em
I say "What, you think I'm angry - Does that mean you think I'm angry?"
[Verse 4]
DG5A
She says "Look, you come here every week with jigsaw pieces of your past
DG5A
It’s all on little soundbytes and voices out of photographs
D
And that's all yours, that's the guide, that's the map
G5EmA
So tell me, where does the arrow point to? Who invented roses? and
[Chorus]
DG5Em
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?
DG5Em
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?
[Instrumental]
D
[Bridge]
G5A
And when I talk about therapy, I know what people think
G5A
That it only makes you selfish and in love with your shrink
DG5
But Oh how I loved everybody else
EmA
When I finally got to talk so much about myself
[Verse 5]
DG5A
And I wake up and I ask myself what state I'm in
DG5A
And I say well I'm lucky, cause I am like East Berlin
DG5A
I had this wall and what I knew of the free world
G5EmA
Was that I could see their fireworks and I could hear their radio
[Verse 6]
DG5A
And I thought that if we met, I would only start confessing
DG5A
And they'd know that I was scared, they would know that I was guessing
DG5
But the wall came down and there they stood before me
EmA
With their stumbling and their mumbling and their calling out just like me, and
[Chorus 2, Outro]
DG5EmA
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, The stories that nobody hears, and
DG5EmA
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, and I collect these sounds in my ears, and
DG5Em
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, that's what I hear in these sounds, and
DG5Em
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, that's what I hear in these, that's what I hear in these
DG5EmAGG5DG
sou-ou-ounds (yeah)
