[Verse 1]
          C
When they sat down at the Ouija board
          F/C
He could feel her fingers move
G                    C              F
Trying to find their future with her hands
C F F

C
Turning to the spirit world
        F/C
Looking for some cosmic clue
     G                  C               F
In a language that they both might understand
C F F

               G             C
But she wasn't looking for a remedy
    F
She knew she'd break his heart
         G            C
She just wanted to go quietly
            F
Like it was written in the stars
       G                C
But it all comes out eventually
          F
No matter how hard you resist
            G           C
That might be a harsh reality
               D               F
But that's the only kind there is

[Chorus]
C/E                             F
  It's not the whisper in your ear
         G              Am
It's not banging of the drum
C/E                             F
  It's not the person that you were
             G             Am
It's not the person you become
C/E                             F
  It's not where you're headed to
             G                   Am
And it's not where you're coming from
C/E                             F
  The only life you're gonna live
                   G            Am 
Is out between the zero and the one
C/E           F                  G            Am
              Out between the zero and the one

[Verse 2]
         C
When she shuffled all the tarot cards
         F/C
He could see her stack the deck
    G                   C             F
But still turned up the tower and the moon
C F F

       C
Well, she did try to disregard
                F/C
And clutch that crystal 'round her neck
           G           C                  F
While they both felt a presence leave the room
C F F

       G               C
And he finally saw the difference
              F
Between her history and her past
               G              C
How she's been looking for deliverance
               F
From something she will never grasp
         G                C
She even had the nerve to tell him
         F
That she tried hard as she could
              G           C
It's like she never even loved him
               D               F
As much as the reasons why she should

[Chorus]
C/E                             F
  It's not the whisper in your ear
         G              Am
It's not banging of the drum
C/E                             F
  It's not the person that you were
             G             Am
It's not the person you become
C/E                             F
  It's not where you're headed to
             G                   Am
And it's not where you're coming from
C/E                             F
  The only life you're gonna live
                   G            Am 
Is out between the zero and the one

[Post-Chorus]
C/E           F                  G            Am
              Out between the zero and the one
C/E           F                  G            Am
              Out between the zero and the one
C/E           F                  G            Am
              Out between the zero and the one
C/E           F                  G            Am

[Verse 3]
            G              C
So she must stake the superstitions
        F
For the excuses that she needs
            G              C
To keep explaining her condition
           F
To the few friends, she could keep
               G            C
But don't give them another thought
           F
There's no need for us to dwell
         G                 C
They are fine and they are not
          D          F
Just like everybody else
           D         F
Yeah, like everybody else

[Chorus]
C/E                             F
  It's not the whisper in your ear
         G              Am
It's not banging of the drum
C/E                             F
  It's not the person that you were
             G             Am
It's not the person you become
C/E                             F
  It's not where you're headed to
             G                   Am
And it's not where you're coming from
C/E                             F
  The only life you're gonna live
                   G            Am 
Is out between the zero and the one

[Post-Chorus]
C/E           F                  G            Am
              Out between the zero and the one
C/E           F                  G            Am
              Out between the zero and the one
