Dm7
Everyone's looking, everyone hides
           Am
Everyone's telling... everyone lies
                     F
They're changing the subject

They're turning away
              Em7         Em
Away from the heart of it all

                Dm7
You say you are happy

That you think this is fun
                    Am
But it's only a firefly to the light of the sun
                F
You say this is living, you feel so alive
                Em7        Em
Well, you know, everything dies

[chorus]
        C
Even my wonder, even my fear
      F                    Dm7
Only amount to a couple of tears
                                      Em
There is a rhythm, it's near and it's far
                     Bb       F
It flows through the heart of us

[Verse 2]
Dm7
Welcome to another day
                   Am
It don't seem that different 'cuz nothing has changed
         F
Try to remember, try to remember
        C                       Em
When we weren't just running in place
            Dm
Reasons for living, never come cheap
              Am
And even your best ones can put me to sleep
          F
What I am saying, trying to say
              Em
Is that there must be a better way

[chorus]
        C
Even my wonder, even my fear
      F                    Dm7
Only amount to a couple of tears
                                      Em
There is a rhythm, it's near and it's far
                     Bb       F
It flows through the heart of us

[Bridge]
                Eb
It's already in you
             Dm7
It's already there
            F                        C
You may disagree, but I don't really care
                  Ab
Did you ever find out
              Bb
You ever find out
              C
What's at the heart of us?
                  Ab
Did you ever find out
              Gm
You ever find out
              F      F   F
What's at the heart?

[Verse 3]
F                        C
Tell me all your wildest dreams
               F                             C
I don't really care you don't know what they mean
                         F        C
Raiding the closets, the skeleton keys
               F               C
You know, it's easier than you think

[chorus]
        C
Even my wonder, even my fear
      F                    Dm7
Only amount to a couple of tears
                                      Em
There is a rhythm, it's near and it's far
                     Bb       F
It flows through the heart of us

[Outro]
                 C
Your reasons for living are all very fine
                   F                               Dm7
They're leaving me cold, though they're not really mine
                  Dm                     C
Did you ever find out, Did you ever find out
              Bb       F
What's at the heart of us?
C
  I don't know
F         Dm7       Dm
  I don't know, oh, oh
    C      F   F
Oh, oh  oh oh
