Bm 
Hunter eyes
     Em               G                Bm
I'm lost and hardly noticed, slight goodbye
   Em                G              Bm
I want to rip your lips off in my mouth
     Em           G              Bm
And even in my greatest moment doubt
     Em             G                 Em
The line between deceit and right now

[Chorus]
Em                 G       D
Simple math, it's how our bodies even got here
Em                G              D
Sinful math, the ebb and flow to multiply
G                   D
What if I was wrong and no one cared to mention
G                   D
What if it was true and all we thought was right was wrong?
G            D
Simple math, the truth cannot be fractioned
C                  G
Either way...

Bm  Bm Em G (x2)

[Verse 2]
    Bm       Em         G                 Bm
I imply to mitigate the guilt, we could align
    Em       G            Bm
A perfectly constructed alibi
             Em                G                     Bm              
To hush the violent guilt that eats and never dies
          Em                  G                 Em
In actual blame, they call me once the dark divide

[Chorus]
Em                 G       D
Simple math, it's why our bodies even lay here
Em                G               D
Sinful math, the truth cannot be fashioned
G                  D
What if you were crazy, would we have to listen then?
G                   D                                   G
What if we've been trying to get to where we've always been?
G               D
What if I was wrong, and started trying to fix it?
G              D 
What if you believed me? Everything is brilliant

G A Bm C#dim D (x4)
Oh, oh, oh

G                  D
What if I've been trying to get to where I've always been?
G               D                                        G
What if we've been trying to get to where we've always been?
G           D
Simple math, believe me, all is brilliant
G                  D
What if we've been trying to kill the noise and silence?

G               D
What if I was wrong and you had never questioned it?
G               D
What if it was true, that all we thought was right, was wrong?
G            D
Simple math, the truth cannot be fractioned
G        D
I imply I've got to get it back then
