Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

( ) x2

Verse 1

All the phones have rung and rung

Theyre off the hook, all but one

And all the mail stacked up inside

Up from the floor, a mile high

And like one would, like a child

Im asking

Like I could knock on your door

Will you let me in?

Chorus 1

And dear God, I found out the same things we learn when We die

I found out the truth is its all a big lie

I find that the words are hard to describe

I tell you Im lost here, awaiting reply

Intro x2

Verse 2

Climbing trees and paper planes

Life as a kid, were all the same

Tears of joy, and sullen hearts

Sticks and stones and broken arms

And like one would, like a child

Im asking

Like I could knock on your door

Will you let me in?

Chorus 2

And dear God, I found out the same things we learn when We die

I found out the truth is its all a big lie

I find that the words are hard to describe

I tell you Im lost here, awaiting reply

I found out whats wrong, and its not you or i

Or anyone else that you chose tonight

It seems like the madness of choice in the life

Has made it unclear if we run or we hide
