[Intro]
A B C D (4x)
 
[Verse 1]
           A           B              C         D       A G F G
There's a watch in my pocket and its hands are broken
     A       B              C         D       A G F G
The face is blank but the gears are turning
A G C D        A           G         C   D
Confusion is a fundamental state of mind
A                 G               C        D
It doesn't really matter what I'm figuring out
     A             G            C        D
I'm guaranteed to wind up in a state of doubt
 
[Chorus]
     A   G        F        G
And sanity is a full-time job
 A    G             F      E
In a world that is always changing
     A   G       F         G
And sanity is a state of mind
      A     G        F    E
That you believe in, sanity

[Verse 2]
           A           B              C         D       A G F G
There's a shadow on the wall where the paint is peeling
    A       B                C           D       A G F G
My body's moving forward but my mind is reeling
A G C D        A           G         C   D
Depression is a fundamental state of being
A                 G               C        D
It doesn't really matter how my day has turned out
      A             G            C        D
I always end up living in this world of doubt
 
[Chorus]
     A   G        F        G
And sanity is a full-time job
 A    G             F      E
In a world that is always changing
      A   G       F         G
And sanity will make you strong
   A     G        F    E
If you believe in sanity
 
[Chorus]
     A   G        F        G
And sanity is a full-time job
 A    G             F      E
In a world that is always changing
      A   G       F         G
And sanity is a state of mind
      A     G        F    E
That you believe in, sanity
