[Verse 1]
Ab                    G
Tied down against the tracks
                     Cm
Screaming in silent, black and white
                                Fm
Why'd you trust us? We are such villains
                           Bb
We would tell ourselves anything
                    A      Ab
We want to hear, if we are willing
                G
To listen is to learn
                            Cm
Then too much is what we deserve
                                 Fm
And how come when we say that we do we don't
                    Bb
Pray to anybody you want we won't
         A     Ab
oh oh oh oh oh oh
 
 
[Chorus]
Ab                                      Bb
But if we're the ones to blame then the fruit
                                 Ab
Shouldn't taste so good, we were used
                                   Bb
Used to thinking we got nothing to lose
                                Ab
We're losing everything but the truth
                        Bb
Walking straight into a roadblock
 
Ending left, here bending
Ab                                             Bb
Your point of view was chosen by the serpent's ruse
 
 
[Verse 2]
Ab                    G
With all its do's and don'ts
                       Cm
The future is an empty promise
                            Fm
Unconcerned and so tired of waiting
                        Bb
We could sell it wooden horses
                       A         Ab
Full of nightmares and when they open
                    G
This all might recompose
                             Cm
There's no going back to the good old days
                                Fm
It's just a phase bring in some new life
              Bb                    A       Ab
Archaism is a dusty road leading us back to nowhere
 
 
[Chorus]
Ab                                      Bb
But if we're the ones to blame then the fruit
                                 Ab
Shouldn't taste so good, we were used
                                   Bb
Used to thinking we got nothing to lose
                                Ab
We're losing everything but the truth
                        Bb
Walking straight into a roadblock
 
Ending left, here bending
Ab                                             Bb
Your point of view was chosen by the serpent's ruse
         A     Ab
oh oh oh oh oh oh
 
[Outro]
Ab                      Bb
How come when we say we do we don't
Ab                      Bb
How come when we say we will we won't
Ab                      Bb
How come when we say we do we don't
Ab                      Bb             Ab
How come when we say we will we won't
