        G                      D            Cadd9        G
        Open my books, take in silence, and wait for the dawn

        Cadd9             D     Cadd9               D

                   Cadd9  D  G
        To keep in all    in sight
        
(Intro)

Verse2:
        Form one thought, break it off, take a breath, carry on
        You think you matter so much that your the only one
        In your mind your a star that I can see from afar
        Before you've even begun

(Chorus)

        Em7                 D9sus4
        If you feel it then open your heart
        
        Cadd9                  G   G/F#
        No need to ask it what for
        
        Em7                           D9sus4
            Blood runs cold when it's shut from the sun
        
           Cadd9                     D     Cadd  G
        So open your door and what's more, try
        
(Intro)
        
Verse3:
        Worked for years on their temples to burn them all down
        An angry horde disbelievin' set fire sacred ground
        In its place they built banks, think, fish, and drunk tanks
        And just to tear the sky down


        G  Cadd9  D
           Try

        G       Cadd9  D
           They tried

                   Cadd9  D  Em7
        To conquer all    in sight

                               D9sus4
        Walled their cities as high as they could
        
        Cadd9                    G   G/F#
        Kept them apart from themselves
        
        Em7                     D9sus4
            Fought for ages and raged on the plains
        
             Cadd9           D                 Cadd9
        With reasons misunderstood, but to the common good
        
Keychange:
        A               E                     D             E        A  
E  A
        Raised up their idols protected their own walked on dinosaur 
bones
        
        A                    E                       D
          Spread a pestilent nature from mountain to sky
        
                  G                      Cadd9                    D  
Cadd9  G
        Until the rivers ran dry and the rivers ran dry that they 
owned

(Intro)

Verse4: 
        Watch the lights flash by my window throw ghosts on the wall
        And every room in my house answers back when I call
        Trace the outline within, trust in dreams to begin
        
(Chorus)
        ...to keep it all in sight
(Chorus)
        ...to work it all out
        
        G                Cadd9
        Try if you will, try if they won't
        
             G                         D
        Your damned if you do and your damned if you don't
        
        G                Cadd9
        Try if you will, try if they won't
        
             G                         D
        Your damned if you do and your damned if you don't
        
        G  Cadd9  D  Cadd9  G
           Try...
