What Do You Hear In These Sounds Live Chords

(ver. 1)
Dar Williams
[Intro]
D Bm G Em A (x2)
 
[Verse 1]
  D                      G           A
I don't go to therapy to find out if I'm a freak
  D                         G          A
I go and I find the one and only answer every week
        D                    Bm
And it's just me and all the memories to follow
     G                             Em           A
Down any course that fits within a fifty minute hour
 
[Verse 2]
       D                            G           A
And we fathom all the mysteries, explicit and inherent
     D                        G             A
When I hit a rut, she says to try the other parent
         D                     Bm
And she's so kind, I think she wants to tell me something,
        G                               Em           A
But she knows that its much better if I get it for myself and she says
 
[Chorus]
D         Bm        G                         Em     A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?  And
D         Bm        G                         Em     A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?
 
[Verse 3]
 
      D                        G               A
I say I hear a doubt, with the voice of true believing
        D                         G                  A
And the promises to stay, and the footsteps that are leaving
               D          Bm
And she says "Oh", I say "What?" - she says: "Exactly",
       G                                     Em                 A
I say "What, you think I'm angry - Does that mean you think I'm angry?"
 
[Verse 4]
          D                                   G             A
She says "Look, you come here every week with jigsaw pieces of your past
     D                            G             A
It’s all on little soundbytes and voices out of photographs
          D                      Bm
And that's all yours, that's the guide, that's the map
            G                              Em           A
So tell me, where does the arrow point to? Who invented roses? And
 
[Chorus]
D         Bm        G                         Em     A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?  And
D         Bm        G                         Em     A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, what do you hear in these sounds?
 
[Instrumental]

Bm7
Em7
 
[Bridge]
    G                            A
And when I talk about therapy, I know what people think
        G                             A
That it only makes you selfish and in love with your shrink
    D              Bm
But oh how I loved everybody else
       G                      Em         A
When I finally got to talk so much about myself
 
[Verse 5]
 
    D               G               A
And I wake up and I ask myself what state I'm in
      D                           G       A
And I say well I'm lucky, cause I am like East Berlin
  D                      Bm
I had this wall and what I knew of the free world
         G                               Em                 A
Was that I could see their fireworks and I could hear their radio
 
[Verse 6]
 
      D                               G             A
And I thought that if we met, I would only start confessing
           D                                  G               A
And they'd know that I was scared, they would know that I was guessing
        D                  Bm
But the wall came down and there they stood before me
           G                                      Em          A
With their stumbling and their mumbling and their calling out just like me, and
 
[Chorus 2]
D         Bm            G                   Em     A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, the stories that nobody hears, and
D         Bm                 G                       Em    A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, and I collect these sounds in my ears, and
 
[Outro]
D         Bm        G                           Em     A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, that's what I hear in these sounds, and
D         Bm        G                            Em            A
Oooooooh, aaaaaaah, that's what I hear in these, that's what I hear in these
D   Bm G Em A
sou-ou-ounds (yeah)
D   Bm G Em A
