(Telling Stories)


: = "repeat"

Intro:

:Am F C C:


Verse 1:

Am           F
 Touched the mirror
C                         C
 Broke the surface of the water
Am           F
 Saw my true self
C              C
 All illusions shattered


Am F C C


Chorus:

Am            F          C       C
 Money's only paper only ink
Am                F                   C      C
 We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
Am             F
 How the world turns 
              C
 Who made the sun
              C
 Who owns the sea
Am            F                       C       C
 The world we know will fall piece by piece


:Am F C C:


Verse 2:

Am           F                          C
 Sat down up close to the colored black hole
             C
 Like they'd always told me not to
Am             F                     C
 Saw the one dimension polka dot pacifier
           C
 And all illusions shattered


Am F C C


Chorus:

Am            F          C       C
 Money's only paper only ink
Am                F                   C      C
 We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
Am             F
 How the world turns 
              C
 Who made the sun
              C
 Who owns the sea
Am            F                       C       C
 The world we know will fall piece by piece


:Am F C C:


Verse 3:
 
Am            F      C          C
 Bared myself wholly  heart and body unadorned
Am             F 
 Stripped down solely
C       C
 To the evil and the good
Am       F                  C
 Felt no shame naked to the world
           C
 And all illusions shattered


Am F C C


Chorus:

Am            F          C       C
 Money's only paper only ink
Am                F                   C      C
 We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
Am             F
 How the world turns 
              C
 Who made the sun
              C
 Who owns the sea
Am            F                       C       C
 The world we know will fall piece by piece


:Am F C C:


Verse 4:

Am                 F
 Faced towards the sea
C          C
 Looked to heaven up above
Am        F                    C
 Felt the world revolve around me
              C
 No one could tell me otherwise
Am                 F                         C      C
 But the turbulent waters won't reflect this life
Am        F                C (stop playing)
 Only the sun the moon and sky
(no Chords)
 And all illusions shattered
Am F C           C
       And all illusions shattered 

Am F C C


Chorus:

Am            F          C       C
 Money's only paper only ink
Am                F                   C      C
 We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
Am             F
 How the world turns 
              C
 Who made the sun
              C
 Who owns the sea
Am            F                       C       C
 The world we know will fall piece by piece


:Am F C C:


 Am            F          C       C
