The Break Chords

(ver. 1)
Next To Normal
[Intro]
B5 D5 E5  F#5 E5 D5 B5 D5 E5  F#5 E5 D5

[Verse]
     B5           D5
They told me that the wiring
E5              F#5  E5 D5
Was somehow all mis-fir-ing
    B5          D5             E5     F#5  E5 D5
And screwing up the signals in my brain
A5  B5             D5
And then they told me chemistry
E5                F#5    E5 D5
The juice and not the circuitry
    B5        D5            A5 B5
Was mixing up and making me in-sane

[Chorus]
     Em                C9
What happens when the burn has healed
        Bm               D
But the skin has not regrown?
     Em                Bm/D                   C D/C C
What happens when the cast, at last, comes off
                           Am7 Bm7/A Am7
And then you find the break
                F#5   A5  B5
Was always in another bone?

C#5 B5 A5 F#5 A5 E5 F#5

[Verse]
     B5         D5
They tried a million meds and
E5                  F#5        E5 D5
They strapped me to their beds and
     B5                D5
They shrugged and told me,
                E5    F#5 E5 D5
"That's the way it goes"
A5  B5      D5
But finally you hit it!
E5               F#5      E5 D5
I asked you just what did it
    B5                D5              A5 B5
You shrugged and said that no one really knows

[Chorus]
Em                   C9             Bm             D
What happens if the medicine wasn't really in control?
     Em              Bm/D                   C D/C C
What happens if the cut, the burn, the break
                  Am7 Bm7/A Am7
Was never in my brain
                    F#sus       F#
Or in my blood, but in my soul?

[Outro]
     Em             Gmaj9/D                 C9
What happens if the cut, the burn, the break
                 Am7
Was never in my brain
                    F#m7  E9/G#  Asus
Or in my blood, but in    my     soul?

F#m7  E9/G#  Asus
