Nomeansno
[Intro]
A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7  4x
 
D  A F#m  4x
 
[Verse]
    D    A       F#m
Now if I had the courage
    D      A       F#m
I'd pour into your jar
D       A           F#m              D       A      F#m
All the things that I have heard you whisper in the dark
    D         A       F#m
And when that jar was heavy
          D     A     F#m
With your honey confi-dence
    D      A     F#m                D       A       F#m
I'd put it to my lips and drink its meaning and its sense
    D       A       F#m
Its meaning and its sense
 
[Chorus]
   Em  G  A   F  Em    G  A    C
It has no end so let's pretend it's
B  G F#m
No-o-ow
D  A         F#m
   Let's get started
B  G F#m
No-o-ow
D  A         F#m
   Let's get started
A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7
NOW                                              4x
 
[Verse]
D       A        F#m
Nothing could be plainer
         D           A         F#m
Than the things that have been done
    D         A     F#m        D       A      F#m
And there can be no mystery in what is yet to come
     D        A        F#m
It's now that howls at nothing
     D        A        F#m
It's now that runs and hides
     D        A         F#m                 D        A      F#m
It's now that winds its spineless coils and slithers out of sight
     D      A        F#m
Your cries above the furrow
        D       A      F#m
Draw my fingers like a plow
        D        A         F#m              D        A        F#m
Through tattered ends that twist and bend a-bout the Here and Now
    D       A         F#m
The Here is blind and helpless
    D         A          F#m
And strives a-gainst the dark
    D       A       F#m               D         A      F#m
The Now's a well of shadows where the world has come a-part
    D         A      F#m
The world has come a-part
 
[Chorus]
   Em  G  A   F  Em    G  A    C
It has no end so let's pretend it's
B  G F#m
No-o-ow
D  A         F#m
   Let's get started
B  G F#m
No-o-ow
D  A         F#m
   Let's get started
A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7
NOW                                              4x
 
[Verse]
D        A        F#m
There is precious little
     D           A           F#m
That escapes the powers that be
    D         A          F#m                 D      A     F#m
The eyes that judge, the words that form our meager histo-ries
    D         A         F#m
But when your flood sur-rounds me
         D      A         F#m
When the waters burst and come
    D         A           F#m              D          A      F#m
Who knows the things that I have felt, who knows what I have done
    D    A
And if I had the courage
    D      A       F#m
I'd pour into your jar
D       A      F#m              D       A      F#m
All the things I have heard you whisper in the dark
    D        A       F#m
And when the jar was heavy
          D       A     F#m
With your honeyed confi-dence
    D      A     F#m                D       A       F#m
I'd put it to my lips and drink its meaning and its sense
    D       A       F#m
Its meaning and its sense
 
[Chorus]
   Em  G  A   F  Em    G  A    C
It has no end so let's pretend it's
B  G F#m
No-o-ow
D  A         F#m
   Let's get started
B  G F#m
No-o-ow
D  A         F#m
   Let's get started
A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7 A A A7 A A7
NOW                                              4x
 
[Outro]
D   A   F#m
B   G   Em
