The acoustic version of this song was not in the right time, so I put chords to all of
the lyrics and fixed the time. The G chord prior to the Am is more of a quick passing
chord. Have fun!
[Intro]
F F G Am G x2
[Verse 1]
F
I ponder of something great
F G
My lungs will fill and then deflate
Am
They fill with fire
Exhale desire
G
I know it's dire
My time today
[Hook]
F
I have these thoughts
F
So often I ought
To replace that slot
G Am
With what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole
G
My car radio
F
And now I just sit in silence
[Verse 2]
F G
Sometimes quiet is violent
Am
I find it hard to hide it
G
My pride is no longer inside
F
It's on my sleeve
My skin will scream
F
Reminding me of
G Am
Who I killed inside my dream
G
I hate this car that I'm driving
F
There's no hiding for me
F
I'm forced to deal with what I feel
G Am
There is no distraction to mask what is real
G
I could pull the steering wheel
[Hook]
F
I have these thoughts
F
So often I ought
To replace that slot
G Am
With what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole
G
My car radio
F
And now I just sit in silence
[Break]
F F G Am G x4
[Verse 3]
F
I ponder of something terrifying
F G
'Cause this time there's no sound to hide behind
Am
I find over the course of our human existence
G
One thing consists of consistence
F
And it's that we're all battling fear
F G
Oh dear, I don't know if we know why we're here
Am
Oh my,
Too deep
Please stop thinking
G
I liked it better when my car had sound
F
There are things we can do
F G
But from the things that work there are only two
Am
And from the two that we choose to do
G
Peace will win
And fear will lose
F
There's faith and there's sleep
F G
We need to pick one please because
Am
Faith is to be awake
G
And to be awake is for us to think
F
And for us to think is to be alive
F
And I will try with every rhyme
G Am
To come across like I am dying
G F
To let you know you need to try to think
[Hook]
I have these thoughts
F
So often I ought
To replace that slot
G Am
With what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole
G
My car radio
F
And now I just sit in silence
[Break]
F F G Am G x 4
[Verse 4]
F
I ponder of something great
F G
My lungs will fill and then deflate
Am
They fill with fire
Exhale desire
G
I know it's dire
My time today
[Hook]
F
I have these thoughts
F
So often I ought
To replace that slot
G Am
With what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole
G
My car radio
F
And now I just sit in silence
