Verse:
    A                   B7sus4             Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
I'm trying to tell you something about my life
       A               B7sus4            Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
Maybe give me insight between black and white
        E                               D  
and the best thing you've ever done for me
      E                                D  
is to help me take my life less seriously
               A         B7sus4     Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
It's only life after all
 

      A               B7sus4         Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
     A               B7sus4              Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
and lightness has a call that's hard to hear
      E                              D  
and I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
  E                                D  
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
                      A     D  A
I'm crawling on your shores
 
Chorus:
  E                     Dadd9         A
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
  E                         Dadd9            A
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
        E                               D  
There's more than one answer to these questions
                   A          E  A
pointing me in a crooked line
        E                                D  
and the less I seek my source for some definitive
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
The closer I am to fine
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
The closer I am to fine
 
Verse:
  A                   B7sus4             Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
I went to see the doctor of philosophy
  A                   B7sus4             Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
      E                              D  
He never did marry or see a B-grade movie
       E                              D  
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me
        A                    E             Dadd9        E
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind, got my paper
          A    B7sus4  A
And I was free
 
Chorus:
  E                     Dadd9         A
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
  E                         Dadd9            A
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
        E                               D  
There's more than one answer to these questions
                   A          E  A
pointing me in a crooked line
        E                                D  
and the less I seek my source for some definitive
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
The closer I am to fine
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
The closer I am to fine

 A                   B7sus4             Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m.
 A                   B7sus4             Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2  E
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
      E                              D  
I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
      E                              D  
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
          A    B7sus4  A
I went in seeking clarity
 
Chorus:
  E                     Dadd9         A
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
  E                         Dadd9            A
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
   E                    Dadd9         A
We go to the doctor, we go to the mountains
  E                         Dadd9            A
We look to the children, we drink from the fountains
  E                         Dadd9            A
We go to the bible, we go through the workout
        E                               D  
We read up on revival and we stand up for the lookout
        E                               D  
There's more than one answer to these questions
                   A          E  A
pointing me in a crooked line
        E                                D  
and the less I seek my source for some definitive
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
The closer I am to fine
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E
The closer I am to fine
             A        B7sus4       Dadd9      Esus4 E Esus2 E A
The closer I am to fine
