Intro: G C9 Am7 D x2
Well [G]some may say it's not even f[C9]unny
And there you s[Am7]tand not even try[D]ing
They [G]say it is in line with the [C9]ages
Sometimes no[Am7]ise is just your m[D]ind
But the l[C]esson is [G]vague in the[D] light now
Shows a d[C]eer with her [G]mind on the m[D]oor
And now s[G]omething with the sun is just [C9]different
Since they [Am7]shook the earth in [D]1904[G]
Repeat Intro
G (picked) C9 (picked)
And as I lowered down I hear it's a message
Am7 (slam! strum) D
And it's 1902 just telling people to get out
And if t[G]here was just a way I could te[C9]ll them
It's been [Am7]long but you are r[D]ight
And the [C]singing is [G]slow and so [D]quiet
Like the [C]sound when you [G]sweep up the f[D]loor
And now so[G]mething with the dirt is just d[C9]ifferent
Since they [Am7]shook the earth in [D]1904[G]
And when the [Bm]night is young but the [C]bridge is up
Something [G]passing by, I was [C]sure
And the [Bm]only one you can t[C]ell it to
Well it's the [G]only one that ever [D]knows
Repeat Intro
G (picked) C9 (picked)
And since more robbers made to go through my window
Am7 (slam! strum) D7
Here is something so strange and something louder than before
And you're l[G]iving with no light or dire[C9]ction
But damn pr[Am7]ecise and now you k[D]now
When be[C]lieving is h[G]ard but you go n[D]ow
And you f[C]eel what you [G]drag across the f[D]loor
Because so[G]mething with these drills are just d[C9]ifferent
Since they s[Am7]hook the earth in [D]1904[G]
And when the [Bm]night is young but the [C]bridge is up
Something [G]passing by, I was [C]sure
And the [Bm]only one you can t[C]ell it to
Well it's the [G]only one that ever [D]knows
(all picked here on out)
And s[G]ome will say it's not even h[C9]ealthy
But body is [Am7]young and mind is [D7]sure
That so[G]mething is alright with your thi[C9]nking
Since they [Am7]shook the earth in [D]1904[G]
