Intro: F(no 3) Fmaj7 Gm7 A#+2
Am7 C A#+2
F Fmaj7They say that these are not the best of times
Gm7 A#+2 F Fmaj7 Gm7 A#+2But they're the only times I've ever known
F Fmaj7 Gm7And I believe there is a time for meditation
A#+2 C G CIn cathedrals of our own
A7 Dm C A#+2 FNow I've seen that sad surrender in my lover's eyes
G7sus G7 Csus CAnd I can only stand apart and sympathize
A# F Gm7For we are always what our situations hand us
C A#+2 D# A#It's either sadness or euphoria
 
So we'll argue and we'll compromise
And realize that nothing's ever changed
For all our mutual experience
Out separate conclusions are the same.
Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity
Our reason coexists with our insanity
And though we choose between reality and madness
It's either sadness or euphoria
 
Dm C A#+2 FBow thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies
G7sus G7 Csus CPerhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies
A# F Gm7And as we stand upon the ledges of our lives
C A#+2 D# A#With our respective similarities
C FIt's either sadness or euphoria.
