Bm 
  Anytime somebody asks 
                             E 
"Where do you think you are?" 
Bm 
  I look for the linear ground 

But I've come too far 


{Refrain} 
       D       C#m              Bm 
It's a hard, a hard thing to discern 
       D    C#m       Bm 
It's a hard lesson to learn 
 

 
Bm 
  Anytime the agent's life 
                       E 
It knows the miniature 
Bm 
  It can keep the time and date 

Nowhere out here in the end 


{Refrain} 
       D       C#m              Bm 
It's a hard, a hard thing to discern 
       D    C#m       Bm 
It's a hard lesson to learn 
 

 
D        Bm          G            Em       D 
 On this search I'll find all the places I need 
       Bm           G           Em         D 
I will look for the love that I knew in my dream 
       Bm            G            Em     D 
What I seek makes me far from wherever I come 
           Bm         G 
Pulling me out of the world 
     Em                             E         Bm   E Bm E 
This world that never, never, never stays the same 
 

 
Bm 
  The compass and the gyroscope 
                       E 
The mirror and the map 
Bm 
  When I ever lost my barance 

I land in someone's lap 


{Refrain} 
       D       C#m              Bm 
It's a hard, a hard thing to discern 
       D    C#m       Bm 
It's a hard lesson to learn 
 
 
Bm 
  Pick up all the maintenance 
                                   E 
It's the spinning 'round the wheel 
Bm 
  One body 'round another 

It's the motion we can feel 


{Refrain} 
       D       C#m              Bm 
It's a hard, a hard thing to discern 
       D    C#m       Bm 
It's a hard lesson to learn

Pulling me out of the world 
     Em                                            E 
This world that never, never, never stays the same 
 

 
E                   G 
 Walking across the ice 
D                        Bm 
Not knowing which way to turn 
C#m                 Bm    E      Bm    E Bm 
And waiting for the sound of the crack  


{Refrain} 
       D       C#m              Bm 
It's a hard, a hard thing to discern 
       D    C#m       Bm

This world that never, never, never stays the same

They really look at me
