The Break

Intro: B5 D5 E5  F#5 E5 D5 B5 D5 E5  F#5 E5 D5 

Verse 
     B5           D5 
They told me that the wiring 
E5              F#5  E5 D5 
Was somehow all mis-fir-ing 
    B5          D5             E5     F#5  E5 D5 
And screwing up the signals in my brain 
A5  B5             D5 
And then they told me chemistry 
E5                F#5    E5 D5 
The juice and not the circuitry 
    B5        D5            A5 B5 
Was mixing up and making me in-sane 


     Em                C9 
What happens when the burn has healed 
        Bm               D 
But the skin has not regrown? 
     Em                Bm/D                   C D/C C 
What happens when the cast, at last, comes off 
                           Am7 Bm7/A Am7 
And then you find the break 
                F#5   A5  B5 
Was always in another bone?

Verse 
     B5         D5 
They tried a million meds and 
E5                  F#5        E5 D5 
They strapped me to their beds and 
     B5                D5 
They shrugged and told me, 
                E5    F#5 E5 D5 
"That's the way it goes" 
A5  B5      D5 
But finally you hit it! 
E5               F#5      E5 D5 
I asked you just what did it 
    B5                D5              A5 B5 
You shrugged and said that no one really knows 


Em                   C9             Bm             D 
What happens if the medicine wasn't really in control? 
     Em              Bm/D                   C D/C C 
What happens if the cut, the burn, the break 
                  Am7 Bm7/A Am7 
Was never in my brain 
                    F#sus       F# 
Or in my blood, but in my soul? 

Outro 
     Em             G9/D                 C9 
What happens if the cut, the burn, the break 
                 Am7 
Was never in my brain 
                    F#m7  E9/G#  Asus 
Or in my blood, but in    my     soul?
