Glass Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]We are going nowhere fast
Are we made of glass?
No one [Dm]knows, no [Am]one knows

[Verse 2]
[Am]Play out at the highest level
Something never sung before
Stalk by, human interaction

[Verse 3]
Keep them in their corners
[Dm]We can start and t[Am]urn off everything
It's [D]all [Dm]the s[Am]ame,
[C]don't say I'll lau[Am]gh again

[Verse 4]
Save [Am]me[F]
Oh, come on [Am]and save me
From [C]this [Em]world
[F]Tell me
'Cause I need to [C]know[Em]

[Interlude 1]
I'm not alone
[F][G][Am]

[Verse 5]
[Am]We are taught to watch the puppets
Not the hands controlling
Do you think if we pull out the rug

[Verse 6]
The world would stop revolving?
[Dm]We can start and t[Am]urn of[C]f ever[Am]ything
It's [Dm]all the same,
don't [Am]say [C]I'll laugh again
[Am]

[Verse 7]
[F]Save me
Oh, come on and [Am]save me
From [C]this [Em]world
[F]Save me
Oh, come on and save [Am]me
From [C]this world

[Verse 8]
[Em]Tell [F]me
'Cause I need to know
I'm [C]not alone

[Interlude 2]
[Em][F][G][Am]

[Verse 9]
We are going [Am]nowhere fast
Are we made of glass?

[Verse 10]
No one knows, no one knows
[Am]A wise man told [Dm]me that we
[Am]are born with wings
[Dm]But neve[Am]r taught to fly
[Dm]Doesn't that[Am] make you wonder why
Is it to prevent us from falling
out of the [Dm]sky
Or is it to [Am]stop us from soaring [Dm]too h[Am]igh
So let me ask you this
[Dm]Are you runn[Am]ing around in a circle,
going [Em]nowhere [Am]fast?
'Cause when you look at the
man in [Dm]the mirror
[Am]He's made of nothing but
[Dm]glass
[Am]You're never aware that mountain
[Dm]s don't move [Am]themselves
Tectonic plates make them [Dm]shift
That all it took [Am]was a staff
to part the Red Sea
All it took was a bus to Montgomery
[Dm]A single wom[Am]an who refused
to give up her seat
We fought an entire [Dm]army with a bouquet
of flowers back [Am]in the '70's
But now you're taught to remain without
will un[Dm]til you run out of energy
[Am]Afraid that if you strive for an ideal
you end up like a Kennedy
It's like being on a treadmill every day
but never losing any weight
'Cause to see success the food before
you digest has to change
We're stressed and high,
[Am]get depressed and die
But still afraid to question [Am]why
One of the biggest criminals I ever
met wore a suit and tie
When did we stop believing? When
[Am]did we stop marching?
When did we stop chanting?
