[D][G][C][Em]

[Verse 1]
[D]All these imper[G]manent thi[C]ngs[Em]
[F]Oh, how they fool me[C]
[Dm]Dominate and rule [Am]me
[F]They keep me [Am]waiting here fore[G]ver

[Verse 2]
[D]All these imper[G]manent thi[C]ngs[Em]
Well, their beau[F]ty's never aging
[C]But the[Dm]ir
worthlessness's en[Am]raging
You know we [F]always [Am]stand
alone when we're [G]together

[Verse 3]
So [Am]why keep [C]hanging [F]on
[Am]To things that nev[C]er stay?
[E]Things that jus[Am]t keep
string[C]in' us along
[F]From [C]day to day
[Am][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]All these imper[G]manent thi[C]ngs[Em]
[F]Present, yet elu[C]sive
[Dm]Passive, yet abus[Am]ive
[F]Tearing out [Am]the heart in utter si[G]lence

[Verse 5]
[D]All these imper[G]manent
[C]things[G]
[F]Well, they point in all dir[C]ections
Like [Dm]secondhand reflec[Am]tions
And they're [F]leading us
[Am]to subtle shades of violence

[Verse 6]
[G]And why[Am] keep han[C]ging on[F]
[Am]To things that nev[C]er stay?
[E]Things that jus[Am]t keep
string[C]in' us along
[F]From [C]day to day

[Verse 7]
[D]All these imper[G]manent thi[C]ngs[G]
Well, they're try[F]ing to convince [C]me
Bap[Dm]tize my soul [Am]and rinse me
[F]Purge my mind of [Am]honesty [G]and fire

[Verse 8]
[D]All these imper[G]manent thi[C]ngs[Em]
Well, they [F]all add up to zero
[C]Make- belie[Dm]ve
that they're my heroes
[Am]Then they fill my mi[F]nd
[Am]with doubt and false desires

[Verse 9]
[G]So why[Am] keep hang[C]ing on[F]
[Am]To things [C]that never stay?
[E]Things that jus[Am]t keep
stringin' us [C]along[F]
From [C]day [Am]to da[G]y, yeah
