[Intro]
G C/G G C/G
Bm Dm7 Am
[Verse 1]
G C/G
It shouldn’t be a surprise
G C/G
To know I was here all along

We both saw the signs
Am
Right before us
G C/G
Handle my way through it well
G C/G
We did all that we were told
Bm Dm7
Here’s where it gets so confusing
Am
We are all leaving
[Chorus]
C/G D Dm7 C/G
It’s about knowing where to say you’re wrong
Cm G A
To get it right all the time
C/G G C/G G
Means it’s over
[Verse 2]
G C/G
This wasn’t part of the plan
G C/G
A major flaw in the design
Bm Dm7
Birds tricked into the trees
Am
We’ve imagined
G C/G
Once I was turning around
G C/G
I missed the colors and sounds
Bm Dm7
Fade now, into perfected
Am
Imperfection
[Chorus]

And it’s about knowing where to say you’re wrong
Cm G A
To get it right all the time

Means it’s over, yeah
