[INTRO]
C/G F C/G (2x)

[VERSE 1]
C/G                                 F                           C/G
One way or another, it’s gonna make its presence known
C/G                                                                                                 G
From one monkey to another, you can’t lose what you don’t own
F                                 F                                 G                     Am
It’s okay if you get anxious, just please don’t call the cops
F                                 C/G                 G                 C/G
There’s a couple things I’m sure of and a whole lot more I’m not

[VERSE 2]
C/G                                 F                                                 G
There’s a sentimental value to the memory of love
C/G                                                                 G
It’s a pretty looking rainbow, what does it remind you of
F                 F                                                 G                                 Am
Is it somewhere there’s a heart of gold that’s never gonna rust
F                                 C/G                 G                                 C/G
Or it’s a hard rain honey but it’s never gonna flood

[VERSE 3]
C/G                                 F                                 C/G
Despite all my reservations, I’ve been doing this for years
C/G                                                                 G
Hoping that some magic touch would finally make it clear
F                                 F                 G                                 Am
But when it all comes crashing down, I’m still standing here
F                                 C/G                               G                 C/G
Looking at the same face, in the same place, just a different kind of mirror

[VERSE 4]
C/G                 F                                 C/G
Nothing lasts forever and every other trope
C/G                                                                 G
I guess it just depends on how much DMT you smoked
F                                 F                                 G                 Am
But when I think of Robin Williams at the end of his rope
F                                                 C/G                                 G                                 C/G
It makes no difference what you’re making, the reaper makes the final joke

[VERSE 5]
C/G F                                                 C/G
So I gather my impressions of the universal sigh
C/G                                                                 G
And hope that someone’s listening to their radio tonight
F                 F                 G                 Am
Though it doesn’t really matter with so many come before
F                                 C/G                 G                 C/G
And who the hell are we fooling, no one buys records any more
