Wonderful Remark

[Intro]
F#  C#  B  F#  2x


[Verse]
F#           C#
How can you stand the silence
B                  F#
That pervades when we all cry
F#           C#
How can you watch the violence
B             F#
That erupts before your eyes
F#           C#
How can you tell us something
B               F#
Just to keep us hangin' on?
F#                   C#
Something that just don't mean nothing
B               F#
When we see it, you are gone


[Pre-Chorus]
B                F#
Clinging to some other rainbow
B                             F#
While we're standing, waiting in the cold
B              F#
Telling us the same old story
D#m              C#
Knowing time is growing old


[Chorus]
C#          B           F#
That was a wonderful remark
C#        B                  F#
I had my eyes closed in the dark
B
I sighed a million sighs
F#                        C#      B     F#
I told a million lies to myself, to myself


[Interlude]
C#  B  F#  2x


[Verse]
F#          C#
How can we listen to you
B                 F#
When we know your talk is cheap?
F#          C#
How can we ever question
B                        F#
Why we give more and you keep?
F#            C#
How can your empty laughter
B                F#
Fill a room like ours with joy
F#                C#
When you're only playing with us
B                 F#
Like a child does with a toy


[Pre-Chorus]
B               F#
How can we ever feel the freedom
B                F#
Or the flame lit by the spark
B               F#
How can we ever come out even
D#m           C#
When reality is stark


[Chorus]
C#          B           F#
That was a wonderful remark
C#        B                  F#
I had my eyes closed in the dark
B
I sighed a million sighs
F#                        C#      B     F#
I told a million lies to myself, to myself


[Outro]
     C#          B     F#
Baby, to myself, to myself
     C#          B     F#
baby, to myself, to myself
   C#      B     F#
to myself, to myself

C#  B  F#  2x
