Wonderful Remark

[Intro]
C#  G#  F#  C#  2x


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


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


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


[Interlude]
G#  F#  C#  2x


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


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


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


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

G#  F#  C#  2x
