Verso:
A#D#FA#
Scared of losin' all the time
D#FA#
He wrote it on a letter
D#FA#D#F
He was a friend of mine
A#D#FA#
He heard you could see your future
D#FA#
Inside a glass of water
D#FA#A#D#F
With ripples and the lines
D#FFFF
He asked 'Will I see heaven in mine
( A#D#F ) (2x)
A#D#FA#
Oh that is just the way it was,
D#FA#
and nothing could be better,
D#FA#A#D#F
and nothing ever was.
A#D#FA#
Oh he said you could see your future,
D#FA#
inside a glass of water,
D#FA#A#D#F
With riddles and the rhymes
D#F
'Will I see heaven in mine
FFF
Oh, oh, oh
A#DmGmD#A#DmGmD#
Son don't ask,
A#DmGmD#A#DmGmD#
Neither how full or empty is your glass,
A#DmGmD#A#DmGmD#
Cling to the mast
A#DmGmFD#FD#
Spend your whole life living in your past
FFF
Going nowhere fast
( A#D#F ) (4x)
A#D#FA#
So he wrote it on a wall
D#FA#D#FA#D#F
that the hollowest of halos is no halo at all
A#D#FA#D#FA#
And television selling plastic figurines of leaders
D#FA#D#F
saying nothing at all
D#
And we chime 'Stars in heaven, align!'
FFF
Oh, oh, oh
A#DmGmD#A#DmGmD#
Son don't ask,
A#DmGmD#A#DmGmD#
Neither how full or empty is your glass,
A#DmGmD#A#DmGmD#
Cling to the mast
A#DmGmFD#FD#
Spend your whole life living in your past
FFF
Going nowhere fast
Ponte: D#FGmCmD#FF4F
( A#DmGmD# ) (4x)
( A#FD#A# )
A#F
And what I'll be drinking when we're done?
D#A#
Just glasses of water
