Method Acting Bright Eyes
There's n[Em]o beginning to the story, a booksh[B7]elf sinks into the sand
C G Fm7 (200230)
And a language learned and forgot, in turn, is studied once again
It's a[Em] shocking bit of footage viewed from a[B7] shitty TV screen
You can[C] squint out into snowy static to[G] m[Fm7]ake out the meaning
And keep on[Em] stretching the antenna hoping tha[B7]t it will come clear
We need some[C] reception, a higher message, just[G] t[Fm7]ell us what to fear
'Cause[Am] I don't[D] know what[G] t[D]omorrow [C]brings
It's[Am] alive [D]with such possib[G]il[D]ities [C]
[Am]All I [D]know is I feel [G]better [D]when I[C] sing
Burdens are[D] lifted from me
That's my voice r[Em]ising[B7] [C] [G]
[Em] [B7] [C] [G] [Em] [B7] [C] [G]
So, Michael,[Em] please keep the tape rolling, boys keep[B7] strumming those guitars
We need a[C] record of our failures, yes, we must[G] d[Fm7]ocument our love
I've[Em] sat too long in my silence, I've grown[B7] too old in my pain
To[C] shed this skin, be born again, it st[G]ar[Fm7]ts with an ending
So[Am] thank you,[D] friends, for the[G] ti[D]me [C]we shared
My love[An] stays with [D]you like sun[G]lig[D]ht a[C]nd air
And though I[An] truly [D]wish I could keep [G]hanging [D]around [C]here
My joy is[D] covering me
Soon, I will disa[Em]ppea[B7]r [C] [G]
[Em] [B7] [C] [G]
[C]It's not a movie
[Em]No private screening
[Am]This method acting
Well, I [D]call that living
It[C]'s like a fountain
[Em]A door has opened
[Am]We have a problem
With [D]no solution
But to[C] love and to be[B7] loved
So[Am] I've made[D] peace with the[G] fal[D]ling[C] leaves
I see[Am] their same [D]fate in my [G]own [D]bo[C]dy
But I won't[Am] be frig[D]htened when I'm[G] awoken[D] from this[C] dream
And r[D]eturned to that which
Gave birth to[Em] me[B7] [C] [G]
[Em]Gav[B7]e b[C]ir[G]th to me
Gave birth to me
Gave birth to me
And the story goes
And the story goes
And it goes on and on and on and on
It's going on and on and on and on
