~VERSE~
D G D
Maybe I've been the problem maybe I'm the one to blame
C G A7sus A7
But even when I turn it off and blame myself the outcome feels the same

I've been thinking maybe I've been partly cloudy maybe I'm the chance of rain
C G A7sus A7
and maybe I'm overcast and maybe all my lucks washed down the drain

C G D
When I look at the stars I see someone else
Em A7sus
When I look at the stars the stars
I feel like myself
~INTERLUDE~ Play second half of Riff 2.
~VERSE~ (Chords are the same as first verse)
Stars looking at a planet watching entropy and pain
And maybe start to wonder how the chaos in our lives could pass as sane
I've been thinking 'bout the meaning of Resistance of a hope beyond my own
And suddenly the infinite and penitent begin to look like home
I've been thinking 'bout everyone everyone you look so empty
~REPEAT CHORUS~
