A                              E
 Searching for truth can be a fool's game
A                                    E
 Some people lie right through the smiles
A                            E
 Don't rip the heart off of your sleeve

Chorus:
            A        E           F#m            E
And is it wrong to carry on with all you ever knew?
     A                        E           F#m
The curtain's drawn, you're hanging on to all
                  E
you thought was true
A             E            F#m     E
You know the answer isn't lost on you
A                  E            F#m     E
'Cause I know the answer isn't lost on you
A   E
Ah, ah, ah

You've got your own fight to choose
And the world might kick you when you're down
They count you out, but you refuse
You might lie bleeding on the ground

Chorus:
Close your eyes, realize some hearts can't be sewn
Your only crime is being alive,
you know you're not alone
You are the answer you've been looking for
You are the answer you've been looking for

G                                 D
Sometimes you know that it ain't easy
      A
All alone from the day we're born
G                                   D  
Don't let the bastards steal your soul
                   E
'Cause they don't see you're gold
        A   E
You're gold
(Ah, ah, ah)

A                    E
The world is crazy again
A                         E
She said it's never been sane
E
Oh-oh-oh

Chorus:
Here we are, you and me, trying to make the changes
And I believe I can see a better time
'Cause you are the answer you've been looking for
You are the answer I've been looking for
