G Em
My mind's made up to pacing across the floor
G D
no point in staying if we're not saying war
G
I don't mind hanging around
Em G E9 E E9 E
whatever now and what else can I do?
G D G D Em E9 E G
It's a question of you.
G
Thoughts careen till I can't stand up
Em G D
where's the crime in a streak of bad luck?
G
words to pick at, retreat from
Em G E9 E E9 E
words that fester if only to get at the truth
G D G D Em E9 E
It's a question of you.
G
What it all comes down to
D
is a different set of values
G E9 E E9 E
to throw away or mobilize to use -
G
It's a question of you.
G
No time to be singular
Em G D
here's hoping that the feeling gets through
G Em
the sound of sound beginning leads to places
G E9 E E9 E
where reflections break anew -
G D G D Em E9 E
It's a question of you.
G
What it all comes down to
D
is a different set of values
G E9 E E9 E
to throw away or mobilize to use -
G
It's a question of you.
