1. Things get clear when I feel free
   C#mi                         D
   Then what happens next comes easily
   E                              F#mi
   What gentle hands give life to me
             A    G              A
   When your eyes fill with tiny tears

2. When I'm in still you are my life
   When I'm in still you are my life
   So at ease in the midnight sky
   So at ease in the midnight sky
   My insides will look like war
   My insides will look like war
   Paralysed except through my thoughts

   F#mi
R: So sad
   C#mi
   ve and you love
   F#mi
   so sad
                C#mi Cmi

   Hmi           E
   Searching for the dead sea scrolls
   G          F#
   So why, so why so sad

3. My smile as real as a hyena's
   My smile as real as a hyena's
   Burns an express-way to my skull
   Burns an express-way to my skull
   Well I will stick myself together again
   Spirit so low I no longer pretend

R: So why so sad
   You live and you love
   So why so sad
   Dependant on above
   Searching for the dead sea scrolls
   So why, so why so sad

R: So why so sad
   You live and you love
   So why so sad
   You've given all the love
   Searching for the dead sea scrolls
   So why, so why so sad
   So why, so why so sad
   So why, so why so sad
