(verse – with riff)
Why do you stare me down?
Am I wrong?
Should I turn and kiss the ground?
And I never felt that way
I ain’t the one and you know I don’t come from such a place
(bridge)
E5
And I didn’t get those things
F#
Things that you can’t grow
E5
You say that it’s all my fault
F#5
And I don’t need to know
E5-F#5
(chorus)

Tell me something I don’t know

And I’ll find that I’m always looking ’round behind me

You said that it’s all been said before
F#5 E5
Now I find that there’s something I don’t know
(verse)
And I hate your attitude
I ain’t scared at all
‘Cause it don’t matter what you do
And I’ll turn around to see the truth
You’re tearing it down, yeah, you’re bringing it down
And it’s all on you
(bridge)
And I didn’t get those things
Things that you can’t grow
You say that it’s all my fault
And I don’t need to know
(chorus)
Tell me something I don’t know
And I’ll find that I’m always looking ’round behind me
You said that it’s all been said before
Now I find that there’s something I don’t know
(solo)
G#5-B5-F#5-E5 (2x)
E5 F#5
And I know
E5
I don’t know
(Rock and roll) F#5
E5 F#5
And I say that
E5
If you break enough glass and there’s no one to hear
F#5
And your heart’s full of hate
‘Cause your mind’s full of fear
(riff)
Let it go
(riff)
So far away
So far away
So far away
Oh so far away
So far away
So far away
