  D5  G5  F5 D5  D   D5   G5 F5 D5  D
 You know I lose,   you know I win

  D5  G5  F5 G6
 You know I called for the shape I'm in

 It's just a game    you see me play

      F/A          C          G6               D
 Only real in the way that I feel from day to day


 Although the answer is not unknown
 I'm searchin', searchin', and how I've grown
 It's not all right, to say good-bye
 And the world on a string doesn't mean a thing

 No the world on a string doesn't mean a thing
 Only real in the way that I feel from day to day

You know I lose, you know I win
You know I call for the shape I'm in
It's just a game you see me play
Only real in the way
That I feel from day to day
Although the answer is not unknown
I'm searchin', searchin', and how I've grown
It's not all right to say goodbye
And the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
(It's only real) in the way
That I feel from day to day
(No, the world) on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
(It's only real)
