[Intro]
C   D
 
 
[Verse]
C
And I was in the corner
                    D
I was taking my medicine
 
And you were in the corner too
                                 C
But I didn't wanna share it with you
 
How are we ever gonna get any better
                             D
If we're always in the same room?
 
We read she pulled out the tendons
 
And she set them on the river
                           C
Now we know that it isn't true
 
C
We are only ever
                              D
Little sparrows on a mountain side
 
When the wind came up
 
And it blew away her footing
                       C
And it forced her into flight
 
So how are we ever gonna get any better
                         D
Under cover of the same night?
 
We read she pulled out the tendons
 
And she set them on the river
 
Now we know that isn't right
 
 
[Bridge]
C   B        Am    C       B       Am
I'm going to buy a sharper set of knives
 
 
[Chorus]
Em            F#m     C
So whose side are you on?
           D                  Am
To set me loose like Clovis' sons
               C              D
Their mothers bed to lay them on
       Am          D
Whose side are you on?
 
 
[Verse]
C
Caught up in the eye of
                          D
Every storm that passes through
 
If history is beholden to
                         C
A very different kind of truth
 
Then how are we ever gonna get any better
                            D
If we're always in the same room?
 
We read she pulled out the tendons
 
And she set them on the river
 
Now we know that isn't true
 
 
[Bridge]
C    B       Am    C      B      Am
I'm going to buy a keener set of lies
 
 
[Chorus]
Em             F#m     C
And whose side are you on?
          D                  Am
To set me loose like Clovis' sons
              C               D
Their mothers bed to lay them on
      Am           D
Whose side are you on?
 
 
[Middle 8]
    Em
And maybe there has always been
D
Something in the corner hiding
Am
The feeling as a child we had
D
There's something in between the air
Em
And even on the coldest night
D
I generate a heat inside me
Am
And even with the tendon's cut
D
There's something in the corner hiding
 
In between the air
 
 
[Chorus]
Em             F#m     C
And whose side are you on?
          D                  Am
To set me loose like Clovis' sons
              C               D
Their mothers bed to lay them on
      Am           C
Whose side are you on?
      Am           C
Whose side are you on?
      Am           C
Whose side are you on?
 
 
[Outro]
C
I was in the corner
                    D
I was taking my medicine
 
And you were in the corner too
                                  C
But I didn't wanna share it with you
