The Great Puzzle by Jules Shear
The Great Puzzle
Capo:no capo
G Am C G
Once again I have forgotten my final destination after chasing it down too
many suns
C G D
So tonight you and I bring desperation to this highway, and we're not the only
ones
G Am C G
Outside a stillness that could only be summer and we are Mendicino bound
C G D
Feeling out of place as the ship that keeps on forward long after it's run
aground
C D
And I'm thinking ahead too much, but what are we then, when we're not thinking
at all
C D
I've got so many loose ends, dragging behind me, mysteries that want to be
solved
CHORUS:
Am C Am C
Like a maze where you could take a thousand paths, Like all the questions
that it does no good to ask
Am D C G
Some might accept it, some might complain, It's a great puzzle, but you've
gotta like games
G Am C G
Like a candle that's been recently blown out, I can still smell the smoke
C G D
>From a chance turned to missed opportunity, my latest enemy of hope
G Am C G
A gambler knows exactly how much you give away with a smile and it's real
C G D
But I only gamble on myself these days, I prefer the way it feels
C D
And I'm thinking aloud too much, giving too much up, I can't wait to see the
world as it is
C D
And have a whole perception turn from ruins to exception, with the one tiny
detail I miss
CHORUS
ADD:
C G
You've gotta like games, and working them through
D Am G
Figuring out why some win and some lose, and where does that leave me and you
C D
I've met coal miners who hate coal, thieves who hate what they stole, and they
think they've figured it out
C
Rich men who sleep preserved in warmth, who can't be hurt by any storm,
D
And they think they know what life is about
Am C Am C
But it's a maze where you could take a thousand paths It's all the questions
that it does no good to ask
Am D
Some might reject it, some go insane
C G C
It's a great puzzle, but you've gotta like games, It's a great puzzle, but
G CGCG
you've gotta like games
