Tuning: EADGBe


Intro:
                                    
                                    
                                   
                                   

                                    
Sometimes you hold the world in your hands
                                       
Sometimes the world it baffles you with plans
                                 
Some days you drift oh so easy and free
                                     
Some nights you sleep in blissful harmony

                                   
How do we leave the wreckage of our lives?
                                    
How do you leave the past out in the night?
                                            
Don't throw away the pictures that give you a smile
                                          
Don't throw away the memories that make you cry

      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers

                                  

                                    
I know that I could learn a little harder
                                       
There's so much that I want to read and know
                     
But maybe I'm a little lazy
                           
Maybe I don't really want to know

      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

                           
                           
                          
                          


                                      
The more I learn of history the more I hate it
                                                   
'Cos we're repeating things we did a thousand years ago
                                       
We're building palaces of fortune in the sky
                                    
There's an underclass dying whilst we smile

      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)
      
I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

Am                         C (Play many times)

I don't wanna
I don't wanna)
