  G                       D
  Everyone laughed at her joke
     F#                              Bm
  As if they'd never even heard it before
      G                     D
  And maybe they were truly amused
      F#                         Bm
  But every word she spoke was a bore
      G                           D
  And maybe it's because they had seen
      F#                 Bm
  The previews on the TV screen
        G                            D
  "Well this part is good and that's well understood,
                F#                       Bm
  so you should laugh if you know what I mean"
  
  
  CHORUS
  
                  G(strum once)  D(strum once)
  But it's all relative
  F#                     Bm
  Even if you don't understand
                     G          D
  Well it's all understood
    F#                           Bm
  Especially when you don't understand
                       G(strum once)  D(strum once)
  Then it's all just because
  F#                    Bm
  Even if we don't understand
                        (Fill 1)
  Then let's all just believe

  VERSE 2
  
  G(strum once)            D(strum once)
  Everyone knows what went down
              F#(strum once)           Bm(strum once)
  Because the news was spread all over town
      G(strum once)           D(strum once)
  And fact is only what you believe
      F#(strum once)             Bm(strum once)(w/ Fill 2)
  And fact and fiction work as a team
              G
  It's almost always fiction in the end
      D
  The content begins to bend
       F#                   Bm
  When context is never the same

  CHORUS
  
  VERSE 3
  
  G(strum once)   D(strum once)
  I was reading a book
     F#(strum once)     Bm(strum once) (w/fill 3)
  Or maybe it was a magazine
     G(strum once)              D(strum once)
  Suggestions on where to place faith
     F#(strum once)        Bm(strum once)
  Suggestions on what to believe
        G                          D
  But I read somewhere that you've got to beware
      F#                         Bm
  You can't believe anything you read
          G                            D
  But the Good Book is good and that's well understood
                F#                        Bm
  So don't even question if you know what I mean

  ENDING
      G
  But there you go
  D
  Once again
      F#
  You missed the point
      Bm
  And then you point
       G              D           F#
  your fingers at me
      Bm                       G
  And say that I said not to believe
  
         G
  Ah but there you go once again
      D
  You missed the point
  
  And then you point your
  F#
  Fingers at me
          Bm                     G        D
  And you say that I said not to believe
           F#       Bm
  Well I believe
