[Verse 1]
E                   D
One-way streets and square one
    E             F#m               A
The answers don't come from any one direction
E                        D
Not a care in the world, no better way to go
     E    F#m   B              A
It's fine here, watching it go down
A        B
Half the trouble's in the asking
      A                   B            A
And I know you're not the kind to wait around
       A               B
Taking chances with no intent to make a killing
A        E                   B
Too much living is no way to die

[Chorus]
A   E
Loose string
F#m                       A
Find the pieces don't fit in
G#m   E
Loose string
E                 A
Coming up for air again and again
G#m   E
Loose string
E              F#m           E
Too much living is no way to die

[Verse 2]
E       D
See the ground sinking 'round
E            F#m     A
Tomorrow's a card to play
E                      A
Same old words heard in storms
        E
Repeated doom
         F#m       A    B
Too many rules, it will bleed you dry
A                         B
Half the trouble's in the asking
      A                   E           B
And I know you're not the kind to wait around
       A               B
Taking chances with no intent to make a killing
A        E                   B
Too much living is no way to die

[Chorus]
A   E
Loose string
C#m                       A
Find the pieces don't fit in
G#m   E
Loose string
E                 A
Coming up for air again and again
G#m   E
Loose string
E              F#m           E
Too much living is no way to die

A  E  F#m

[Verse 3]
E                        D
Said you haven't seen it all
     E               F#m        A         B
Just keep on searching for just one single reason
A                  B
Half the trouble's in the asking
    A             E                B
And I know you're not the kind to wait around
A                      B
Taking chances with no intent to make a killing
A                  E         B
Too much living is no way to die

[Chorus]
A   E
Loose string
F#m                       A
Find the pieces don't fit in
G#m   E
Loose string
E                 A
Coming up for air again and again
E      A
Loose string
G#m   E
Loose string
