The Numbers Game

 VERSE
D
Statistics, get twisted
What kind of life are we living?
Bm           A           D                
Our world is data-driven

Correlation's not causation
The truth is often hidden
My world is data-driven

BRIDGE C D - G  F#/D Em - C D
G                                            A
Got no destination. Distracted by the stations
D                       A                Bm                
Money and crap and those complications
G     A
Still I try, and I I I I

CHORUS G Em C D
D
Got down, but don't know how to do this
Bm
Oh no, gotta hit the digits
G
I eat I sleep I feel
A
I'm living my life, flat out running, running on the running wheel

God knows, I do not to want to do this
All work, however I'll come through this
For life, for family, for pleasure
For now and on and on forever

OUTRO Em C D Em - C D G
Bm                   G
Every time the same
 A                    Bm
Why do I even play?
G                         A              D
I'm losing at the numbers game

VERSE
Bad sampling. Wrong baseline.
Mistakes are not forgiven
When your world is data-driven

Cos of bias, interpretation 
I can't connect or make decisions
When the world is data-driven

BRIDGE
Got no destination. Distracted by the stations        
Money and crap and all those complications
Still I try, and I I I I

CHORUS 
Got down, but don't know how to do this
Oh no,       gotta hit the digits
I eat I sleep I feel
I'm living my life, flat out running, running on the running wheel

God knows, I do not to want to do this
All work, however I'll come through this
For life, for family, for pleasure
For now and on and on forever

Every time the same
Why do I even play?
I'm losing at the numbers game


MIDDLE C Em F#/D G
G                         Bm           A           D            
Gotta think to the future, look a long way deeper
G                         Bm           A                Bm            
Need to ask what my values are, focus as a seeker

G        A       [Stop]       D
On who am I. And why?

CHORUS
