'No Matter What You're Told' is a song from Broken Bells new album called 'After The
Disco'. I couldn't find any lyrics online so I had to listen carefully and try to write the
lyrics down. I can't really hear what James Mercer is singing at some parts in the song
so the lyrics aren't a 100 percent correct. I did my best anyway. Feel free to comment
and rate!
Intro:
Em - D - Em - G
Em - D - Am - C
(x2)
Verse 1:
Em D
You're falling way behind
Em G
well give it just a little bit of time
Em D
'cause when we're all exposed
Am C
do you wanna be the first in line?
Em D Em G
Those bewitching crowds, the smoke they blow can make your head pop
Em D Am C
the ego is playing its tricks on you again, and again
Chorus:
G D
We'll blow all our chances thinking
G Em G
we know all the answers and so it goes
D
with all the changes, nothing changes
D
no matter what you're told
Em - D - Em - G
Em - D - Am - C
Verse 2:
Em D
So you're picking up signs
Em G
you're scared you might be losing your mind
Em D
and all the hopes of any shot you've got
Am C
are leaving you behind
Em D Em G
You're making light of this I know and it's a shame
Em D Am C
that your silly sentimental heart is to blame
Chorus:
G D
We'll blow all our chances thinking
G Em G
we know all the answers and so it goes
D
with all the changes, nothing changes
D
no matter what you're told
Em - D - Em - G
Em - D - Am - C
G D Em
Aaah Aaah Aaah
Bridge:
G D
You don't want to end up in the lost and found
Em
you better hold on tight
G D
odds will turn to events when you're upside down
Em
you've got to hold on tight
G D
I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground
Em
you need to hold on tight
Chorus:
G D
We'll blow all our chances thinking
G Em G
we know all the answers and so it goes
D
with all the changes, nothing changes
D
no matter what you're told
