Gm          D7 Gm                D7
I don't know      what lies ahead
It's all a mystery man, I heard it said
You do your thing, you do your best
I take a guess at what happen next

Chorus:
A#                   F/A
   All I've got is what I need
Cm                              Gm
   And that's enough, as far as I can see
D#                              A#
   Why should I walk into the great unknown
Cm                             D
   When I can sit here, and throw my bones?

I hear the future is so divine
But I'll just wait until I get a sign
'Cause what I've got here, what I'm holding in my hand
Is better for me than some promised land

Chorus:
   All I've got is what I need
   And that's enough, as far as I can see
   Why should I walk into the great unknown
   When I can sit here, and throw my bones?

What's the rush? Who's to say?
You can't escape tomorrow, it's another day
I'm hanging here, I'm here on solid ground
'Cause heaven's full, or closing down

Chorus:
   All I've got is what I need
   And that's enough, as far as I can see
   Why should I walk into the great unknown
   When I can sit here, and throw my bones?
   Oh yeah
