Chorus:
           Dm   C
I work all night
        A#   Am
I do my thing
             Gm Dm
Just killin' time
        Em   A
Need a friend
           Dm   C
Is this my life?
             A#  Am
Beginning or end?
       Gm       Dm
Can I start again?
        Em     A
Can we start again?

          Dm               C
There's a new moon on the rise
          A#             Am
Turn the tide, turn the tide
          Gm              F
I've been walking a thin line
             Em             A
Between the Earth and the sky

Dm                       C
Why do my realities take over all my dreams?
A#                               Am
Why does all the purest love get filtered
through machines?
Gm                                F
Gimme something good that's even better than
it seems
Em                                Am
Why does all the purest love get filtered
            A
through machines?

Chorus:
           Dm                 C
I work all night (I work all night)
         A#             Am
I do my thing (I do my thing)
              Gm                 F
Just killin' time (Just killin' time)
         Em        Am
Need a friend (A friend)
            Dm   C
Is this my life?
             A#                 Am
Beginning or end? (Beginning or end?)
       Gm                    F
Can I start again? (Can we begin again?)
        Em                    Am     A
Can we start again? (Can we begin again?)

There's a new sun in the sky
Where are you? Where am I?
Have you been looking like I've been looking
for a reason or a sign?
Oh, why? Oh, why?

Why do my realities take over all my dreams?
Why does all the purest love get filtered
through machines?
Give me something good that's even better
than it seems
Why does all the purest love get filtered
through machines?

Chorus

Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Can we begin?)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Ooh, the start)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again?
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again?
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Who we were, killing time)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (We're just killing time)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Can we begin again? Again?)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Again?)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (I work all night)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Do my thing; can we begin?)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Just killin' time)
Can we begin again and be who we were at the start,
at the start again? (Too hard, all night, all night)
Can we begin again? (I work too hard, oh)
Can we begin again? (Beginning or end? Woah)
Can we begin again? (Moving time)
Can we begin again? (Moving time)

Why do my realities take over all my dreams?
Why does all the purest love get filtered through
machines?
Give me something good that's even better than it
seems
Why does all the purest love get filtered through
machines?
Can we begin again?
Can we begin again?
Can we begin again?
Can we begin again?
