 A        F#m7      Dmaj7 Dm6/E   A
There's a monster growing in our heads
      F#m7        Dmaj7  Dm6/E        C
Raised up on the wicked things we've said
   Am7    Fmaj7    E7      A F#m7
A great divide between us now
 Dmaj7   Dm6/E       Am B7/A E7
Something we should know

Chorus:
E7            A      F#m7 Dmaj7
There's something to remember
    Dm6/E         A    F#m7 Dmaj7
And something to forget
   Dm6/E    A      F#m7 Dmaj7
As long as we remember
         Dm6/E     A    F#m7
There's something to regret
  Dmaj7   Dm6/E      Am B7/A E7
Something we should know

There's a mountain higher than we knew
It's high but such a bitter view

A great divide between us now
Something we should know

Chorus:
There's something to remember
And something to forget
As long as we remember
There's something to regret

  Am7     Fmaj7  E7/D       C
A great divide between us now
   Am7            Fmaj7  E7         Am B7/A E7
On different sides of a great divide

Chorus:
There's something to remember
And something to forget
As long as we remember
There's something to regret
Something we should know
