Verse:

E

Nothing is here for me

Bm

Just the music on the inside

D

Meaning nothing to the outside

A E E7-E6-E#5

Looking blankly at me

Chorus:

D

We're golden

E

A symmetry that brings us close

D D/F#

Can't you see we're golden?

E

It's only us that see it

D

We're golden

E*

Telepathy that bonds us close

D A

Can't you see we're golden?

E E7-E6-E#5

Or do I have to spell it?
