Ones and Zeros Chords & Lyrics by Jack Johnson
Ones and Zeros
guitar chords lyrics
Standard Tuning
Intro: C Bb F C
C
There�s a black hole pulling me in
Bb F
I slowly bend till I see the back of my own sins
C
I stole my soul from myself now I wonder
C
Wonder � is there somebody with a perfect plan
Bb
That goes boom when it�s stamped and we could understand
F C
How the gods of old used to clap their hands to make thunder
C
So we�re clapping and we�re laughing like it was so absurd
Bb
In the future we�ll be laughing at who we were
F C
Right now as man plays god with the land that he plunders
C
To the one unknown no one can know
Bb
nor see That�s resistant to greed
F C
If we listen to time after time, time can never go under
C F G F Am
There�s this vine trying to climb Through the window into my life
Am G F
I don�t mind I don�t mind I don�t mind
C F G F Am
There�s this wine trying to find Its way from the bottle into my mind
Am G F
In my mind In my mind In my mind
Instrumental: C Dm C Bb Am Am F Dm
C
And so this vine is trying to climb Through the window into my life
Bb
To bring me symmetry And memories of a backlit breeze
F C
Back into a dream on the ground Looking up at the sun coming down
C
Into a world of boys and girls Are holding handheld devices
Bb
While they�re eating and they�re sleeping And they�re dreaming of the prices
F C
We�ll be paying down the line When the ice melts maybe it will turn to wine
C
And all the greatest of the heroes started jumping from the books
Bb
They started wearing ones and zeros Looking more and more like crooks
F
They stole the sunlight from the future Took a sip drained half the glass and
C
put it back
C
And a lot of people like to have a feast Not so many could stomach the killing
Bb
Lot of traffic on the streets, so who�s really doing all the drilling
F C
Keep on filling what can never be full My imagination has got a hold on me
C F G F Am
There�s this vine trying to climb Through the window into my life
Am G F
I don�t mind I don�t mind I don�t mind
C F G F Am
There�s this wine trying to find Its way from the bottle into my mind
Am G F
In my mind In my mind In my mind
Outro: ( C Dm C Bb Am Am F Dm )x2
End on: C
