    E6   B      E    F#      A    E/F#  B*  A*


VERSE 1:
E6         B   E
I've got a hunger
F#          A
Twisting my stomach into knots.
E6        B          E           F#   A
  That my tongue has tied off.

E6         B    E
My brain's repeating
F#                 A
"If you've got an impulse let it out"
E6         B     E       F#      A
  But they never make it past my mouth.

CHORUS:
E*    E/F#
Bop ba
B*          A*
This is the sound of settling
E*    E/F#    B*       A*
Bop ba Bop ba
(x2)

INTERLUDE:
E6  B   E   F#  A (x2)


VERSE 2:
E6           B      E
Our youth is fleeting,
F#          A
Old age is just around the bend.
E6      B          E     F#    A
  And I can't wait to go gray.

E6               B    E
And I'll sit and wonder
F#        A
 Of every love that could've been.
E6           B          E         F#           A
 If I'd only thought of something charming to say.

CHORUS:
E*    E/F#
Bop ba
B*          A*
This is the sound of settling
E*    E/F#    B*       A*
Bop ba Bop ba
(x4)

E6         B   E
I've got a hunger
F#           A (let ring)
twisting my stomach into knots.

END


During the final chorus, after you repeat it twice, the third and fourth times can also
