No Matter What You're Told

 
              
Tuning: Standard 
No capo 
 
'No Matter What You're Told' is a song from Broken Bells new album called 'After The 
Disco'. I couldn't find any lyrics online so I had to listen carefully and try to write the 
lyrics down. I can't really hear what James Mercer is singing at some parts in the song  
so the lyrics aren't a 100 percent correct. I did my best anyway. Feel free to comment 
and rate! 
 
Intro: 
Em - D - Em - G 
Em - D - Am - C 
(x2) 
 
verse 1: 
Em                 D 
You're falling way behind 
Em                               G 
we're given just a little bit of time 
Em                   D 
cause when we're all exposed 
                    Am       C 
do you wanna be the first in line? 
 
Em            D                     Em                      G 
Loves in this crowd, the smoke they blow can make your head pop 
        Em                  D             Am         C 
the new goal is playing its tricks on you again, and again 
 
Chorus: 
G               D 
We blow all our chances thinking  
   G            Em                G 
we know all the answers and so it goes 
            D 
but all the changes, nothing changes 
D 
no matter what you're told 
 
Em - D - Em - G 
Em - D - Am - C 
 
verse 2: 
Em                   D 
So you're picking up signs 
Em                                     G 
you're scared you might be losing your mind 
Em                       D 
and all the hopes of any shots 
Am                      C 
you gotta leave the new behind 
 
Em            D               Em              G 
You're making light of this I know and it's a shame 
Em          D                 Am          C 
that you're silly sentimental heart is to blame 
 
Chorus: 
G               D 
We blow all our chances thinking 
   G            Em                G 
we know all the answers and so it goes 
            D 
but all the changes, nothing changes 
D 
no matter what you're told 
 
Em - D - Em - G 
Em - D - Am - C 
 
G    D    Em 
Aaah Aaah Aaah 
 
Bridge: 
G                                    D 
You don't want the end of it, you're lost and found 
           Em 
you better hold on tight 
G                                D 
I hope that it evens when you're upside down 
           Em 
you better hold on tight 
G                              D 
I don't wanna be here when you hit the ground 
            Em 
you need to hold on tight 
 
Chorus: 
G               D 
We blow all our chances thinking 
   G            Em                G 
we know all the answers and so it goes 
            D 
but all the changes, nothing changes 
D 
no matter what you're told
