Dave Matthews Band - The Only Thing

[Intro]
A D A D A D A
D

[Verse 1]
A
All of us we’re always trying to catch up
A
Call just to let me know what you think
A
How is this never quite enough
A
Lost and always trying to get back, can we get back?

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A G A
Oh, call the doctor and the doctor came in
F#m A G A
She said, “Where does it hurt? You know there’s a pill for most everything”
F#m A G A
Close your eyes, open wide, and we’ll make you smile again
F#m A G A E
Some people believe in ghosts and some believe in aliens
E A
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I’m living in
D A Bm
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
A E
Nobody could reach me

[Chorus]
A
If you could crawl out of the skin you’re living in
D A Bm
Like some kinda love just opened you up
A E
You know when you feel it
G A D A D A D
It’s the only thing

[Verse 2]
G A
Oh, don’t you feel like you’re trying to catch up
A
Fear makes you jump a little too quick
A
Time, do we know when it’s too late
A
Always trying to get it back, trying to get it back

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A G A
But remember all the things that used to be real
F#m A G A
Things to help you believe ’cause you wanna make sense of everything
F#m A G A
Then there’s the first time you crack and you think, “Everyone’s laughing at me”
F#m A G A
All at once, you’re a ghost, you’re some kind of alien

[Chorus]
E A
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I’m living in
D A Bm
Crawl out of my mind into the outside
A E
I just want to feel it
A
If you could crawl out of the skin you’re living in
D A Bm
Find some kinda love to open you up
A Em
You know when you feel it
G A
It’s the only thing

[Guitar Solo]
A F#m

[Chorus]
E A
Just wish I could crawl out of the skin I’m living in
D A Bm
Out of my mind into the outside
A E
Nobody could reach me
A
If you could crawl out of the skin you’re living in
D A Bm
Like some kinda love just opened you up
A E
You know when you feel it
G A
It’s the only thing

[Outro]
A D A D A D A
The only thing
