 When  you find what matters is what  you feel,
 It  arrives and it  disappears.
 Drivin'  down 70-44  highway,
 There's  a beach there  known for cancer waiting to happen.
 When  you're out across the  county line,
 The  news travels slower than a ten-second  buzz.
   But only you'll  ever know,
   As day by day  disappears.
   Only you'll  ever know.
 And it's hard enough soakin' up billboard signs,
 They scorch and drown alive, never knowing why.
 The levee gates are open wide,
 There's a cough in the water and it's runnin' into town.
 Bright eyes don't change, stay the same,
 There must be an answer for what keeps it going wrong.
   But only you'll  ever know,
   As day by day  disappears.
   Only you'll  ever know,  only you'll ever know,
   As day by day  disappears,
   Only you  ever know.

W[D]hen you find what matters is wh[Am7]at you feel,

I[C]t arrives and it[D] disappears.

D[D]rivin' down [Am7]70-44 highway,

T[C]here's a beach ther[D]e known for cancer waiting to happen.

W[D]hen you're out across t[Am7]he county line,

T[C]he news travels slower than a ten-[D]second buzz.

 [Em] But only yo[G]u'll ever kno[F]w,

 [Em] As day by da[G]y disappea[F]rs.

 [Em] Only yo[F]u'll ever kno[D]w.     [Am7]           [C]               [D]

And it's hard enough soakin' up billboard signs,
They scorch and drown alive, never knowing why.
The levee gates are open wide,
There's a cough in the water and it's runnin' into town.
Bright eyes don't change, stay the same,
There must be an answer for what keeps it going wrong.

 [Em] But only yo[G]u'll ever kno[F]w,

 [Em] As day by da[G]y disappea[F]rs.

 [Em] Only yo[F]u'll ever kno[G]w, only you'll ever know[F],

 [Em] As day by da[G]y disappea[F]rs,

 [Em] Only yo[F]u ever kno[D]w.     [Am7]           [C]               [D]
