[Verse 1]
Dm        F      C  G
Your imagination
      Dm          F  C  G
Is in an awful place
Dm               F      C      G
Don't believe in manifestation
     Dm           F  C  G
Your heart'll break
 
 
[Chorus]
F              C
Don't you understand?
     F                G
Your mind is not your friend again
   F                C
It takes you by the hand
F              G
And leaves you nowhere
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Dm              F      C  G
You feel it in your nerves
Dm             F        C  G
It's chokin' out the sun
    Dm          F        C      G
You try in vain to be persuaded
Dm              F  C  G
That it's nothin'
 
 
[Chorus]
F              C
Don't you understand?
     F                G
Your mind is not your friend again
   F                C
It takes you by the hand
F              G
And leaves you nowhere
F              C
You are like a child
       F               G
You're gonna flip your lid again
F              C
Don't you understand?
     F                G      Dm
Your mind is not your friend
 
 
[Verse 3]
F     Am  G     Dm      F
You inherited a fortune
Am        G        Dm   F
From your mother's side
     G             Dm        F Am
Your sister didn't get it at all
G
She survived

[Verse 4]
Dm               F     C  G
Tranquilize the oceans
Dm          F     C  G
Between the poles
       Dm             F     C  G
You're crawling under rocks
    G        Dm     F   C  G
And climbing into holes
 
 
[Chorus]

Don't you understand?

Your mind is not your friend again

It takes you by the hand
F              G
And leaves you nowhere
F              C
You are like a child
       F               G
You're gonna flip your lid again
F              C
Don't you understand?

Your mind is not your friend
