The Killers - Why Do I Keep Counting?: chords

D#                         A#
There's a plane and I am flying
C#                          B
There's a mountain waiting for me
D#                           A#
Oh these years have been so trying
C#                          B
I don't know if I can use them
       D#                    A#/D
Am I strong enough to be the one?
C#                         B
Will I live to have some children?

Chorus:
D#
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
A#/D
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
     Gm               Cm
If I only knew the answer
               G#       A#   G# A#
I wouldn't be bothering you, Father
D#
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
A#                      Bdim
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
     Cm               A#
If I only knew the answer
       G#                G#m
And if all our days are numbered
                    D#
Then why do I keep counting?

Cm        G#             A#/D
My sugar sweet is so attainable
Gm      Cm       Fm     A#/D
This behaviour so unexplainable
Cm                      G#
The days just slip and slide
A#
Like they always did
Gm         Cm      F
The trouble is my head
                  Fm A#
Won't let me forget

Gm                          Cm
I took one last good look around
     A#    G#     Gm
(so many unusual sounds)
Fm      Gm      G#           A#
I gotta get my feet on the ground

Chorus:
Help me get down, I can make it (ahhhh)
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
If I only knew the answer
I wouldn't be bothering you, Father
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
Help me get down, I can make it, help me get down
If I only knew the answer
And if all our days are numbered

Would you help me get down?
(help me get down, I can make it,
help me get down)
(Help me get down, I can make it,
help me get down)
If I only knew the answer
If I change my way of living
And If I pave my streets with good times
Will the mountain keep on giving
And if all of our days are numbered
Then why do I keep counting
