["The Science of Myth"]

[Intro chord: F#]

F#                                                        B
   If you've ever questioned beliefs that you hold you're not alone
    F#                                          B
But you oughta realize that every religion is a methaphor
D#  C#             B            D#         C#        B
    In the case of Christianity    and Judaism there exists the belief
     D#        C#          B
That spiritual matters are enslaved to history
    F#                                                B
The Buddhists believe that the functional aspects override the myth
      F#                                                B
While other religions use the literal core to build foundations with
D#              C#             B
   See half the world sees the myth as fact
         D#        C#         B
And it's seen as a lie by the other half and
D#            C#                 B
   The simple truth is that it's none of that cause
D#                            B
   Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
F#                           C#
   Somehow we get by without ever learning
D#                            B
   Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
F#                           C#
   Somehow we get by without ever learning
D#             F#               B          C#
   Science and religion are not mutually exclusive
D#                         F#
   In fact for better understanding
            B                C#
We take the facts of science and apply them
D#                         F#                  B             C#
  And as both factors keep evolving then we continue getting information
D#                     F#                B               C#
  But closing off possibilities makes it hard to see the bigger picture
   F#                                                 B
Consider the case of the woman whose faith helped her make it through
             F#
When she was raped and cut up, left for dead in a trunk,
          B
But her beliefs held true
D#            C#             B
   It doesn't matter if it's real or not
      D#              C#              B
Cause some things are better left without a doubt and
D#       C#           B
   If it works and it gets the job done...
D#                            B
   Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
F#                           C#
   Somehow we get by without ever learning
D#                            B
   Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
