The Only Answer Chords & Lyrics - Mike Doughty

[C] , [G] , [F] (Listen to the song on Groove Shark to get the strumming,
Without the right strumming the song sounds terrible.)
upon the rai[C]ls [G] among the wee[F]ds i had a mom[C]ent of[G] sere[F]nity
i saw you s[C]tand [G] in all the gr[F]een upon the rus[C]ting rail[G] balan[F]cing

[Am]you we[G]re the on[F]ly answer
[Am]my pl[G]ans spun a[F]ll around you
[Am]five years in the wr[G]ong, i am ass[F]ured
[Am]my name to you is ju[G]st another wo[F]rd

and in your b[C]ed [G] in morri[F]stown
you had maga[C]zines [G] thrown ar[F]ound
from under th[C]em [G] the phone it ra[F]ng
and in the mar[C]gin there [G] you wrote the num[F]ber down

[Am]you we[G]re the on[F]ly answer
[Am]my pl[G]ans spun a[F]ll around you
[Am]five years in the wr[G]ong, i am ass[F]ured
[Am]my name to you is ju[G]st another wo[F]rd
another w[Am]ord [G] another wo[F]rd
The only ans[Am]wer [G] another wo[F]rd

[Am]you we[G]re the on[F]ly answer
[Am]my pl[G]ans spun a[F]ll around you
[Am]five years in the wr[G]ong, i am ass[F]ured
[Am] [G] [C] (up stroke)
my name to you is just another word
[C] , [G] , [F] ,- Play how ever many times you like.
