F#m
Something isn't right

  Bm         F#m   D
I don't know how I know

    A             F#m
But baby, it's despite

     Bm      F#m  D
Your dog-and-pony show

      Bm               D  A
I can hear it coming

            F#m                        D A
You're only going through the motions, baby

          Bm               D A
With your engines humming

            F#m                        D A
You're just going through the motions, baby

F#m                        D A
Going through the motions, baby



                 F#m
Feel like I'm in jail

     Bm      F#m D
With you and Mr. Hyde

  A                F#m
A guy who leaves a trail

 Bm     F#m  D
About a mile wide

      Bm              D A
So it starts already

                 F#m                        D A
That you're just going through the motions, baby

        Bm               D A
You can throw confetti

                 F#m                        D A
But you're still going through the motions, baby

F#m                        D A
Going through the motions, baby



               G     A
They'll have a big parade

    G                       Bm
For every day that you stay clean

             G        A
But when the trumpets fade

          G                 D
You'll go under like a submarine

              Bm              D A
And you won't see it coming

F#m      D A

              Bm              D A
No, you won't see it coming

F#m      D A

F#m      D A

                  F#m
You could have it made

   Bm       F#m   D
Up there in San Rafael

    A          F#m
But baby, I'm afraid

     Bm    A       D
I'll never see you well

             Bm              D A
Because I've seen the tally

                F#m                        D A
And you're just going through the motions, baby

     Bm            D A
To a big finale

                F#m                        D A
That comes from going through the motions, baby

F#m                        D A
Going through the motions, baby

F#m                        G
Going through the motions, baby

                              D          A      
You're just going through the motions, baby
