G                  D 
Here’s another pity 

Cadd9 
There’s another chance 

G                         D 
You tried to learn our lesson 

                        Cadd9 
But you can’t 

G                          D 
If we could burn this city 

Cadd9 
And the futures ending past 

G                              D 
Without a change our lives will never last 

Cadd9 
             We’re going fast 


G                                           D                     Cadd9 
You can sit beside me when the world comes down 

G                                       D                    Cadd9 
If it doesn’t matter then just turn around

We don’t need our bags

We can just leave town 

G                                            D                      Cadd9 
You can sit beside me when the world comes down 


G                      D 
What can  we do better? 

Cadd9 
When will we know how? 

G                             D                         Cadd9 
A man says from the sidewalk to the crowd 

G                               D 
And we could change the weather 

Cadd9 
If we wanted to ourselves 

G                     D                              Cadd9 
And if we cant I guess we all need help        I need help 


G                                             D                     Cadd9 
You can sit beside me when the world comes down 

G                                       D                    Cadd9 
If it doesn’t matter then just turn around 

G 
We don’t need our bags 

       D                 Cadd9 
We can just leave town 

G                                             D                      Cadd9 
You can sit beside me when the world comes down 


    Em           Cadd9 
We say, we do 

      G              D 
The lies, the truth 

        Em   Cadd9 
And all I need is next to me 


G, D, Cadd9 X 4 ( Same rhythm as the Chorus) 

Em, Cadd9 

G                                            D                     Cadd9 
You can sit beside me when the world comes down 

G                                     D                    Cadd9
