[Verse 1]
G G/C G/D
When you can't win for losin'
G/B G/A G
And the beggars start choosing the chaos in your head
G/C G/D
Calls the cracks to start showing
G/B G/A
All knowing, all glowing with the light of the
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C D Em D
Dying to raise the day, oh-oh
[Chorus 1]
G G/C G/D
You're a world away but you're still the same
G/B G/A G
I know you by your heart and I will call you by your name
G/C G/D
And it's a long way from the crack to the break
G/B G/A G G/C G/D G/B G/A

[Verse 2]
G G/C G/D
Steady yourself and your tumbleweed words
G/B G/A G
Be a street corner preacher or just feed the birds
G/C G/D
But don't hold on to yourself with hard mortar and stone
G/B G/A C/G
Be a rubber band man, make the water your bond
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C D Em D
Dying just to livе now
[Chorus 2]
G G/C G/D
You're a world away but you're still the same
G/B G/A G
I know you by your heart and I will call you by your name
G/C G/D
And it's a long way from the crack to the break
G/B G/A G
You know that I remember everything
G/C G/D
When I say forever, you say, "Get back in the car"
G/B G/A D
Nothing lasts forever, babe, you know it breaks my heart
[Bridge]
C G
And I'll call you anything that you like
D C G D G
I am free and I'm able to call you the second that you
[Pre-Chorus 3]
C D Em D
Dying just to livе now
[Chorus 3]
G G/C G/D
You're a world away but you're still the same
G/B G/A G
I know you by your heart and I will call you by your name
G/C G/D
And it's a long way from the crack to the break
G/B G/A G
You know that I remember everything
G/C G/D
When I say forever, you say, "Get back in the car"
G/B G/A G
Nothing lasts forever, babe, you know it breaks my heart
G/C G/D
And you're a world away but you're still the same
G/B G/A G G/C
You know that I remember everything
[Outro]
G G/C G/D
A new ink on your skin, red lips in the dark
G/B G/A D
Nothing lasts forever, babe, you know it breaks my heart
G/C G/D
Put a shiver on your skin, do your hair in the car
G/B G/A G
If nothing lasts forever, babe, then can we make a start?
