VERSE 1:
G
All my oldest friends have worked out a new way
Em
To make it all go on, to forge out a new day
Cmaj7
But I'm just sitting here
D G
Wondering why I can't get it right
G
It hits me like a hearse, driving sideways
Em
And now I'm feeling worse throughout my days
Cmaj7
I'm only lookin' forward
D G
To find some kind of light in the tunnel now?
PRE-CHORUS:
C D Em
Throw all my plans in the wind
Em D C
Even if I'm back here again
CHORUS:
G
Every now and then you come up for fresh air
Em
Every now and then you fall in the dirt yeh
Cmaj7 D G
Every now and then you realise you're only a mortal man
G
Every now and then you begin to suffer
Em
Every now and then you had about enough yeah
Cmaj7 D G
Every now and then all you really need is a heroin?e
VERSE 2:
G
I think I need a change, that's the way it is
Em
I tried to live with blame, I'm so sick of this
Cmaj7
The world goes up in flames
D G
So many of us fighting for the flimsiest things
G
The city's like a dog, like a greyhound
Em
The people still believe as they run through the beeping sounds
Cmaj7
My mind is going mad
D G
Not getting any closer to homeward bound
PRE-CHORUS:
C D Em
Throw all my plans in the wind

Even if I'm back here again
