[Intro]
Em G D/F#
Em G F
[Verse 1]
Em C
Oh my mind
G D/F#
I walk down Mayflower Road again
Em C
the waning sun
G F
echoes from the park seem so absurd
Em C
the bus takes hours
G D/F#
I knew it would but I cant shake the sting
Em C G F
can't spend my time on everybody else
[Chorus]
Em C
If buildings fell
G D/F#
At least we'd be in matrimony
Em C
I can't control
G F
The words kaleidoscope inside my head
[Instrumental]
Em G D/F#
Em G F
[Verse 2]
Em G
Has the world gone mad
D/F#
Or is it me?
Em
All these small things
G
They gather round me
D/F#
gather round me
Em G
Is it all so very bad
D/F#
I can’t see
Em
Oh all these small things
G
They gather round me
D/F#
Gather round me
[Verse 3]
Em C
Saw The Police
G D/F#
screaming something trivial like
Em C
'keep the peace'
G F
the world moves on and you can't shake the sound
Em C
I know she's home
G D/F#
Waiting on somebody loathing life
Em C G F
all in my mind the anvil and the weight upon my back
[Instrumental]

And I can't see my love
