World On Fire

[Verse 1]

G#                  D#m

I keep watching the world

      G#                     D#m

Chase their circles in their places

G#          D#m  G#          D#m

Joining the race    inside a maze

G#                   D#m

Look 'round, are you one of them?

G#                     D#m

Yeah, see how they can all see

G#            D#m

Pointless and worry

G#         D#m

So down to hurry



[Chorus]

G#                    D#m

The world could be on fire

D#m

And we wouldn't know

G#                 D#m

The temperature is rising

D#m

And no one knows

G#                    F#

We'll hide behind the money

F#

That's the way it goes

G#                    F#

The world could be on fire

F#

And we wouldn't know



[Verse 2]

G#                    D#m

Complaining about the same things

G#                       D#m

Not watching where we're going

G#        D#m

Ending up 50

G#           D#m

Somehow with nothing

G#                  D#m

Oh, don't listen to what they say

G#             D#m

I admit I know that I have

G#           D#m

Don't be the same

G#           D#m

Don't be the same



[Chorus]

G#                    D#m

The world could be on fire

D#m

And we wouldn't know

G#                 D#m

The temperature is rising

D#m

And no one knows

G#                    F#

We'll hide behind the money

F#

That's the way it goes

G#                    F#

The world could be on fire

F#

And we wouldn't know



[Bridge]

G#        D#m          G#

And so it goes another day here

D#m

Passing by

G#       D#m                G#

I saw it waving from the window

D#m

Could you save me?

G#         D#m                G#

Keep taking time, taking your time

D#m

But there's no time left

G#     D#m             G#

Listen for it's almost over

D#m

Yeah



[Chorus]

G#                    D#m

The world could be on fire

D#m

And we wouldn't know

G#                 D#m

The temperature is rising

D#m

And no one knows

G#                    F#

We'll hide behind the money

F#

That's the way it goes

G#                    F#

The world could be on fire

F#

And we wouldn't know
