Chords

The whole song is an alternating picking pattern between the bass note of each chord and the high 3 [Intro] E [Verse]
E              G#            C#m      E
History's been leaning on me lately

       F#                               B
I can feel the future breathing down my neck

    E                 G#                    C#m               E
And all the things I thought were true when I was young, and you were too

    F#                         B
Turned out to be broken, and I don't know what comes next
[Chorus]
C#m                 A                 E                 B
In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind

        C#m               A              E
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
[Pre-verse] E G# C#m E F# B [Verse]
        E                  G#             C#m       E
They've started raising walls around the world now

     F#                             B
Like hackles raised upon a cornered cat

 E             G#                   C#m                 E
On the borders in our heads between things that can and can't be said

 F#                                          B
We stopped talking to each other and there's something wrong with that
[Chorus]
C#m                   A               E                 B
So before you go out searching, don't decide what you'll find

        C#m               A              E
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
[Bridge]
           A G#m          C#m      F#
You should know you're not alone

        A G#m           C#m     F#
Trouble comes and trouble goes

         A G#m      C#m      F#
How this ends no one knows

            A G#m              C#m
So, hold on tight when the wind blows
[Break] A E B C#m A E [Verse]
     E                G#             C#m     E
The wind blew both of us to sand and sea

     F#                                   B
And where the dry lands stands is hard to say

        E                G#             C#m           E
As the current drags us by the shore we can no longer say for sure

       F#                             B
Who's drowning, or if they can be saved
[Chorus]
    C#m                   A                   E                 B
But when you're out there floundering, like a lighthouse I will shine

        C#m               A              E
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind

      C#m               A             E                 B
Like a beacon reaching out to you and yours, for me and mine

        C#m               A              E
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind

    C#m               A               E                 B
In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind

        C#m               A              E
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
