[Verse 1]

F                               Am
The gap that grows between our lives

                        Dm
The gap our parents never had

                                Bb
Stop those thoughts control your mind

                C#              C
Replace those things that you despise

        Am              Bb
Oh you're old I hear you say

             C                Dm
It doesn't mean that I don't care

        Gm              Bb
I don't believe in it anymore

        C#                      C*
Pathetic acts for a worthless cause

[Pre-Chorus] (x2)

Dm      Gm     C              Am
In the beginning when we were winning

Bb                      Asus4  A
When our smiles were genuine

[Chorus]

Bb      C              F   C         Dm   Gm   Asus4 A
But now unforgiven, the everlasting everlasting

[Verse 2]

F                        Am
The world is full of refugees,

                                    Dm
they're just like you and just like me

                        Bb
But as people we have a choice

           C#                 C
to end the void with all it's force

            Am              Bb
So don't forget or don't pretend

             C                Dm
it's all the same now in the end

        Gm                 Bb
It was said in a different light

             C#                 C*
destroys my days and haunts my nights

[Pre-Chorus] (x2) [Chorus]
