Intro

Hey, when the world's on fire

  [G/f#]

I believe in you

Hey, when the world's on fire

  [G/f#]

I believe in you

Verse 1

- - [G/f#]

Hey, when the world's on fire

 I believe in you

 We can't just disappear

 Disappear without a trace

 And when the fire burns out

 And there's me and you

 We're getting closer now

 Closer than you'd believe

 But the truth is still out of reach

- / - - [G/f#] (x2)

Verse 2

Hey when the world's on fire

 And it's me and you

 Seems like a different faith

 A world that seems out of place

When these arms reach out

 I'll embrace you

 Don't feel like a prisoner

 A prison without a cage

 You're the only thing I can take

Chorus 1

It's a long way down from here

Verse 3

When the world's on fire

 What can we do?

 I can't surrender now

 But surrender falls out of grace

 And when you see this boat

 With the golden rule

 Don't let it disappear

 Disappear without a trace

 Like a man who's lost at sea

Chorus 2

It's a long way down from here

 A million miles are closer than you think

Solo

- / - - [G/f#] (x2)

Outro

Hey, when the world's on fire
