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
I believe in you
