INTRO
G5   F5     Bb5    Eb5   Bb5    F5
La la la la la la, la la la la la
G5   F5     Bb5    Eb5   F5
La ra la ra ra ra, la ra la ra ra 

VERSE 1
Bb5                       F5
Where did all the people go?
G5                                      Eb5
They got scared when the lights went low.
Bb5                           F5
I get you through it nice and slow,
                  G5                             Eb5
When the world's spinning out of control.

Bb5                       F5
Afraid of what they might lose
G5                                      Eb5
Might get scraped or they might get bruised.
Bb5                           F5
You could beg and what's the use
            G5                             Eb5
That's why it's called the moment of truth

CHORUS
Bb5                     
I'd get it if you need it,
F5                 F5          
I'll search if you don't see it,
G5
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb                       F You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

Bb5
I know you don't believe it,
F5                 F5  
But I said it and I still mean it,
G5
When you heard what I told you,
Eb5                       F5
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.

VERSE 2
Bb5                       F5
Funny when times get hard,
G5                                      Eb5
At the last moment when you're supposed to charge,
Bb5                       F5
We're always on the longest yard,
G5                                      Eb5
Oh they feel their feet get cold.

Bb5                       F5
Hiding here, hiding there,
G5                                      Eb5
Find them underneath the stairs,
Bb5                       F5
People hiding everywhere,
G5                                      Eb5
Trying to be still like a stone.

CHORUS
Bb5                     
I'd get it if you need it,
F5                 F5          
I'll search if you don't see it,
G5
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb5                       F5
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

Bb5
I know you don't believe it,
F5                 F5  
But I said it and I still mean it,
G5
When you heard what I told you,
Eb5                       F5
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.

BRIDGE 
G5   F5     Bb5   
My aim is so true,
Eb5   Bb5    F5
I wanna show you,
G5   F5     Bb5   
I'll try forever,
Eb5     F5 
I'm never gonna say "surrender".

CHORUS
Bb5                     
I'd get it if you need it,
F5                 F5          
I'll search if you don't see it,
G5
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb5                       F5
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

Bb5
I know you don't believe it,
F5                 F5  
But I said it and I still mean it,
G5
When you heard what I told you,
Eb5                       F5
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
