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)
