VERSE 1:

EM                       DmI (xx0231@1)saw the world, it was beautiful
        AM               CBut (x32010@1)the rain got in, and ruined it all
EM                  DmThen (xx0231@1)I tried to be invisible
        AM                  C (x32010@1)    
It was impossible, even for me
EM                            D (xx0232@1)          
I laughed at love, it was a big mistake
        AM            CIn (x32010@1)the absence of, I filled it with hate

              EM      G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)   EM
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
              EM      G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)        EM
Yeah, there's no such thing as nothing at all


VERSE 2 (same as verse 1):

I had the brains not to think at all
But the rain got in, and I thought too hard
On the world and as usual
I slumped too far, into the void
I tried to make everything meaningless
But the rain got in
And made it a mess

              EM      G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)   EM
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
              EM      G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)        EM
Yeah, there's no such thing as nothing at all
             EM      G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)   EM
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing

But my finger's on the trigger and I'll turn off the world


BRIDGE:
C (x32010@1)                     AM
  So what give me the right
                      G (320003@1)          E7 (020130@1)              CTo (x32010@1)think that I could throw away a life? even mine
                     AM
And what makes you believe
                    G (320003@1)              EM
That you could get away with getting old?
              EM
Overlapping me
                    DmMaybe (xx0231@1)to lose or to save your soul
     EM
Is a choice of how
              C (x32010@1)     AYou (x02220@1)fill the hole!
CAnd (x32010@1)the rain got in
