C5                 A5     D5      G5
Wet ground and the snow is still not falling
 C5           A5  D5      G5
Circumstances are alarming, darling
  C5                A5        D5      G5
'Future' is just a word, that's how I recall it
     C5                 A5  D5     F5
The past is much more present in our yawning

    A5                E5                             A5
But I heard you right, something was lost from the start
    D5                   G5
Oh babe, what should we do? What should we say?
  E5
Should we give it away?

     D5                G5           F5          C5
The future looked so bright, what happened tonight?
 D5              G5            F5              C5      C5
Aeroplanes are crashing, who turned out the light?
 A5            A5              D5           F5
Seemingly, it seems to me, I'm subject to a joke

And it's not a test

 C5                 A5       D5       G5
Wet ground and the stars are still out shining
 C5               A5 D5      G5
Neon lights were never oh, so blinding
  C5           A5     D5    G5
Prosecute the ones who stand accused
 C5            A5   D5        F5
Let the others go or leave them dying

    A5                E5                             A5
But I heard you right, something was lost from the start
    D5                   G5
Oh babe, what should we do? What should we say?
  E5
Should we give it away?

     D5                G5           F5          C5
The future looked so bright, what happened tonight?
 D5              G5            F5              C5      C5
Aeroplanes are crashing, who turned out the light?
 A5            A5              D5           F5
Seemingly, it seems to me, I'm subject to a joke

And it's not a sin
