INTRO
Gm   F     Bb    Eb   Bb    F
La la la la la la, la la la la la
Gm   F     Bb    Eb   F
La ra la ra ra ra, la ra la ra ra 

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

Bb                       F
Afraid of what they might lose
Gm                                      Eb
Might get scraped or they might get bruised.
Bb                           F
You could beg and what's the use
            Gm                             Eb
That's why it's called the moment of truth

CHORUS
Bb                     
I'd get it if you need it,
F                 F/F#          
I'll search if you don't see it,
Gm
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb                       F You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

Bb
I know you don't believe it,
F                 F/F#  
But I said it and I still mean it,
Gm
When you heard what I told you,
Eb                       F
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.

VERSE 2
Bb                       F
Funny when times get hard,
Gm                                      Eb
At the last moment when you're supposed to charge,
Bb                       F
We're always on the longest yard,
Gm                                      Eb
Oh they feel their feet get cold.

Bb                       F
Hiding here, hiding there,
Gm                                      Eb
Find them underneath the stairs,
Bb                       F
People hiding everywhere,
Gm                                      Eb
Trying to be still like a stone.

CHORUS
Bb                     
I'd get it if you need it,
F                 F/F#          
I'll search if you don't see it,
Gm
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb                       F
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

Bb
I know you don't believe it,
F                 F/F#  
But I said it and I still mean it,
Gm
When you heard what I told you,
Eb                       F
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.

BRIDGE 
Gm   F     Bb   
My aim is so true,
Eb   Bb    F
I wanna show you,
Gm   F     Bb   
I'll try forever,
Eb     F 
I'm never gonna say "surrender".

CHORUS
Bb                     
I'd get it if you need it,
F                 F/F#          
I'll search if you don't see it,
Gm
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb                       F
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

Bb
I know you don't believe it,
F                 F/F#  
But I said it and I still mean it,
Gm
When you heard what I told you,
Eb                       F
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
