Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][Em][C][G][D]
[A][Em][C][G][Bb]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]Came in from a rainy Thursday
[D]on the ave[E]nue
[Bm]Thought I heard you talking softly[D]
[E]I t[Bm]urned on the lights, the TV,
[D]and the [E]radio
[Bm]Still I can't escape the ghost of you[D][E]
[Bm]

[Pre-chorus 1]
What has happened to it all?
[F#m]Crazy, some'd say
[C#]Where is the life that I recog[D]nize?

[Chorus 1]
Gone away
[A]But I won't cry for yesterday[Em]
There's an ordinary [C]world
Somehow [G]I have to f[D]ind
[A]And as I try to make my way[Em]
To the ordinary [C]world
I will [G]learn to sur[Bb]vive
[Bm][D][E]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]Passion or coincidence
Once [D]prompted you to [E]say
[Bm]"Pride will tear us both apart[D]"[E]
Well now [Bm]pride's gone out the window
Cross the [D]rooftops
Run [E]away
[Bm]Left me in the vacuum of my hear[D]t[E]

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Bm]What is happening to me?
[F#m]Crazy, some'd say
[C#]Where is my friend when I need [D]you most?

[Chorus 2]
Gone away
[A]But I won't cry for yesterday[Em]
There's an ordinary [C]world
Somehow [G]I have to f[D]ind
[A]And as I try to make my way[Em]
To the ordinary [C]world
I will [G]learn to sur[D]vive

[Interlude 1]
[A][Em][C][G][D]
[A][Em][C][G][Bb]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Papers in the roadside
Tell of [D]suffering and [E]greed
[Bm]Fear today, forgot [D]tomorrow[E]
Ooh, [Bm]here besides the news
Of holy [D]war and holy [E]need
[Bm]Ours is just a little sorrowed [D]talk[E]

[Solo 1]
[A][Em][C][G][D]
[A][Em][C][G][D]

[Chorus 3]
[A]And I won't cry for yesterday[Em]
There's an ordinary [C]world
Somehow [G]I have to f[D]ind
[A]And as I try to make my way[Em]
To the ordinary [C]world
I will [G]learn to sur[D]vive
Every [A]one[Em]
Is my [C]world, (I will [G]learn to sur[D]vive)
Any [A]one[Em]
Is my [C]world, (I will [G]learn to sur[D]vive)
Any [A]one[E]
Is my [C]world[G][D]
Every [A]one[E]
Is my [C]world[G][D]
[Fade out]
