Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Just think of the millions
and millions of people
Who [D]could have exis[Em]ted,
but [D]didn't ex[G]ist
Yet [D]here we [G]are
[D]And the millio[Em]ns and millions
of planets [D]and stars
Never [Em]listed on [D]anyone's [G]list
And [D]here we [G]are
[F#m][B]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
[E]But [B]oh... [Bm]what a lif[E]e it i[B]s[Bm][Am]
Oh... what can [D]we do[Am]

[Verse 3]
With you
[G]Poor thing, [Em]everything's
tra[D]gic today[C]
And your [Bm]life's a [D]mess
[G]Poor thing,
[Em]maybe you like [D]it that [C]way
That could [F#m]make sense I
guess
[B][Em][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[B]
Just think of the [Em]mil lions
and millions of horrible things
[D]That can [Em]happen,
that hap[D]pen each [G]day
[D]But on [G]we go
[D]There must [Em]still be a few
million chances
That just [D]a few [Em]things could
still turn [D]out [G]okay
[D]So on [G]we go[F#m]
