This Old World

D


[Verse]
               A
Well there's nothing worse than 
feeling
            G                    D
Like you're first in line for losing
A                                 
I thought my life was cruising 
      G            Bm
then it crumbled all away
G                               D
I had a lot to give but what I 
                G
gave should be forgotten
                  D           
Unnoticed like a stranger I'll 
   A               Bm
surrender for the day

G D A D

           A
Well this night was an illusion,
         G               D
It came down like an intrusion
  A
I stay up through the night though
         G                Bm
I can't stand it sinking low
G
I'm a witness to the fight between
     D                  G
The darkness and the light
                              D
You're a mean old world I'm leaving 
though
   A               Bm
I have no place to go
G                            D
You're a mean old world I'm leaving 
though
  A                D
I have no place to go


[Chorus]
A                             D
This old world took me for a ride
       G             D            
I lost everything I had and then 
   A
my pride
So much that I don't know, but I 
D                 G
guess I'm set to go

 a ride

[Verse]
      A
I was raised when I saw ugliness
G                     D
To try to make some beauty
  A
Found purpose in the duty when
  G                  Bm
I couldn't find the shore
G                            
What beauty couldn't lift just 
         D             G
simply floated on adrift
            D                 A   
Rolling on directionless and lost 
       Bm
forevermore

G D A D

   A
It goes from bad to worse sometimes
G                    D
Before it can get better
 A
I string some words together and
     G                  Bm
Just try to speak the truth
G                              D 
I have a lot to get, I hope my 
             G
lot will be forgiven
              D                A  
Pardon me for living for the time 
               Bm
I'm here with you
G             D               A 
Pardon me for living for the 
                 D
time I'm here with you


[Chorus]
A                             D
This old world took me for a ride
       G             D            
I lost everything I had and then 
   A
my pride
So much that I don't know, but I 
D                 G
guess I'm set to go
             D         A          
And this old world she took me for
     G
 a ride

[Bridge]
       A
When I lay my body down I'd like to
G                      D
Feel the dirt beneath me
       A
And the howling wind could sheath me
 and
G                    Bm
I'd finally be set free
G
For a moment you can yawn and
          D              G
Throw my things into a pile
                    D
My dawn is finally here and
             A               Bm
Yours might come in just a while
G                   D
My dawn is finally here and
             A                D
Yours might come in just a while


[Chorus]
A                             D
This old world took me for a ride
       G             D            
I lost everything I had and then 
   A
my pride
So much that I don't know, but I 
D                 G
guess I'm set to go
             D         A          
And this old world she took me for
     G
 a ride
          D         A          
This old world she took me for a 
    D
ride
