[Verse 1]
     Em       Em        Em           Em
Once   upon a time in a city made of gold,
        Em             Em          Em              Em
streets   were full of dreams, the air was full of hope.
    Cmaj7                        Cmaj7
But somewhere in the midnight, beneath the crooked moon,
    Asus2                              Am*
the children stopped believin', so the flowers never bloomed.
 
[Interlude]
Em    Esus4  | Dsus4   D   |
 
[Verse 2]
    Em                        Dsus4              D
The elders lost their sanity, mothers lost their smiles,
Cmaj7                        Am
fathers chased the money got one too many miles.
Em                           Dsus4       D
Water turned to whiskey, the visionaries blind,
          Cmaj7                          Am*
while the people in the picture box were poisoning their minds,
      N.C.
their minds, their minds.
 
[Chorus]
           Em                                D/F#
Let's burn   this bridge and ride this river to another town,
        Cmaj7                     Am
hold up   a holy flame to all the rain that's pourin' down.
      Em                           D/F#
Well, hatred is the seed the Devil planted in the ground,
    Cmaj7                          Am            N.C.
our beating hearts are singin' now   for love to turn this world around.
Em  Dsus4     Am            Cmaj7 Am
Oh, turn this world around. Oh,   turn this world around.
 
[Verse 3]
      Em                                    Dsus4           D
Let's dust off all the rust, it starts from diamonds on the sea,
         Cmaj7                      Am
ring the bells in the cathedrals, rejoice for what's redeemed.
      Em                           Dsus4       D
Let's lock and load with truth and blow up the lies,
Cmaj7                           Am*
  all of us are guilty, we have   no alibi.
 
[Chorus]
      Em                                     D/F#
Let's   burn this bridge and ride this river to another town,
        Cmaj7                     Am
hold up   a holy flame to all the rain that's pourin' down.
      Em                           D/F#
Well, hatred is the seed the Devil planted in the ground,
    Cmaj7                          Am
our beating hearts are singin' now   for love to turn this world around.
Em  D         G      Em     Cmaj7 Am
Oh, turn this world around, oh,   turn this world around.
Em  D         G             Cmaj7 A*                  (Em)
Oh, turn this world around, woah,    turn this world around.
 
[Solo]
Em         | D/F#       | Cmaj7      | Am         |
 
[End-Chorus]
      Em                                     D/F#
Let's   burn this bridge and ride this river to another town,
        Cmaj7                     Am
hold up   a holy flame to all the rain that's pourin' down.
      Em                           D/F#
Well, hatred is the seed the Devil planted in the ground,
    Cmaj7                          Am
our beatin' hearts are singin' out - singin' out.
    Cmaj7                          Am
Our beating hearts are singin' now   for love to turn this world around.
Em  D                       Cmaj7 Am
Oh, turn this world around, oh,   turn this world around.
Em  D                       Cmaj7 A*
Oh, turn this world around, woah, turn this world a - [Outro] round.
 
[Outro] (Repeat and Fade Out)
