Rick Springfield - World Start Turning Chords

[Intro]
 
C# F# B F# C#
C# F# B F# C#
 
 
[Verse]
 
C#
I was born in the Southern Land
        F#
Yeah, a million miles from America
        B                  F#               C#      E F#
And whatever we wanted was just a matter of choosing
    C#
And I was raised in the Great White Way
          F#
Just like all those kids in America
        B                 F#                     C#
And the T.V. taught us to win with no thought of losing (then I woke up)
C#
This is the real world, the real town without pity
F#
This is the real world, in the shadow of the city
C#
This is the real wheel you don't get too many spins
F#
This is the real deal, not everybody wins
      D                    A/C#
Just another soul lost in America
      E                   B      D
I was so frustrated and I got so lonely
                 A/C#       B
It almost took a miracle to open my eyes
 
 
[Chorus]
 
E
World Start Turning (turn into the wind)
A
World Start Turning (some things were never meant to be)
          D
I've been standing on the beach
A                    E
Crying to the raging sea I was falling, falling
E
Heart start beating (turn into the wind)
A
Heart start beating (some things were never meant to be)
       D
Made a promise to myself
     A                   E
I'll never get that low again
 
 
[Interlude]
 
C# F# B F# C#
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C#
We were taught if man believes in
F#
What he wants in America
     B                F#                     C#     E F#
It's only a matter of time, just a matter of seasons
      C#
But I walk through the houses of dreams that died
          F#
I see the ones still trapped there the ones that tried
              B                             F#
But spent the rest of their lives wondering why
                  C#
And searching for reasons (and they never wake up)
C#
This is the real world, you've got to know just when to bend
F#
Here in the world, precious little matters in the end
C#
This is the real world, the real town without pity
F#
This is the real world, in the shadow of the city
      D                    A/C#
Just another soul lost in America
      E                   B      D
I was so frustrated and I got so lonely
                 A/C#       B
It almost took a miracle to open my eyes
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
E
World Start Turning (turn into the wind)
A
World Start Turning (some things were never meant to be)
          D
I've been standing on the beach
A                    E
Crying to the raging sea I was falling, falling
E
Heart start beating (turn into the wind)
A
Heart start beating (some things were never meant to be)
       D
Made a promise to myself
     A                   E
I'll never get that low again

You can't stop the world, cant' stop the world

[Bridge]
 
B                      C#m
Never could settle for where I was
         A                      F#m
Too many places I was trying to be
    B                         C#m
The times I succeeded and the times I failed
              F#m                      A
You know that no one will remember but me
 
 
[Chorus 3]
