Dm                    C
Maybe it was all too much
     F                  Gm
Too much for a man to take.
Dm                      C
Everything's bound to break
F
Sooner or later, sooner or later.
Dm                      C
You're all that I can trust
 F                  Gm
Facing the darkest days
Dm             C
Everyone ran away
F
But we're gonna stay here,
we're gonna stay here.

Dm        C
Ahhhhhh, Ahhhhh
F                       A#
I know you're scared tonight
Dm        C
Ahhhhhh, Ahhhhh
F                      Gm
I'll never leave your side.

Chorus:
A#                         F
When it all falls, when it all falls down
C                          Dm
I'll be your fire when the lights go out.
A#                          F
When there's no one, no one else around
C                        Dm
We'll be two souls in a ghost town.
          A#    F    C   Dm
When the world gets cold I'll be your cover,
 A#    F    C   Dm
Let's just hold onto each other.
A#                         F
When it all falls, when it all falls down
C                        Dm
We'll be two souls in a ghost town.

Tell me how we got this far
Every man for himself
Everything's gone to hell
We gotta stay strong, we're gonna hold on
This world has turned to dust
All we've got left is love
Might as well start with us
Singing a new song, something to build on

Ahhhhhh, Ahhhhh
I know you're scared tonight
Ahhhhhh, Ahhhhh
I'll never leave your side.

Chorus

Dm                  A7
I know we're alright
                       A#
Cause we'll never be alone
                F         C       Dm
In this mad mad, in this mad mad world.
                 A7
Even with no light
                        A#
We're gonna shine like gold
                F         C       Dm
In this mad mad, in this mad mad world.

A#                         F
When it all falls, when it all falls down
C                          Dm
I'll be your fire when the lights go out.
A#                          F
When there's no one, no one else around
C
We'll be two souls in a ghost town.

Chorus
