C majorC
Now happiness comes
G+G    C majorC         G+G
And it seems much like money
C majorC          G+G
People gather round it
              D MajorD
When its gone they go running
C majorC        G+G
Im trying to be here
        C majorC
Lift up to the now
           G+G
But the past has to come
         D MajorD
And pulls me back down

G+G
You slip through my hands
C majorC            G+G
Like I did through my lover’s

Like a river that passes
         D MajorD
The bed that its on
C majorC        G+G
I’m bracing for loneliness
      C majorC
I know its coming
      D MajorD       G+G
Who will I hold when you're gone

Now, who will I hold when youre gone

Now these victims of love
C majorC         G+G
Most hopeless of all
C majorC      G+G              D MajorD
Fortunate prisoners in an infinite war
C majorC       G+G           C majorC
They turn on themselves, its pure sabotage
       G+G      C majorC      G+G
Silver spoon babies with Tupperware hearts

Silver spoon babies with Tupperware hearts

The rocks that its on
C majorC        G+G
I’m bracing for loneliness
      C majorC
I know its coming
