Verse 1:

       G+G          Gmaj7Gmaj7
Where do the boys go when it gets cold out
        E minorEm
Do they have a place to sleep?
G+G        Gmaj7Gmaj7         E minorEm
 Where did their mums go? Did they get taken
        Em*
Or had they had enough of taking care of things?
G+G       Gmaj7Gmaj7        E minorEm
 It's hard to say if someone's at fault
G+G        Gmaj7Gmaj7       E minorEm
 If I don't do anything is it my fault?

Verse 2:
       G+G            Gmaj7Gmaj7
Where do the girls go when they feel frightened
         E minorEm
Do they have some-thing to eat?
G+G         Gmaj7Gmaj7         E minorEm
 Where did their dads go? Did they get taken
        Em*
Or had they had enough of taking care of things?


Pre-chorus:
G+G          Gmaj7Gmaj7      E minorEm   Cadd9Cadd9
 I've gotta find a way to make this feel o-kay
   G+G             Gmaj7Gmaj7      E minorEm
When rock bottom for me is routine for someone else


Chorus:
        G+G        Gmaj7Gmaj7
I'm gonna take care of things
    E minorEm          Cadd9Cadd9
There's things I need to sort out
        G+G        Gmaj7Gmaj7
I'm gonna take care of things
       E minorEm              Cadd9Cadd9
Cause they're not where I want them right now
        G+G       Gmaj7Gmaj7
I know there's good in every-thing
         E minorEm           Cadd9Cadd9
And it'll show it-self when you're gentle to it
  G+G      Gmaj7Gmaj7 E minorEm   Cadd9Cadd9
I'm gonna take care of things

Verse 3:
       G+G          Gmaj7Gmaj7
Where does my mind go when it gets stupid?
     E minorEm
Is there anyone in there?
G+G       Gmaj7Gmaj7          E minorEm
 Where did my friends go? Did they get taken
        Em*
Or had they had enough of going to therapy?


Bridge:
G+G     Gmaj7Gmaj7            E minorEm
 Sat in a cold room, The corners feel friendly
           E minorEm
I think they'll take care of me
G+G         Gmaj7Gmaj7        E minorEm
 My brothers are circles, My sisters quadrilaterals
        E minorEm
And they're all so pretty

I'm gonna take care of things

There's things I need to sort out
        G+G    Gmaj7Gmaj7
I'm gonna take care of things
    E minorEm             Cadd9Cadd9
They're not where I need them right now
        G+G       Gmaj7Gmaj7
I know there's good in every-thing
         E minorEm           Cadd9Cadd9
And it'll show it-self when you're gentle to it
