Intro:
Em11Em11 Em* Em9Em9 Cmaj7/E


Verse 1:
Em11Em11     Em*     Em9Em9  Cmaj7/E
Don't wake me when this is over
      Em11Em11  Em*   Em9Em9  Cmaj7/E
Just let me drift amidst my dreams
Em11Em11   Em*   Em9Em9  Cmaj7/E
I need to regain composure
         Em11Em11   Em*    Em9Em9  Cmaj7/E
And right now my heart is still and asleep


Pre-Chorus:
E minorEm      D11/A C/GC/G
I refuse to believe
   E minorEm         D11/A C/GC/G
That we've become so obsolete
E minorEm             D11/A C/GC/G
Don't wake me when this is over
         E minorEm           D11/A  C/GC/G
'Cause I need to find the time lost in between


Chorus:
  C/GC/G       Cmaj7/G
If we get back (Get back)
        E minorEm
To lovin' each other (Loving each other)
  C/GC/G       Cmaj7/G
Can we get back (Get back)
          E minorEm
To learning how to live?
    C/GC/G           Cmaj7/G
We are strangers in this land
            E minorEm
With so much left to discover
  C/GC/G       Cmaj7/G
Can we get back (Get back)
          E minorEm
To learning how to live?

Verse 2:
Em11Em11      Em*
We look to the heavens above
   Em9Em9     Cmaj7/E
For advice on our lives
Em11Em11     Em*          Em9Em9
Searching for God at the bottoms of bottles
    Cmaj7/E
And in strangers' eyes
E minorEm
We're living in desperation
D11/A    C/GC/G
Drowning in medication
E minorEm            D11/A C/GC/G
Lost in the folly of our age


Chorus:
  C/GC/G       Cmaj7/G
If we get back (Get back)
        E minorEm
To lovin' each other (Loving each other)
  C/GC/G       Cmaj7/G
Can we get back (Get back)
          E minorEm
To learnin' how to live?
    C/GC/G           Cmaj7/G
We are strangers in this land
            E minorEm
With so much left to discover
  C/GC/G       Cmaj7/G
Can we get back (Get back)
          E minorEm
To learnin' how to live?


Refrain:
    C/GC/G          Cmaj7/G  E minorEm
We are strangers in this land
    C/GC/G          Cmaj7/G  E minorEm
We are strangers in this land
