Intro:
Em11 Em* Em9 Cmaj7/E


Verse 1:
Em11          Em*          Em9   Cmaj7/E
Don't wake me when this is over
            Em11    Em*      Em9   Cmaj7/E
Just let me drift amidst my dreams
Em11      Em*      Em9    Cmaj7/E
I need to regain composure
                 Em11     Em*        Em9   Cmaj7/E
And right now my heart is still and asleep

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


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


Verse 2:
Em11           Em*
We look to the heavens above
      Em9          Cmaj7/E
For advice on our lives
Em11          Em*                   Em9
Searching for God at the bottoms of bottles
        Cmaj7/E
And in strangers' eyes
Em
We're living in desperation
D11/A       C/G
Drowning in medication
Em                       D11/A  C/G
Lost in the folly of our age


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


Refrain:
       C/G                    Cmaj7/G   Em
We are strangers in this land
       C/G                    Cmaj7/G   Em
We are strangers in this land

Em11 Em* Em9 Cmaj7/E
