Key: B
Introduction:
Bm D F#m
I watched the flood on my TV today
E Bm
I couldn't say from where
D E
Just another flood on my TV
Bm D F#m
I wasn't bothered, it was far away
E Bm
Worlds away from here
D E
From my family and me
Bm D/F# F#m
But just for a second I could feel
E Bm
The safe and independent life of mine is not real
D/F# F#m
Just for a second I could see
E D/F#
That nothing is forever and nothing is for free
F#m EA Bm D/F#
When will I go and make a change
F#m EA Bm D/F#
I've got the time and I let it waste
F#m E A Bm D
I frown at people who don't care but I'm just the same
E Bm D F#m E
I wanna make a difference - maybe some other day
Bm D F#m
A bomb went off not far from here tonight
E Bm
And now I'm wide-awake
D E
Tossing and turning in my bed
Bm D F#m
A glass of Hennessey's sits by my side
E Bm
But with every sip I take
D E
These visions creep into my head
Bm D/F# F#m
Just in this second I can see
E Bm
The lights go and bricks and ceilings tumbling on me
D/F# F#m
Just in this second I can hear
E D/F#
The steps of panicked neighbours, the sound of fear
F#m EA Bm D/F#
When will I go and make a change
F#m EA Bm D/F#
I've got the time and I let it waste
F#m E A Bm D
I frown at people who don't care but I'm just the same
E F#m Bm E
I wanna make a difference - maybe some other day
D/F#(E F#m E A Bm D/F#
When will I go and make a change
F#m E A Bm D/F#
I've got the time and I let it waste
F#m E A Bm D
I frown at people who don't care but I'm just the same
E Bm
I wanna make a difference - maybe some other day
