Verse 1

---------

F Am

Now the radio stutters snaps to life

Dm C Bb

Some sour song that sets it right

F Bb

And when London falls

F Bb

He'd like to call

F Am

But the stars collide

Dm C Bb

They're beautiful and much maligned

F Bb F Bb

In a universe where you see the worst

C

And it's up to you to fix it

Chorus

--------

Bb F

Now you've worked it out

C

And you see it all

Bb F

Now you've worked it out

C

And you see it all

Bb F

And you want to shout

C

How you see it all (riff)

Verse 2

---------

F Am

It's easy to dismiss the "what's it all about" crowd

Dm C Bb

There is no doubt it's this, here, now

F Bb

And you close your eyes

F Bb

He's not coming back

F Am

So you've worked it out, overfeed the cat

Dm C Bb

And the plants are dry and they need to drink

F Bb F Bb

So you do your best and you flood the sink

C

Sit down in the kitchen and cry

Chorus

--------

Bb F

Now you've worked it out

C

And you see it all

Bb F

Now you've worked it out

C

And you see it all

Bb F

And you want to shout

C

How you see it all (riff)

Verse 3

---------

F Am

Now the universe left you for a runner lap

Dm C Bb

It feels like home when it comes crushing back

F Bb

And it makes you laugh

F Bb

And it makes you cry

F

When London falls

Am

And you are still alive

Dm C

The radio stutters

Bb

It makes you laugh

F Bb

And the aftermath

F Bb

Open up your eyes

C

You are so alive

Chorus

--------

Bb F

Now you've worked it out

C

And you see it all

Bb F

Now you've worked it out

C

And you see it all

Bb F

And you want to shout

C

How you see it all (riff)
