Em Dsus2 Bm
You see the world in black and white
C Am Em
No colour or light
Em Dsus2 Bm
You think you'll never get it right
C Am Em
But you're wrong you might
Em Dsus2 Bm
The sky could fall could fall on me
C Am Em
The parting of the seas
Em Dsus2 Bm
But you mean more mean more to me
C Am Em
Than any colour I can see
C Am
All you ever wanted was love
Em
But you never looked hard enough
A
It's never gonna give itself up
C Am
And all you ever wanted to be
Em
Living in perfect symmetry
A
Nothing is as down on Earth as us
C
as us
Em Dsus2 Bm
You see the world in black and white
C Am Em
Not painted right
Em Dsus2 Bm
You see no meaning to your life
C Am Em
Yes you try
C Am Em
Yes you try
(repeat lead intro)
C Am
And all you ever wanted was love
Em
But you never looked hard enough
A
It's never gonna give itself up
C Am
And all you ever wanted to be
Em
Living in perfect symmetry
A
Nothing is as down on this Earth
