Verse
F          C
It is like so many other things
Gm         A#
As distant as your former sins
F          C
So sad and lonely and so derelict
Gm     A#
As the optimism that we once shared

Bridge
Gm                      Csus4        C
I'll send you postcards every single day
Gm                    Csus4  C
Just to prove I still exist
Gm                  Csus4     C
This world will not impose its will
A#
I will not give up and I will not give in
C
And I will not give up and I will not give in
