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)
