Verse one
Bm                              D      E
Came in from a rainy Thursday   on the avenue
Bm                                      D              E
Thought I heard you talking softly
Bm                              D      E
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio
Bm                                      D      E
Still I can’t escape the ghost of       you
Bm
What is happening to it all
F#
Crazy some say
C#m                             D
Where is the life that I        recognise?      Gone away
Chorus
A                          Em7
But I won’t cry for yesterday
A7                      N*                              D
There’s an ordinary     world somehow   I have to       find
A                       Em7                   A7
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
        N*          D
I will learn to survive
Verse two
Bm                              D              E
Passion or coincidence once     prompted you to say
Bm                              D              E
Pride will tear us both apart
Bm
Well now        pride’s gone out the window
                D               E
Cross the       rooftops, runaway
Bm                              D              E
Left me in the vacuum of my     heart
Bm
What is happening to me
F#
Crazy some say
C#m                        D
Where is my friend when I need you most?        Gone away
Chorus
A                            Em7
But I won’t cry for yesterday
            A7          N*                              D
There’s an ordinary     world somehow   I have to       find
A                       Em7                   A7
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
        N*          D
I will learn to survive
Bm      D      E      Bm     D      E      Bm     D      E      Bm     D      E
Bm      F#     C#m    D
Verse three
Bm                                      D      E
Papers in the roadside tell of  suffering and   greed
Bm                              D      E
Feared today forgot tomorrow
Bm                              D              E
Here beside the news of holy    war and holy    need
Bm                              D      E
Ours is just a little sorrow talk
Chorus
A                         Em7
But I won’t cry for yesterday
A7                      N*                        D
There’s an ordinary     world somehow   I have to find
A                       Em7                   A7
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
        N*           D
I will learn to survive
A                       Em7
Every world is my world (I will learn to survive)
A                       Em7
Any world is my world   (I will learn to survive)
A                       Em7
Any world is my world   (I will learn to survive)
A                       Em7
Every world is my world (I will learn to survive)
