Capo on first fret
A E
There's a man down my street every morning wakes up late
D A E
when he wakes up he sees what he's become
A E
slaps his shoes on his feet shuts the door and leaves
D A E
working his whole life oh what a life
-chorus-
D A
we believe that heaven's gone to a place we don't belong
F#m E
in a song that makes us sad in a world that's going mad
D A
we believe in what we want cuz it hurts us to be wrong
F#m
if i break before it ends in my heart of hearts
E
I hope you'll understand
A E
there's a school up my street with some kids i know
D A E
as blameless the snow the falling snow
A
Then a man half insane
E
shoots up half the school before taking his own
D
life
A E
oh what a life
(chorus)
(background singers A) E....
3x (wake me up when all the people wanna change) .....
A
these cops are on the streets there's people breaking into stores
F#m
the sky is falling all around us, and there's one place left to go
D
cuz i believe in something better, something we were born to receive
E
and i don't care what anyone says cuz i believe
(Chorus)
