Am                             D        D7
I know you feel these are the worst of times

G       G/F         C  Em
I do believe it's true

Fmaj7       G/F              Fmaj7       G/F
When people lock their doors  and hide inside

Fmaj7 G/F             Am          E
Rumor has it it's the end of paradise

       Am          C/G                  
But I know  if the world just passed us by

We'll make this a world for two

F        C/E          Dm7            Dm7/G G7
Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime

 F             C/E             Dm7
We'll take the best forget the rest

Could bring back paradise

       Am           C/G
But I know  if the world turned upside down

Baby I know  you'd always be around my my
