A    F#m    D    A

[Verse]
            A               F#m    
When you've given all, that you can give
          D                     A
And your pockets are nearly empty.
            A                       F#m  
When you've found that hole, you're slipping through
          D                  A
And your money makes you happy
          D                  E
And your money makes you happy.

[Chorus]
                 A
Before I turn to dust
      D       E
Don't walk on by
                 A
Before I turn to rust
      D       E
Don't wave goodbye
             F#m
Before I run away
             D
From this disaster
     A               E       A    F#m    D    A 
You might not see me turn away.

[Verse]
            A               F#m
And you're working hard for everything
          D                     A
You might not realise.
            A                       F#m  
There's a light that shines, that shines in you
          D                  A
There's a voice your friends have heard
          D                  E
There's a voice your friends have heard.

[Chorus]
                 A
Before I turn to dust
      D       E
Don't walk on by
                 A
Before I turn to rust
      D       E
Don't wave goodbye
             F#m
Before I run away
             D
From this disaster
     A               E       A     D       E     
You might not see me turn away.
                 A     D       E   
Yes you turn away
             F#m
Before I run away
             D
From this disaster
     A               E  
You might not see me turn

                 A
Before I turn to dust
      D       E
Don't walk on by
                 A
Before I turn to rust
      D       E
Don't wave goodbye
             F#m
Before I run away
             D
From this disaster
     A               E 
You might not see me turn 
         A
Yes you turn
         D       E 
Yes you turn away
A     D       E
Yes you turn away
