Verse 1

F                               Am
The gap that grows between our lives
                        Dm
The gap our parents never had
                                Bb
Stop those thoughts control your mind
                C#              C
Replace those things that you despise
        Am              Bb
Oh you're old I hear you say
             C                Dm
It doesn't mean that I don't care
        Gm              Bb
I don't believe in it anymore
        C#                      C*
Pathetic acts for a worthless cause

Pre-Chorus (x2)
Dm      Gm      C               Am
In the beginning when we were winning
Bb                      Asus4  A
When our smiles were genuine

Chorus
Bb      C               F   C   Dm   Gm   Asus4 A
But now unforgiven, the everlasting everlasting

Verse 2 (chords same as verse 1)
The world is full of refugees,
they're just like you and just like me
But as people we have a choice
to end the void with all it's force
So don't forget or don't pretend
it's all the same now in the end
It was said in a different light
destroys my days and haunts my nights

Pre-Chorus (x2)
Chorus

Guitar Solo (same as verse chords)
Pre Chorus (x2)
Chorus (x2)
End with a Dm
