Am Dm E Am

[Verse]

N.C.
I woke up in a modern world
            Dm
And there's nothing I can do
         E
While I read the latest, from the breaking
Am
Story on the news

People swear they say it's fake
    Dm
And look up to our leader
E
As he speaks from a mind so bleak
Am
He preys on his believers


Everyone's bitter, pointing their fingers
Dm
Seeing the worst in each other
E
But people are not, their skin, or their God
   Am
Or who they claim their lover

I think that people are made so unequal
Dm
Some are born good and some evil
    E
And so here I pray, for one single day
     Am
That we can live here peaceful

 [Chorus]

N.C.
The world is falling down
    Dm
And nothing ever changes
E
1, 2, 3 as the shots ring out
    Am
But nothing ever changes

The world is falling down
    Dm
But nothing ever changes
E
We're all part of a silent crowd
Am
Cuz nothing ever changes


[Verse]

N.C.
12 more killed at a local bar
Dm             D
Some were only 21
        E                        Am
But the NRA has bills to pay and feeds us with more guns

So we send our thoughts and prayers
D
To those who lost their lives
        E
But the cycle stays and in a couple of days
Am
Bullets fly and a few more die

                                     Dm
I'm not a scholar, I'm not an expert but if you fight fire with fire
E
I'm pretty sure, it only gets worse
    Am
The flames burn even brighter

I know that I'm not alone
Dm
When I say I'm sick of the violence
E
Voice our anger on our phones
Am
But in real life we're quiet (shhh)


[Chorus]

N.C.
The world is falling down
    Dm
And nothing ever changes
E
1, 2, 3 as the shots ring out
    Am
But nothing ever changes

The world is falling down
    Dm
But nothing ever changes
E
We're all part of a silent crowd
Am
Cuz nothing ever changes


[Bridge]

Am
I hope that when, I fast forward
Dm
Twenty something years
E                             Am
We no longer live our days in hatred or in fear
N.C.
And live to be, kind and free
Dm
To do unto each other
E
As you'd have 'em do, unto you
Am
United undercover


[Chorus]

N.C.
The world is falling down
    Dm
And nothing ever changes
E
1, 2, 3 as the shots ring out
    Am
But nothing ever changes
N.C.
The world is falling down
    Dm
But nothing ever changes
E
We're all part of a silent crowd
Am
Cuz nothing ever changes

Am
The world is falling down
    Dm
But nothing ever changes

E
The world is falling down
    Am
But nothing ever changes

N.C.
The world is falling down
    Dm
But nothing ever changes

E
The world is falling down now
Am
Cuz nothing ever changes
