[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
G
I’ve assembled myself
Em
and I’ve poisoned the well
C G
I’ve cursed and I cried out for help
G
Now I run in this haze
Em
trying to backtrack the traces
Am7 D
to where I first saw that smile on your face
G
And to hell with it all
Em
I might win I might fall
C G
we said it was all for the best
Am G
here we silently bowed
Em D
and we made our vows
C D G C G C
It was us against the world
[Verse 2]
G
I was lost you were hurt
Em
we carved our names in the dirt
C G
and sealed our confessions in blood
G
when we walked down the aisle
Em
the trees trembled and smiled
Am D
we could have walked for a thousand years
G
But we picked the wrong trail
Em
I don’t know where we failed
C G
well I guess we weren’t blessed from the start
Am G
But we held on to our dream
Em D
and we sang out our theme
C D G
It was us against the world
[Chorus]
D
But the wind lost direction
C
the sky its reflection
G C G
all the colors blurred into grey
D
we got scared of the ones
Em
that sang for no reason
Am7 D
while the days just faded away
G
Well I know that they say
Em
that all flesh is hay
C G
but it won’t give me no time to rest
Am G
I’ll be home by tonight
Em D
so don’t shut out the light
C D G
‘cause it’s us against the world
[Violin Solo]
G Em C G Em Am7 D G Em C G Am G Em D C D G
[Chorus]
D
But the wind lost direction
C
the sky its reflection
G C G
all the colors blurred into grey
D
we got scared of the ones
Em
that sang for no reason
Am7 D
while the days just faded away
G
Well I know that they say

that all flesh is hay
C G
but it won’t give me no time to rest
Am7 G
I’ll be home by tonight
Em D
so don’t shut out the light
C
‘cause it’s us
C
yes it’s us
G Em C G Em D C D G
against the world
