Tom : D
A Asus2 A D5
[Verse 1]
A Asus2
I ain't no wide eyed rebel
A Asus2 D5
Oh, but I ain't no preacher's son
A Asus2 A Asus2 D5 A
And now I see the trouble and all the loving that I've done
[Chorus]
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
And the world ain't no harder than it's ever been
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
Looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend
[Verse 2]
A Asus2 A Asus2 D5
So much superstition and so much worry in my heart
A Asus2 A Asus2 D5 A
I need a new religion it's time to make a brand new start
[Chorus]
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
And the world ain't no easier than it's ever been
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
Looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend
[Bridge]
F#m/B A
Remember when we were in California
F#m/B A
We were so much happier then
F#m/B A
Now we're back in New York Cit
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
Looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend
[Verse 3]
A Asus2 A
And now the clocks are running
A Asus2 D5
And no one knows where time goes
A Asus2 A
You know the moon is stunning
A Asus2 D5 A
It's only shadows that she shows
[Chorus]
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
And the world ain't no harder than it's ever been
F#m/B Dmaj7 A
Looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend
[Outro]
A Asus2 A
I ain't no wide eyed rebel
A Asus2 D5
But I ain't no preacher's son
