🎸 Verse 1:
Em            C
  The streets I used to walk on
Em          C
 Are full of broken glass
Em          C
 And everywhere I'm looking
    Em       C
There's memories of my past
Em      C
 The filthy flat in Fulham
Em           C
 The smell of sex and gas
 Em     C
I never, ever really knew
   Em       C
Where I was sleeping next

🎸 Chorus:
     G
When the whole wide world's against you
      F#m
And you're standing in the rain
   Em
When all your friends have let you down
  C
And treat you with disdain
     G
When the whole wide world's against you
      F#m
And that's got you on the run
    Em
And you think the party's over
     C           Em C Em C
But it's only just, only just begun


🎸 Verse 2:
Em          C
 Behind the bars of prison
Em          C
 You never guess it now
      Em            C
They wanna break your balls in those slimy walls
    Em     C
And the guards are lardy louts
Em           C
 The cameras that are watching you
   Em      C
They see a sullen face
    Em             C
Get me out the door, can't keep me in no more
  Em        C
I'm breaking down the gates


🎸 Chorus:
     G
When the whole wide world's against you
      F#m
And you're standing in the rain
     Em
And your walls are one beside you
  C
To put you up again
     G
When the whole wide world's against you
      F#m
And that's got you on the run
    Em
And you think the party's over
     C           Em C
But it's only just, only just begun


🎸 Instrumental:
Em C
Em C Em C
Em C Em C
Em C Em C


🎸 Bridge:
     G
When the dreary streets of London
   F#m
They never promise much
 Em
A dead end job to nowhere
  C
And all your dreams are crushed


🎸 Chorus:
     G
When the whole wide world's against you
      F#m
And you're standing in the rain
   Em
When all your friends have let you down
  C
And treat you with disdain
    G
And you think the party's over
     F#m
But it's only just begun
   Em
Let's raise a glass, get up and dance
    C                   Em C
'Cause life's just hit and, hit and, hit and run


🎸 Outro:
    Em C   Em
Hit and run, yeah
C         Em C Em C
 The party's over
Em  C Em C
 Ayy
Em C          Em
  World’s against you
