  G				Am Asus4 Am Asus2 Am Asus4 Am F G Am7
And stay with you here tonight.

(Last verse - same chords as above. See footnote)

The headlines read these are the worst of times, I do believe it's true

I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide

I wish this summer wind could bring back paradise, but I know

If the world turned upside down baby I know

Youl'd always be around my my.
