There'll be no more pain

We can explain, we found the force, we're back on course

Bridge:
C                G
Used to say I love you but I was straight insane
  F#m             Em
I always left you holding the weight of my pain
    F            G
'Cause I couldn't stay for even one more day
 Bb              C
I broke two hearts, I couldn't share the parts
      D
Then I ran away

A
People try to crash right down
A
Shoot at the sky, a craze with rage

We're all good people if you go deep down

But we gotta be in keeping with the brand new age

The world is spinnin'

We share the wage, we cause no pain

We can explain, we lost the force, we went off course
