[Intro]
F#m7  B7  E  Esus4  E
[Verse 1]
                            E    Esus4  E
I brought a song into this world
                        F#m7
And just a melody with words
             B7
It trembles here before my eyes
                       E   Esus4 E
How can this song survive?
[Verse 2]
                              E   Esus4  E
I brought it to the tower of gold
                    F#m7
In my coat of many holes
         B7
I came unarmed, they've all got knives
                      E    Esus4  E
How can this song survive?
[Chorus]
         F#m7                     B7
Oh, now, I can't help wondering how it is
     A                  E
How someone like you exists
G#                          C#m
When all around you bullets fly
          A              E
You don't seem to notice them
     B7                   E    Esus4  E   Esus4  E  Esus4  E
Oh, how can this song survive?
[Verse 3]
                             E   Esus4  E
I'll never leave this song alone
                           F#m7
I'm gonna keep it safe and warm
              B7
For hate is strong and darkness thrives
                       E   Esus4  E
How can this song survive?
[Instrumental]
E  F#m7  B7  E  Esus4  E
[Chorus]
         F#m7                   B7
Oh, now, I see the game but I'm up against
     A                  E
No wonder I feel so afraid
G#                      C#m
For every song you ever heard
          A              E
How many more have died at birth
     B7                        E    Esus4  E   Esus4  E  Esus4  E
Oh, how, how can this song survive?
[Verse 4]
                            E    Esus4  E
I brought a song into this world
                             F#m7
And just a melody with words
            B7
It trembles here before my eyes
                       E   Esus4  E
How can this song survive?
[Coda]
         F#m7                    B7
I came unarmed, they've all got knives
                       E    Esus4  E
How can this song survive?
         F#m7            B7
Until we finally say goodbye
                           E    Esus4  E
How, how can this song survive?
  Esus4   E   Esus4  E
I wonder how
Esus4     E   Esus4  E
I wonder why
Esus4  E  Esus4  E
It now
