G      D                       G D
Stereo up and the windows down
Bm       D                          G D
Same old city, still driving around
G             D                     G D
It's the only place I clear my mind
Bm           D                         G D
Passed the 7-Eleven and the neon signs

[Verse 2]
Bm      D                       G D
I wanna go back to the nineties
Bm        D             G D
And go to New York City
Bm         D               G D
When everything was easier
Bm           D               G D
Why can't it be much simpler

[Chorus]
   Bm      D                           G D
So hold me close, then hold me tighter
          Bm          D           G D
Don't you let me slip into danger
             Bm        D                         G D
So won't you hold me close, then hold me tighter
           Bm (Strum once)
'Cause the world I know is falling apart
                              D
Yeah, the world I know is falling apart

[Verse 3]
  Bm      D                   G    D
Hold your breath and count to ten
 Bm     D                    G   D  Bm
I wanna know if you're still living
                D                G    D
'Cause everyone needs a place to hide
Bm            D                           G     D
When they get scared in the middle of the night

[Chorus]
   Bm      D                           G D
So hold me close, then hold me tighter
          Bm          D           G D
Don't you let me slip into danger
             Bm                  D              G D
So won't you hold me close, then hold me tighter
           Bm              D
'Cause the world I know is falling apart
          G               D        Bm
Yeah, the world I know is falling apart

[Outro]
     D        Bm   D G
It's falling apart

It's falling apart

It's falling apart
