The Ballad Of

       C                                G
There are eight billion people in this world
                           Dm
Eight billion lives are changing
                G
I never felt so alone
       C                           G
Would you consider me in spite of this
                     Dm
I'm always the one who loses
                     G
Would you make me better?

[Chorus]
   F    C   Dm                 Am
How, how, how will we make this work
  F   C   Dm             G
Why do you have to be so far
              C                  Am
It's all clear now, I'm gonna keep you
      G      Dm             G
Like flowing water into forever

         C                    G
That look is all I need to get by
                       Dm
Like living in some illusion
                 G
I never felt so alive
  C                                    G
I know that there will be flaws around us
                                Dm
The silly wars that we'll be fighting
                 G
Yes, I'll be fighting

[Chorus]
   F    C   Dm                 Am
How, how, how will we make this work
  F   C   Dm             G
Why do you have to be so far
              C                  Am
It's all clear now, I'm gonna keep you
      G      Dm             G
Like flowing water into forever

         C                    G
That look is all I need to get by
                       Dm
Like living in some illusion
                 G
I never felt so alive
  C                                    G
I know that there will be flaws around us
                                Dm
The silly wars that we'll be fighting
                 G
Yes, I'll be fighting
              C                  Am
It's all clear now, I'm gonna keep you
      G       Dm           G
Like flowing water into forever

       Dm       G
Into forever now
   Am             G                break
I'll be the one who holds you dear
        C                               G
There are eight billion people in this world
                          Dm
Eight billion lives are changing
                      C
And you're the one I need
