[Verse 1]
Bm
Wild, wild, wild horses tell me
G
Where did they all go?
A
They used to run, used to run, used to run right here
Bm
And all I see is an empty road
 
[Verse 2]
Bm
Wild, wild, wild roses tell me
G
Where did they all go?
A
When I was young, I was young, they would spread like fire
Bm
And now the roots don't know where to grow
 
[Chorus]
Bm
Did it come overnight or did it come on slow?
G
It’s out of our hands and it's out of control
A
I don't think that this is the world we used to know
Bm
Is the world we used to know
 
Bm  G  A  Bm   x4
 
[Verse 3]
Bm
White, white, white oceans tell me
G
Where do you lead?
A
When the sun and the sky come to meet at night
Bm
I wonder, would you carry me?
 
[Verse 4]
Bm
Why won’t you tell me
G
If I'm on my own
A
You used to be, used to be, used to be right here
Bm
And now I don't know where to go
 
[Chorus]
Bm
Did it come overnight or did it come on slow?
G
It’s out of our hands and it's out of control
A
I don't think that this is the world we used to know
Bm
Is the world we used to know
 
Bm  G  A  Bm    x4
 
Bm
I could show you places that we had
G
In the world we used to know
A
Take me home and show me love can last
Bm
There's a world we used to know
 
[Chorus]
Bm
Did it come overnight or did it come on slow?
G
It’s out of our hands and it's out of control
A
I don't think that this is the world we used to know
Bm
Is the world we used to know
