The World's Gone Wrong

[Verse 1]

They get up every morning and they go to work

He sells cars and she's a nurse

Workin' long hours is the devil's curse

Things are gettin' tight, but it could be worse

She tries hard to ignore the news

Nothing makes sense and she gets confused

Between what is false and what is true

And she worries they won't get through

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, we gotta be strong

Dark days are getting long

Looking for comfort in a song

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Evеrybody knows the world's gone wrong

[Verse 2]

They can see what's going down

Empty housеs all over town

So many lost are never found

And bad, bad signs are all around

A lot of people being put on the street

It's gettin' harder to make ends meet

He comes home every night feelin' beat

And wonders how long he can take the heat

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, we gotta be strong

Dark days are getting long

Looking for comfort in a song

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

She stares out the window and shakes her head

She can't believe the things she's read

She can't believe what's being said

Some days she can't get outta bed

She hopes this won't last forever

She needs to believe it's gonna get better

It's getting hard to keep it together

They need each other now more than ever

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, we gotta be strong

Dark days are getting long

Looking for comfort in a song

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

[Bridge]

She holds him tight and softly smiles

Says, "Baby, let's put on some Miles

And dance barefoot across the tiles

And forget our troubles for a little while"

[Outro]

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Baby, the world's gone wrong

Baby, the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong

Everybody knows the world's gone wrong
