Primeira Parte 

C               Em/G#         Am     Am7/G 
History's been leaning on me lately 
F7M                  G 
I can feel the future breathing down my neck 
C                    Em/G# 
And all the things I thought were true 
     Am               Am7/G 
When I was young, and you were too 
D9/F# 
Turned out to be broken 
      G 
And I don't know what comes next 

Refrão 

     Am              F 
In a world that has decided 
          C                G 
That it's going to lose its mind 
         Am           F              C 
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind

Segunda Parte 

         C              Em/G#             Am       Am7/G 
They've started raising walls around the world now 
     F7M                           G 
Like hackles raised upon a cornered cat 
C               Em/G# 
On the borders, in our heads 
        Am                  Am7/G 
Between things that can and can't be said 
               D9/F# 
We've stopped talking to each other 
              G 
And there's something wrong with that 

Refrão 

    Am                 F 
So before you go out searching 
       C                 G 
Don't decide what you will find 
        Am                  F              C 
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind

            C    Em 
You should know 
            Am  F#º 
you're not alone 
                  C    Em 
And that trouble comes 
             Am   F#º 
and trouble goes 
         C    Em 
How this ends 
        Am   F#º 
no one knows 
           C        Em 
So hold on tight 
              Am 
when the wind blows

Terceira Parte 

    C                 Em/G#           Am   Am7/G 
The wind blew both of us to sand and sea 
    D9/F#                                  G 
And where the dry land stands is hard to say 
       C                 Em/G# 
As the current drags us by the shore 
   Am            Am7/G 
We can no longer say for sure 
       D9/F#                        G 
Who's drowning, or if they can be saved 

Refrão 

Am                         F 
But when you're out there floundering 
        C                G 
Like a lighthouse I will shine 
        Am             F               C 
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind 

       Am               F 
Like a beacon reaching out 
            C              G 
To you and yours from me and mine 
        Am             F               C 
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind 

     Am               F 
In a world that has decided 
          C                G 
That it's going to lose its mind 
         Am            F              C 
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
