    [Intro]

Em C Em C
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em                       C
   The streets I used to walk on
Em                   C
  Are full of broken glass
Em                   C
  And everywhere I'm looking
        Em             C
There's memories of my past
Em           C
  The filthy flat in Fulham
Em                     C
  The smell of sex and gas
  Em          C
I never, ever really knew
      Em             C
Where I was sleeping next
 
 
[Chorus]
         G
When the whole wide world's against you
           F#m
And you're standing in the rain
     Em
When all your friends have let you down
    C
And treat you with disdain
         G
When the whole wide world's against you
           F#m
And that's got you on the run
        Em
And you think the party's over
         C                      Em  C Em C
But it's only just, only just begun
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em                   C
  Behind the bars of prison
Em                   C
  You never guess it now
           Em                       C
They wanna break your balls in those slimy walls
        Em         C
And the guards are lardy louts
Em                     C
  The cameras that are watching you
     Em           C
They see a sullen face
       Em                          C
Get me out the door, can't keep me in no more
    Em                C
I'm breaking down the gates
 
 
[Chorus]
         G
When the whole wide world's against you
           F#m
And you're standing in the rain
         Em
And your walls are one beside you
   C
To put you up again
         G
When the whole wide world's against you
           F#m
And that's got you on the run
        Em
And you think the party's over
         C                      Em  C
But it's only just, only just begun
 
 
[Instrumental]
Em C
Em C Em C
Em C Em C
Em C Em C
 
 
[Bridge]
         G
When the dreary streets of London
     F#m
They never promise much
  Em
A dead end job to nowhere
    C
And all your dreams are crushed
 
 
[Chorus]
         G
When the whole wide world's against you
           F#m
And you're standing in the rain
     Em
When all your friends have let you down
    C
And treat you with disdain
        G
And you think the party's over
         F#m
But it's only just begun
      Em
Let's raise a glass, get up and dance
       C                                     Em  C
'Cause life's just hit and, hit and, hit and run
 
 
[Outro]
        Em C      Em
Hit and run, yeah
C                 Em C Em C
 The party's over
Em   C Em C
  Ayy
Em C                   Em
   World’s against you
