Verse 1:
 A       D         A
I know I loved you then
  A       E         D A
I think I love you still
A        E          Gbm
But this prophecy of ours
    D                    Esus4 E
Has come back dressed to kill
A       D        A
Three stones on a mountain
A           E          D  A
Three small holes in a field
A      E            Gbm
You've given me the big dream
   D                  Esus4 E
But you can't make it real
 
Chorus:
A   E     D
O, wicked world
      E                    A
Just think what could have been
Db7     Gbm      E       A
  Jerusalem, New York, Berlin
            D
All I do is lose, but baby
 E                A
  All I want's to win
Db7     Gbm      E       A
  Jerusalem, New York, Berlin
 
Verse 2:
  A       D        A
A hundred years or more
    A         E      D A
It feels like such a dream
A  E            Gbm           D   Esus4 E
An endless conversation since 1917
A         D         A
Now the battery is too hot
     A       E          D A
It's burning up in its tray
A      E            Gbm
Young marriages are melting
    D                 Esus4 E
And dying where they lay
 
Chorus:
A   E     D
O, wicked world
      E                    A
Just think what could have been
Db7     Gbm      E       A
  Jerusalem, New York, Berlin
            D
All I do is lose, but baby
 E                A
  All I want's to win
Db7     Gbm      E       A
  Jerusalem, New York, Berlin
 
Verse 3:
    A             D      A
Our tongues will fall so still
    A          E     D  A
Our teeth will all decay
A E                 Gbm
A minute feels much longer
      D               Esus4 E
With nothing left to say
    A       D       A
So let them win the battle
    A         E       D A
But don't let them restart
A     E        Gbm
That genocidal feeling
     D               Esus4 E
That beats in every heart
 
Chorus:
A   E     D
O, wicked world
      E                    A
Just think what could have been
Db7     Gbm      E       A
  Jerusalem, New York, Berlin
            D
All I do is lose, but baby
 E                A
  All I want's to win
Db7     Gbm      E       A
  Jerusalem, New York, Berlin
