VERSE 1

|G |Cadd2
There's a way, I've been told
|G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2
If we walk together, keeps us from this cold
|G |Cadd2
On the sidewalks of these streets
|G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |
Lie the broken dreams, scattered at our feet

CHORUS

|G |Am7 |
Lead me on, I don't mind
|Em7 |C |
I'll come forward laughing every time
|G |D |C
All my friends, they've gone underground
|D |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2
Go underground

VERSE 2

|G |Cadd2 |
There's a shadow on this land
|G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2
A growing darkness, cruel and senseless hand
|G |Cadd2
This block won't be the same
|G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |
Now the music's there, but somehow some things changed yeah--yeah

CHORUS

|G |Am7 |
Lead me on, I don't mind
|Em7 |C |
I'll come forward laughing every time
|G |D |C
All my friends they've gone underground
|G |Am7 |
I got burned, left too quick
|Em7 |C |
Got myself caught outside the heart of it
|G |D |C
All my friends they've gone underground
|D |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |
Go underground-----------
|C |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |
Go underground-----------

VERSE 3

|G |Cadd2
There's a song that I've heard
|G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2
Rising up above the streets, of this crumbling world
|G |Cadd2
'Bout the sadness in every day
|G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2
How it leaves and takes, a bit of your faith away hey hey hey

CHORUS

|G |Am7 |
Lead me on, I don't mind
|Em7 |C |
I'll come forward laughing every time
|G |D |C
All my friends they've gone underground
|G |Am7 |
I got burned, left too quick
|Em7 |C |
Got myself caught outside the heart of it
|G |D |C
All my friends they've gone underground
|D |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |
Go underground-----------
|C |G |Cadd2 |G |Cadd2 |
Go underground-----------
