By:   Tears for Fears

[intro:]
Fmaj7                        Em
     Advice for the young at heart
                 Fmaj7  {2 hits}
Soon we will be older
                      Em   {band kicks in}
When we gonna make it work
 
 | Fmaj7 |  | Em |   | 
 | Fmaj7 |  | Em | Em    E11|
 
[verse: 1]
Fmaj7                            Em
Too many people living in a secret world
                Fmaj7
While they play mothers and fathers
                         Em    
We play little boys and girls
Dm9 (or Dm)                    Cmaj7
         When we gonna make it work


Fmaj7                              Em
I could be happy I could be quite naive
          Fmaj7
It's only me and my shadows
                    Em
Happy in our make believe    sooon
 
[pre-chorus:]
Gm7             Bb
   And with the hounds at bay
      Am7 
I'll call your bluff   hey_________ 
Gm7             Bb
   Cos it would be okay
    Am7 
To walk on tiptoes every day
            Gm7                      Bb
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
              Am7               
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
             Gm7                           Bb
Cos to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
               Am7                     D7    
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
 
[chorus:]
Fmaj7 {hit}                    Em
     Advice for the young at heart
                 Fmaj7
Soon we will be older
                      Em
When we gonna make it work
 
[verse: 2]
Fmaj7                           Em
Love is a promise, love is a souvenir
           Fmaj7                             Em
Once given never forgotten, never let it disappear
                   Dm9 (or Dm)
This could be our last chance
                      Cmaj7
When we gonna make it work
 
[pre-chorus:]
                Gm7      Bb    Am7
Working hour is over
Gm7              Bb
     And how it makes me weep
       Am7 
Cos someone sent my soul to sleep
            Gm7                      Bb
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
              Am7               
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
             Gm7                           Bb
Cos to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
              Am7                      D7
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
