[Intro]
G F#m Em C D (x2)
Gm Cm F Bb
[Verse]
Gm Cm
You used to bowl around after dark
F Bb
Blowing your hope and your smoke in the rain
Gm Cm
I lit a little fire off your chimney spark
F Bb
And I knew I would never see you naked again
[Chorus]
Cm D Gm
The whole world is our playground
Cm D Gm
The whole world is our playground
Cm D Gm
The whole world is our playground
[Bridge]
G Em
Take the night by the hand
Am D
And set it on fire again
G D
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Em
where to begin
C D
This song from my hide away
G
But I know that you know
D Em
I know you've been where I've been
C D
It's killing you everyday
C D
Healing you anyway
Gm
Gm Cm
If I ever heard this song on the radio
F Bb
I swear I'd go out of my mind
Gm Cm
But I try not to think about you every minute or so
F Bb
They - sold you as a prize
[Chorus]
Cm D Gm
The whole world is our playground
Cm D Gm
The whole world is our playground
Cm D Gm
The whole world is our playground
[Bridge]
G Em
Take the night by the hand
Am D
And set it on fire again
G
The kitchen light is too bright
D Em
And the light of your mind is a sin
C D
It's killing you everyday
C D
Healing you anyway
[Outro]
Gm (x8)
