Ordinary World — Duran Duran
Verse one
Bm D E
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Bm D E
Thought I heard you talking softly
Bm D E
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio
Bm D E
Still I can’t escape the ghost of you
Bm
What is happening to it all
F#
Crazy some say
C#m D
Where is the life that I recognise? Gone away
Chorus
A Em7
But I won’t cry for yesterday
A7 N* D
There’s an ordinary world somehow I have to find
A Em7 A7
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
N* D
I will learn to survive
Verse two
Bm D E
Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say
Bm D E
Pride will tear us both apart
Bm
Well now pride’s gone out the window
D E
Cross the rooftops, runaway
Bm D E
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
Bm
What is happening to me
F#
Crazy some say
C#m D
Where is my friend when I need you most? Gone away
Chorus
A Em7
But I won’t cry for yesterday
A7 N* D
There’s an ordinary world somehow I have to find
A Em7 A7
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
N* D
I will learn to survive
Instrumental
Bm D E Bm D E Bm D E Bm D E
Bm F# C#m D
Verse three
Bm D E
Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed
Bm D E
Feared today forgot tomorrow
Bm D E
Here beside the news of holy war and holy need
Bm D E
Ours is just a little sorrow talk
Chorus
A Em7
But I won’t cry for yesterday
A7 N* D
There’s an ordinary world somehow I have to find
A Em7 A7
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
N* D
I will learn to survive
A Em7
Every world is my world (I will learn to survive)
A Em7
Any world is my world (I will learn to survive)
A Em7
Any world is my world (I will learn to survive)
A Em7
Every world is my world (I will learn to survive)
