[Verse]

Em              
   The streets 
          C
I used to walk on
Em                   C
  Are full of broken glass
Em               
  And everywhere 
    C
I'm looking
        Em             C
There's memories of my past
Em           C
  The filthy flat in Fulham
Em                     C
  The smell of sex and gas
  Em          C
I never, ever really knew
      Em             C
Where I was sleeping next
 
 
[Chorus]

         G
When the whole wide 

world's against you
           F#m
And you're standing in the rain
     Em
When all your friends 

have let you down
    C
And treat you with disdain
         G
When the whole wide

 world's against you
           F#m
And that's got you on the run
        Em
And you think the party's over
         C          
But it's only just, 
            Em C Em C
only just begun
 
 
[Verse]

Em                   C
  Behind the bars of prison
Em                   C
  You never guess it now
           Em                
They wanna break your balls 
        C
in those slimy walls 
        Em         C
And the guards are lardy louts
Em                     C
  The cameras that are watching you
     Em           C
They see a sullen face
       Em             
Get me out the door, 
              C
can't keep me in no more
    Em                C
I'm breaking down the gates
 
 
[Chorus]

         G
When the whole wide world's against you
           F#m
And you're standing

 in the rain
         Em
And your walls are 

one beside you
   C
To put you up again
         G
When the whole wide 

world's against you
           F#m
And that's got you on the run
        Em
And you think the party's over
         C          
But it's only just, 
            Em   C
only just begun

[Bridge]

         G
When the dreary 

streets of London
     F#m
They never promise much
  Em
A dead end job to nowhere
    C
And all your dreams are crushed
 
 
[Chorus]

         G
When the whole wide 

world's against you
           F#m
And you're standing in the rain
     Em
When all your friends 

have let you down
    C
And treat you with disdain
        G
And you think the party's over
         F#m
But it's only just begun
      Em
Let's raise a glass,

 get up and dance
       C                    
'Cause life's just hit and, 
                 Em   C
hit and, hit and run
 
 

[Outro]

        Em C      Em
Hit and run, yeah
C                 Em C Em C
 The party's over
Em   C Em C
  Ayy
Em C                   Em
   World’s against you
