Lyrics

[Intro]
| Ab Eb | Bb - | Ab Eb | Bb - |
| Ab Eb | Bb - | Ab Eb | Bb - |

[Verse 1]
Ab                 Eb            Bb
  I couldn't sleep,  I had to listen
Ab        Eb                 Bb
  To a conscience, knowing so  well
Ab                  Eb          Bb
  That nothing comes  from indifference
         Ab  Eb         Bb
I look inside  of myself
Ab           Eb                Bb
  Will I find  some kind of conviction?
Ab             Eb             Bb
  Or will I bid  the hero farewell?
Ab            Eb                 Bb
  Or will I be  defined by things  that could have been?
        Ab  Eb              Bb
I guess time  will only tell
        Ab  Eb              Bb
I guess time  will only tell
                  Ab
So don't let it be

[Chorus]
Before tomorrow comes
Eb
  Before you turn away
Bb                     Ab
  Take the hand in need
Before tomorrow comes
Eb                         Bb
  You can change everything

[Bridge]
            | Ab Eb | Bb - |

[Verse 2]
Ab                Eb         Bb
  I curse my worth  and every  comfort
Ab               Eb           Bb
  That blinded me  for way too  long
Ab
  Damn it all,
Eb               Bb
  I'll make a difference from now on
           Ab        Eb         Bb
'Cause I'm wide awake  to it all
           Ab        Eb         Bb
'Cause I'm wide awake  to it all
                  Ab
So don't let it be

[Chorus]
Before tomorrow comes
Eb
  Before you turn away
Bb                     Ab
  Take the hand in need
Before tomorrow comes
Eb                    Db   Ab/C Bb
  You can change everything
Does anyone care

[Interlude]
         Ab                Eb
It ain't right, what we're doing
Bb
  Does anyone care
         Ab                 Eb
It ain't right, where we're going
Bb
  Does anyone dare
     Ab           Eb
Justify how we're living
Bb                         Ab  Eb Bb
  Does anyone here care at all?
                  Ab
So don't let it be

[Chorus]
Before tomorrow comes
Eb
  Before you turn away
Bb                     Ab
  Take the hand in need
Before tomorrow comes
Eb                          Bb
  You can change everything,  ah!

[Outro]
           Ab            Eb           Bb
We could be  so much more  than we are
           Ab            Eb           Bb
We could be  so much more  than we are
           Ab            Eb           Bb
We could be  so much more  than we are
               Ab       Eb
Oh this much I know Hey,
    Bb
hey eh!
