[Intro]
| Bm | F#m | E | - |
| Bm | F#m | E | - |
| Bm | F#m | E | - |
| Bm | F#m | E | - |

[Verse 1]
Bm           F#m
Little fish, boat's too full,
E
down you go
Bm           F#m           E
Breathing in salt and fuel, tiny gulps
   Bm             F#m
Statistically it's   commonplace,
      E
you're not alone
   Bm            F#m             E
So end like this instead of shot back at home

[Chorus]
D         A            E
 The world is a strange place
Bm         F#m               E
Quiet like bullets in a briefcase
        D    A                     E
Why do I feel like I'm in the wrong place?
Bm         F#m               E
Quiet like bullets in a briefcase
Bm         F#m               E
Quiet like bullets in a briefcase

[Verse 2]
Bm          F#m
Little man, Northern France,
E
winter's cold
      Bm                  F#m
Eight hundred hours, four thousand miles,
E
feet alone
   Bm               F#m
No one I know would even dare it,
E
let alone
Bm          F#m            E
Shanty town bleeding out in the shadows

[Chorus]
D         A            E
 The world is a strange place
Bm         F#m               E
Quiet like bullets in a briefcase
        D    A                E
Why do I feel like I'm in the wrong place?
Bm         F#m               E
Quiet like bullets in a briefcase
Bm         F#m               E
Quiet like bullets in a briefcase
