What About Everything? Chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Holiday quiet on these [G]streets,
except for some stubborn leaves,
[C]That didn't fal[Am]l with the fall,
and now they clatter in vain
[G]Holiday sky, midnight clear,
wind is high, hard [C]to steer
Old muffler rumbles [D]like an old gihter[G]plane
In search of some rest,
in search of a [C]break
From a life of test[Am]s
where something's always at stake
[G]Where something's always so far
What about my broken car?
[C]What about my life so far?
[D]What about my dream?

[Verse 2]
What about
[C]What about eve[G]rything?
[Em]What about[D] aeroplanes?
[C]And what about [G]ships that
drank [Em]the sea?
[C]What about the [G]moon and stars?
[Em]What about[D] soldier battle scars?
[C]And all the anger[G] that they eat[D]?
[Em]I am[D] not in need
[G]

[Verse 3]
Get away and come with me,
come away with me and we'll see
[C]If I was right on that nig[Am]ht,
that a future was made
[G]Before time takes each year-
like a knife cuts it clear
[C]It's school, then work and then
[D]life that just sharpens the blade
[G]I think about time for fun,
I think about time for play
[C]Then I think about being don[Am]e,
with no resume
[G]With no one left to blame,
what about fortune and fame?
[C]What about your love to obtain?
[D]What about the ring?

[Verse 4]
What about
[C]What about eve[G]rything?
[Em]What about[D] aeroplane? And [C]what
about [G]ships that drank [Em]the sea?
What [C]about the [G]moon and stars?
[Em]What about[D] soldier battle scar[C]s?
And all the an[G]ger that they [D]eat?
[Em]I am[D] not in need

[Interlude 1]
[G]
Holiday [D]quiet on [G]these street

[Verse 5]
[Em]s,
except [D]for some reason me
[C]The hometown har[G]bor lig[Bm]hts bri[Am]ght.
The sailboats clatter in vain
[G]Holiday sky[D], midnig[G]ht cle[Em]ar,
wind is [D]high on this [C]pier
I find it [Bm]hard to [D]complain when

[Verse 6]
compared with what about
[C]What about eve[G]rything?
[Em]What about[D] aeroplanes? And w[C]hat
about [G]ships that drank [Em]the sea?
What [C]about the [G]moon [Em]in stars? What
[D]about soldier battle scars?
[C]And all the anger[G] that the[D]y eat?

[Verse 7]
What [C]about [G]aliens? [Em]What
[D]about you and me and
[C]What about gol[G]d beneath
[Em]the sea?
[C]What about when [G]buildings [Em]fall? What
[D]about that midnight phone call?
[C]The one tha[G]t wakes you
from [D]your peace?
Well [Em]I am [D]not, I am [C]no[D]t,
[Em]I am[D] not in need
