[Verse]
G            Em  C  G                      Em   C
If not for dark,    I couldn't recognize a spark
G               Em  C     G                      Em     C  D
If not for evil,      the kind man would walk-on byyy invisible
 
G                Em C  G                              Em   C
 If-not-for the devil, how could mother Mary play the hero
G                Em  C   G                     Em C D
If-not-for baaad stuff,   the good would never be e-nough
 
 
[Chorus]
C           D                       G                Em
 If not for loneliness, a friend is somewhere in the wilderness
C                     D                       G
 If-our-love-was-ever to part ways-then   the world as I know it would
C          D       G   C
Never ever spin,  again
 
 
[Verse]

If-not-for-words of violence,   the kind whisper screams a sonic silence
G             Em C   G           Em   C     D
If not for fear,     a hope is   no - where near
G              Em C  G                              Em      C
If not for rain,      the-sun would never split the skies again
G                    Em        C        G              Em       C    D   G
I-f in-doomed-waters we should tread,    fear not, our rescue's-only up ahead

 If not for loneliness, a friend is somewhere in the wilderness
C                     D                      G
 If-our-love was-ever to part ways-then  the world as I know it would
C          D        G
Never ever spin,   again
C          D     G
Never ever spin-again

Oooh-oo-ooh x2
 
Em   C  D
 
G            Em      C
  I'm on the road to somewhere
G               Em      C
  You're on the road to somewhere

G                    Em        C        G              Em       C    D
 If-in doomed waters we should tread,    fear not, our rescue's-only up ahead
G                        Em      C     G                       Em         C
 If-not-for-Bobby-crying blue on blue,  Joy would carry on the stranger I-once knew
G              Em C    G           Em C     D
If not for fear,        a-hope-is  no-where near

C                     D                      G
 If our love was ever to part ways-then, the world as I know it would
C          D
Never ever spin
