Intro: C | … | F C | …  } 2 times

                C
Pack yourself a toothbrush, dear.
                F        C
Pack yourself a favorite blouse.

Take a withdrawal slip,
                 F       C
Take all of your savings out.
                   Am         G
‘Cause if we don’t leave this town
               F       C
We might never make it out.
          Am      G
I was not born to drown.
            C
Baby, come on.

Instrumental: C | … | F C | …

                   C
Forget what Father Brennan said,
            F       C
We were not born in sin.

Leave a note on your bed,
                F           C
Let your mother know you’re safe.
           Am       G
And by the time she wakes
                  F           C
We’ll have driven through the state,
                  Am          G
We’ll have driven through the night.
            C
Baby, come on.

Instrumental: C | … | C | …

Chorus:
            C
     If the sun don’t shine on me today,
                F       Am
     And if the subways flood
         G       C
     And bridges break,

     Will you lay yourself down
     And dig your grave,
                 F     Am
     Or will you rail against
         G     C
     The dying day?

Instrumental: C | C | C | C

            C
And when we looked outside,
              F       C
Couldn’t even see the sky.

How do you pay the rent?
           F C
Is it your parents,
         Am         G
Or is it hard work, dear,
            F    C
Holding the atmosphere?
              Am        G
I don’t wanna live like that, yeah.

Chorus:
            C                  F
     If the sun don’t shine on me today,
            Am
     If the subways flood
             G
     And the bridges break…

Bridge:
   Am G    C      F     Am  G     C
   Jesus Christ can’t save me tonight.
        Am  G   C
   Put on your dress,
     F    Am   G         C
   Yes, wear something nice.
      Am  G   C   F       Am   G  C
   Decide on me, yeah, decide on us.
   Am  G   C   F   Am    G      C
   Oh, oh, oh, Illinois, Illinois.

Instrumental: C | … | F C | …

                C
Pack yourself a toothbrush, dear,
                F        C
Pack yourself a favorite blouse.

Take a withdrawal slip,
                 F       C
Take all of your savings out,
                   Am         G
‘Cause if we don’t leave this town,
               F       C
We might never make it out.
