Intro: A | … | D A | …  } 2 times

                A
Pack yourself a toothbrush, dear.
                D        A
Pack yourself a favorite blouse.
           A
Take a withdrawal slip,
                 D       A
Take all of your savings out.
                   F#m        E
‘Cause if we don’t leave this town
               D       A
We might never make it out.
          F#m     E
I was not born to drown.
            A
Baby, come on.

Instrumental: A | … | D A | …

                   A
Forget what Father Brennan said,
            D       A
We were not born in sin.
             A
Leave a note on your bed,
                D           A
Let your mother know you’re safe.
           F#m      E
And by the time she wakes
                  D           A
We’ll have driven through the state,
                  F#m         E
We’ll have driven through the night.
            A
Baby, come on.

Instrumental: A | … | A | …

Chorus:
            A
     If the sun don’t shine on me today,
                D       F#m
     And if the subways flood
         E       A
     And bridges break,
              A
     Will you lay yourself down
     And dig your grave,
                 D     F#m
     Or will you rail against
         E     A
     The dying day?

Instrumental: A | A | A | A

            A
And when we looked outside,
              D       A
Couldn’t even see the sky.
           A
How do you pay the rent?
           D A
Is it your parents,
         F#m        E
Or is it hard work, dear,
            D    A
Holding the atmosphere?
              F#m       E
I don’t wanna live like that, yeah.

Chorus:
            A                  D
     If the sun don’t shine on me today,
            F#m
     If the subways flood
             Eadd11
     And the bridges break…

Bridge:
   F#m E/G# A     D     F#m E     A
   Jesus Christ can’t save me tonight.
        F#m E/G# A
   Put on your dress,
     D    F#m  E         A
   Yes, wear something nice.
      F#m E/G# A  D       F#m  E  A
   Decide on me, yeah, decide on us.
   F#m E/G# A  D   F#m   E      A
   Oh, oh, oh, Illinois, Illinois.

Instrumental: A | … | D A | …

                A
Pack yourself a toothbrush, dear,
                D        A
Pack yourself a favorite blouse.
           A
Take a withdrawal slip,
                 D       A
Take all of your savings out,
                   F#m        E
‘Cause if we don’t leave this town,
               D       A
We might never make it out.
