Intro: E | … | A E | …  } 2 times

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

Instrumental: E | … | A E | …

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

Instrumental: E | … | E | …

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

Instrumental: E | E | E | E

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

Chorus:
            E                  A
     If the sun don’t shine on me today,
            C#m
     If the subways flood
             Badd11
     And the bridges break…

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

Instrumental: E | … | A E | …

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