Intro: B | … | E B | …  } 2 times

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

Instrumental: B | … | E B | …

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

Instrumental: B | … | B | …

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

Instrumental: B | B | B | B

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

Chorus:
            B                  E
     If the sun don’t shine on me today,
            G#m
     If the subways flood
             F#add11
     And the bridges break…

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

Instrumental: B | … | E B | …

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