VERSE
C                Am
  Everywhere the sun is shining.
Dm               G
  All around the world it's shining.
C                Am               Dm    G      G F
  But cold winds blow across your mi----nd.

Confusion - it's such a terrible shame.

Confusion - you don't know what you're sayin'.
F                  C/E               Dm          C
  You've lost your love and you just can't carry on (can't carry on)
Fm                 C/E              Dm            F/G (break)
  You feel there's no-one there for you to lean on - to lean on

  Every night you're out there darlin'.
Dm              G
  You're always out there runnin'.
C                Am                Dm     G      G F

  You've lost your love and you just can't carry on (can't carry on)

  Dark is the road you wander.

  And as you stand there under.
C            Am                  Dm      G      G F
  The starry sky, you feel sad insi------de.

Confusion - you know it's drivin' me wild.
   F                    Fm                   Fm G
Confusion - it comes as no big surprise.
F                  C/E               Dm          C
  You've lost your love and you just can't carry on (can't carry on)
Fm                 C/E              Dm            F/G (break)
  You feel there's no-one there for you to lean on - to lean on
