[Verse 1]
Em
I thought we figured out how not to spill blood
Am G
I thought we figured out to walk away
Am Em
I thought we found that love was not a failure
Am G
Decided that the sea would have no waves
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F#m
And it kills me 'cause I get worked up and you get worked up
G Am
And we get worked up for nothing, yeah
Em F#m
I get worked up and they get worked up
G Am
And we get worked up for what?
[Chorus]
Em G Em
Calm down, calm down
G Em G
Calm down, oh, calm down
[Verse 2]
Em
Is this the way it is for other people?
G
I wonder if they feel it like I do
Em
I know there is more than than there is evil
G
A war is just a waste of me and you
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F#m
And it kills me 'cause I get worked up and you get worked up
G Am
And we get worked up for nothing, yeah
Em F#m
I get worked up and they get worked up
G Am
And we get worked up for what?
[Chorus]
Em G Em
Calm down, calm down
G Em G
Calm down, oh, calm down
Em G Em
Calm down, calm down

Calm down, oh, calm down
[Bridge]
Em G
Time to figure it out, when people living in doubt
Am G
Brother, look further, take care of each other
Em G
Stressing over, about if you need it, then you can shout
Am G
My sister, look further, yeah, you're the preserver
Em G
Time to figure it out, when people living in doubt
Am G
I get worked up and you get worked up and
Em G
Stressing over, about if you need it, then you can shout
Am C
We get worked up for what?
[Chorus]

Calm down, calm down
