Verse 1:
E MajorE       AbmAbm       A augmentedA         E MajorE    BB

'Cause I am tired of living life in the shadows

When you look down from your house on the lights of the city
              E MajorE
Do you try to guess which light is mine?
E MajorE       AbmAbm     A augmentedA       E MajorE    BB
When you come down, I won't be here any longer

There will be a note for you under my front doormat

'Cause I am tired of living life in the shadows
GbmGbm            AbAb    A augmentedA    BB   E MajorE
Don't know where I'll go, but I'm leaving here tonight

GbmGbm            AbAb    A augmentedA    BB   E MajorE
Don't know where I'll go, but I'm leaving here tonight


Notes:
-The AbAb to A augmentedA transition in the chorus is quick beat; you can definitely hear it in the
song, but if you're a novice (like me) and the transition is a little quick, you can skip the Aflat and just
land on the A augmentedA
