Hotel Lights chords by Amy Cook

No capo needed



F             C
All the girls dressed like candy
                           G
Looking oh so full in love with all the world
F            C
And the boys with their messed up hair
                           G
And secrets that they keep behind their eyes


G                          F#m     C
My face was always pressed against the glass
G                     F#m  C
You were the only one who ever asked
F              G
"Why don't you come inside?"
G              F            G            C
We watched the hotel lights and I was mesmerized

F            C
Voices float through the walls
                                 G
And from the streets of New York City down below
F                     C
Some are surprised to find the world is just as small and sad
G
The higher that they climb


G                           F#m         C
Well I guess we're just the sentimental kind
G             Am        F#m
Play that Alejandro one more time
G           C
We hope for brighter days
G
Just one more war away and another step behind


F                                    Am         G
You once told me that when the night is frozen wait for the golden sun
F                                      Am    C
If that's the one thing you believe in well, then, I guess we're even, love
      G
It's comin' up


C              G      C
What once were dreams are now just souvenirs
F#m                           G
Of the people that we used to be
G          C
Like these Chelsea nights
F
I had so many things to tell you love
G            Am
But you were drunk with wine


                                 F#m
You know I've loved you from the very start
G           C                F#m
And if you should ever break my foolish heart
G
Don't waste your sad regrets
C
Don't break your tenderness
    F            C    G
The hotel lights were ours
G                    Am
No matter what comes next
     F           C     G
The hotel lights were ours
