Verse 1:
C majorC       E minorEm  A minorAm      G+G      A minorAm *
 I'm getting tired  of watching other people go
C majorC        E minorEm           A minorAm
The lights on my street never come o - -n
    G+G       A minorAm *riff
And the lines are overgrown

Pre-Chorus:
   FF
It's obvious now that I've been forgotten
  A minorAm        G+G
The hollow houses and vacant lots and
  FF
The shattered windows and splintered doors
  A minorAm             G+G
How long have I been here all a-lone?


Chorus:
FF
Here I am again the one who gets
    A minorAm            G+G
Left behind, left behind, left behind
    FF
Settled in, had a plan
   DmDm
But I never factored in
A minorAm            G+G
Everyone else saying goodbye


Bridge:
   FF
This ghost town is making a ghost of me
   A minorAm              G+G
This ghost town is making a ghost making a ghost of me

Interlude:

Verse 2:
C majorC      E minorEm   A minorAm      G+G       A minorAm *
 I promised myself I'd learn to be the one who leaves
C majorC      E minorEm       A minorAm
With no more roots to tie me down
      G+G         A minorAm *
It's just a different kind of lonely


Pre-Chorus:
    FF
So I'm back to pulling arms and begging and begging
A minorAm
For the love of God
        G+G
Don't leave me here again


Chorus:
FF
Here I am again the one who gets
    A minorAm            G+G
Left behind, left behind, left behind
    FF
Settled in, had a plan
   DmDm
But I never factored in
A minorAm            G+G
Everyone else saying goodbye


Bridge:
   FF
This ghost town is making a ghost of me
   A minorAm              G+G
This ghost town is making a ghost making a ghost of me
FF
They shake me off and ask why I bother
  A minorAm
The answer is simple:
  G+G
My father, his father-
 FF
I come from a long line of people who believe
    A minorAm
In the flowers that grow
    G+G
In the cracks in the street
    FF  A minorAm G+G
Here I am
    FF  A minorAm G+G
Here I am


Outro:
C majorC
