Verse1:
E
 One night to be forgotten
D#m                    G#m     F#
  She got a mouth like Johnny Rotten

  This city seems so strange but here we go again

B             G#m
  So kill the lights
       C#m                  D#m
If the night belongs to the young
             F#      B
(don't wanna see the sun)
             G#m
Just killing time
        C#m           D#m
Finding ways to come alive

If only for tonight

Verse 2:
E
 Poor me, cast as the underdog
D#m                        G#m     F#       E
 I know I'm English but I'm bored of the dialogue
                            D#m                    G#m  F#
Let's go, let's twist the plot or lose it just the same

Chorus:
B             G#m
  So kill the lights
       C#m                  D#m
If the night belongs to the young
             F#      B
(don't wanna see the sun)
             G#m
Just killing time
        C#m          D#m
Finding ways to come alive
   Em          G#m
If only for tonight

Bridge:
              C#m         F#
But if you're in, I'm all in
     D#m                 G#m
Neon lights make my head swim
           C#m             F#         B    F#
And in the morning I'll forget what I done
A#              B
 Matchbook souvenirs
         F#                D#m                A#
From the underground, been lost and found and still
            B
I will disappear
       F#             D#m
With a royal flush at Lucky Cuss
     E
Just killing time
          G#m
To try and feel alive
   F#          B
If only for tonight ...

Chorus:
             G#m
So kill the lights
       C#m                  D#m
If the night belongs to the young
             F#      B
(don't wanna see the sun)
             G#m
Just killing time
        C#m          D#m
Finding ways to come alive
        F#      B
(if only for tonight)
           G#m
We spit at stars and
      C#m                 D#m
These bars are sticky and cruel
            F#     B
(but who you tryna fool?)
           G#m        C#m
I guess we all need a way
                   D#m
To get through the day
     E
Just killing time
          G#m
To try and feel alive
   F#          Em
If only for tonight ...
