Chords with lyrics
You spread your rusty fingers across the ledge.
E MajorE
You get your grip and peer down over the edge.
You watch the city move and breathe and migrate.
C# minorC#m
You’re not apart of it. You’re broken now, like us.
BB E MajorE
I turn and brush the birds from off my shoulders.
G# minorG#m
And cross side-walks with an earful of white noise.
C# minorC#m BB
You sit up on your perch for the rest of the night.
E MajorE
You watch the moon and hope the damn thing crumbles.
You count the stars reflecting in the windows.
And then you realize just how minimal you are.
C# minorC#m BB E MajorE
I stop and watch the airplanes leave the city.
G# minorG#m
And I silently wish I was on one.
C# minorC#m BB
You sit down slow and watch yourself in the glass.
E MajorE
You reach inside and tear out all your cables.
Snakes of smoke are dripping from your fingers.
You have no body, just a cage to hold your parts.
C# minorC#m BB
I have no answers; I’m rambling.
E MajorE G# minorG#m
I was never one to solve whatever has gone wrong.
C# minorC#m BB
You lie down on the roof and watch the sun rise.
E MajorE
Its burning fingers rummage through your insides.
And for a moment you feel like you’re alive.
And then it’s gone, so you get up.
E MajorE BB
Up, up, baby. There’s blood on the sidewalks of this town.
C# minorC#m BB

They’ve got us on the ropes. But we don’t have to take it lying down anymore.
Our hands aren’t tied now.
E MajorE BB
Down, down, baby. Down in the in the center of this town.
C# minorC#m
They’ve got ‘em buried deep.
BB A augmentedA
Under layers of concrete are the bones of our past.
(Oh no, no)
C# minorC#m BB E MajorE A augmentedA
We’ll leave on the evening train.
C# minorC#m BB E MajorE A augmentedA
It won’t be long, but it feels that way.
C# minorC#m BB E MajorE A augmentedA
But home never meant very much to us any__way.
C# minorC#m BB A augmentedA
So we convince ourselves that we’re better off gone.
E MajorE
And maybe we’re right.
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m
And we collapse on a road.
BB A augmentedA BB E MajorE
On an old dirt road, where the sun doesn’t look like such a waste.
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m BB A augmentedA
And we fall asleep, under leaves of a couple of them nearby tress.
BB E MajorE
And we never wake again.
