The great escape
G             C
might just be killing me

are turning the ghosts on me

So I sleep all day
G               C
in the heat of this devil town
C                  G              Gadd11 G
and dream that I'm climbing trees

after the sun goes down

I don't know how

A thrill's a thrill
G                C
but the gamblers run out of need

I lost all my good friends
G         D
in Eden's alley

verse 4

And when the lights come on
G                  C
these big wheels keep rolling

taking me to the star
G                D
on the wings of an old song

I don't know why

my dreams slipped out of sight
