End Of A Life chords by Mori Calliope

• Capo on 3rd

🎸 Chorus:
     Cmaj7     D             Gmaj7
We'd run right through those nights
                               Em7
I'll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
          Cmaj7
There was madness in the meaning
      D                                              Gmaj7
Never laughless, we were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness



                Em7
This city never died

     Cmaj7   D
I'll fly, no proof
      Gmaj7                                      Em7
Those heights, I'll never find another chance to say "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
      Cmaj7
I was hopeless, it was stinging
        D                                           Gmaj7
Running roadless, we were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
                Em7
This city never died

🎸 Verse 1:
Cmaj7
   What was the root of it all? I couldn't say
D
   Used to jump and then fall, rugged and clichéd
Gmaj7
   Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
          Em7
No use in trying to find friends, 'cause in the end nobody sticks around
Cmaj7
   It's when you shoved yourself into a crowded place that you
D
Turned around and found yourself in love in outer space
        Gmaj7
Cue the reckless nights, no strings, laughing at our own dreams
Em7
   Just what the hell was so funny?
            Cmaj7
Bark up the wrong tree, stumble, used to falling great heights
         D
Amidst a concrete jungle, singing 'cause it felt right
             Gmaj7
We mixed the ennui and troubles, rhyming our discontent
                Em7
And though it's history, I can't forget the time that we spent
               Cmaj7
Convinced that this could mean another end exists between real and pretend
  D
A twisted alter-fiction where I missed my chance, did not ascend, and
Gmaj7                                                 Em7
Disappearing into the mist of "never happened" is the me that I can never befriend
            Cmaj7
I let it go


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
              D
Fade in, fade out
           Gmaj7
This crazy dream
            Em7                      Cmaj7
Without a direction, floating aimlessly
                D
There's nothing left
               Gmaj7
Back there for me
                   Em7
Breathe in, but it won't stop the rain from pouring


🎸 Chorus:
     Cmaj7     D             Gmaj7
We'd run right through those nights
                               Em7
I'll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
          Cmaj7
There was madness in the meaning
      D                                              Gmaj7
Never laughless, we were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
                Em7
This city never died
                                  Cmaj7
But was there ever a soul inside?


🎸 Verse 2:
                                           D
Chasing fireflies between the soaring high-rises
                                                    Gmaj7
Left a trail behind, defined it "wasted time of our lives"
Gmaj7
Silent singer, overworked and underpaid
          Em7
Thinks an office is a coffin until off is where you're laid
      Cmaj7
Yet a thought persists, an optimist who ought to be afraid
         D
Saw the "nothing wrong" in writing songs behind the lonely shade
       Gmaj7
Is the world a sadder place without the words that you conveyed?
         Em7
When the ladder fell and shattered every bar that we had played?
        Cmaj7
Does it matter in the end the sound diminished and decayed
         D
And your friends grew tired of fantasy; you're wishing they had stayed?
          Gmaj7
You don't get to say "I miss you," you watched your heroes fade
         Em7
Into the rear-view mirror of the villain you portrayed
         Cmaj7
Stop the pity party, listen, you don't get to be dismayed
          D
You don't get to be emotional, feel blessed you got it made
          Gmaj7
These the best of years of life because you chose to make a trade
     Em7
Recollect the days you hoped and you prayed for this
                 Cmaj7
What is there to miss?


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
              D
Fade in, fade out
          Gmaj7
This hazy dream
            Em7                     Cmaj7
Without a direction, roaming aimlessly
                D
There's nothing left
               Gmaj7
Back there for me
                 Em7
Pretend it's the end of a made-up story


🎸 Chorus:
     Cmaj7   D
I'll fly, no proof
      Gmaj7                                      Em7
Those heights, I'll never find another chance to say "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
      Cmaj7
I was hopeless, it was stinging
        D                                           Gmaj7
Driving roadless, we were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
                Em7
This city never died
                                     Cmaj7
I'll say goodbye to the soul inside


🎸 Bridge:
         Cmaj7
(And yet somehow, there was romance
       D
In our self-hate, "we've got no chance"
        Gmaj7
In this light maze, but let's hold hands
            Em7
Through the night haze, we'll run so fast
         Cmaj7
'Til the school chime, 'til the train runs
        D
We know it's time, we're the sane ones
       Gmaj7
Waking up now, to the "real life"
       Em7
Let me daydream, 'til the next night)
          Cmaj7    D
I'll keep waiting
                      Gmaj7  Em7
I'll keep waiting for you

🎸 Interlude:
Cmaj7 D Gmaj7 Em7
Cmaj7 D Gmaj7 Em7

🎸 Outro:
       Cmaj7
Waking up now, to my real life
       D
Let me daydream, 'til the next flight
         Gmaj7
Drowning so long, I got older
        Em7
Now the crowd's gone, is it over?
      N.C.
Is it over?
