Verse 1:
D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm
Welcome back, insomnia
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm
Ushered back into silence only when everyone else is sleeping
D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm
And 'cause the city?is?sleeping

As though I haven't risen like a phoenix from a thousand deaths

As though I have not been reborn to notice that my mission is not dead yet
(Bm9Bm9 G+G D MajorD A augmentedA)
Verse 2:
D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm
I'm exhausted, Midas
D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD
Reigniting a hunger that typically fuels those of us
E minorEm B minorBm
Still searching for something outside ourselves
D MajorD E minorEm B minorBm
'Cause this city bears violence

And everybody is rushing to sob at the podium
E minorEm B minorBm
And thank for ones who loved and exploited well

Bridge:
B minorBm E minorEm C# minorC#m F#F#
The light at the end of the tunnel
B minorBm E minorEm A augmentedA F# minorF#m B minorBm E minorEm C# minorC#m
The one I have always prayed for is a train
F#F# B minorBm E minorEm F#F#
At a hundred miles per hour
B minorBm
And it promises to break my bones if I don't stand still
Bm9Bm9 G+G D MajorD

With my relevance in dust

And I can't keep it up
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Though the fire is not out yet
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
I am losing the plot
