Intro:

Ab Eb Ab Eb x2




Verse 1:
               Ab
She paints in grey
        Bb
And she closes her eyes
        Ab                     Eb
'Til fireworks and palm trees almost look alike
Ab                       Bb
She looks up to me and whispers
                       Cm  Bb
"I won't be here in a year"
               Ab
So I take the long road
    Bb
To think and wonder why
    Ab                       Eb
I can't sleep with all this sunlight
 Ab                           Bb
If there's still evidence of us
Cm                  Bb
Why can't that be enough?

Refrain:
                  Eb
I don't mean to drag you down
     Bb                  Ab
You taste just like you always do


Chorus:
Ab        Bb                Fm
Isabelle hides, so I can't find my way
Eb        Ab    Gm          Fm
I'd give anything just to surround your dreams
          Cm Ab Bb Ab
Oh-oh-oh


Verse 2:
    Ab
The envy of the dead
Bb
The sound of scissors and sleep
Ab
I can't believe you dreamed
           Eb
And pulled all of your clothes off
Ab
You're not supposed to drink
     Bb
With what's inside your purse
         Fm                F
And not expect me not to call, call you out
 Ab               Bb
I'm guiding your chin to my lips
 Ab            Eb Gm
Using only my fingertips


Refrain:
Cm
All we have are parking lots and nowhere to go
        Fm            F
If you love me, then show me more


Chorus:
Ab       Bb                Fm
Isabelle watches me from far away
Eb        Ab   Gm          Fm
I'd give anything just to surround your dreams
                  Cm
I know you like when
                 Bb          Ab
The temperature rises to a boiling heat
     Eb           Fm
The chlorine and wine found

He sees through her nightgown
                  Ab
And everything fades away

Bridge:
          Cm
The stars awake
                               Fm
But we can't see them out, so why pretend?
            Cm
Is there a train
                              Fm
That travels back to yours at 5 AM

Or are we walking?
Cm
Car alarms and leaves that blow
        Fm
They're calling out our names
                   Cm
But it's gone too far
                        Fm
Your butane mouth will spit me into flames

Breakdown:
 Cm
Sorry 'bout it
I can't help it
         Ab           G
I'm an anarchist in love
                  Cm
And I forgot to call you

I can't break you down while I
Ab                         G
Think about honey and the sweet New York sounds


Chorus:
Ab         Bb                Fm
Isabelle hides, so I can't find my way
Eb        Ab  Gm           Fm
I'd give anything to carry on, and on and on the same way
Ab               Bb            Fm
The temperature rises to this boiling heat
Eb                Ab
The chlorine and wine found
                      Cm
He sees through her nightgown
             Fm       F
As Saturday burns away

Outro:
Ab
Back in the days, when I was young
                 Cm
I’m not a kid anymore
                        Gm         Bb
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
Ab
Back in the days when I was young
               Cm
I'm not a kid anymore
                        Gm         Bb
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
