[E] [A]
[D] [A]
What a thing to [D] be a witness [E] to the sunshine
What a dream to [D] just be walking [E] on the ground
[F#m] What a time to [C#m] live among the [D] ashen remnants [A] of a love that came before
I'm [E] still looking for that now
[A] It took centuries [D] to build these [A] twisted city
Seconds [D] to reduce them [A] down to dust
[F#m] All the tour [C#m] guide could say was [D] take your pictures [A] folks.
It's late
Try your best please [E] to remember [A] what you've done
[Bm] Don't look so [D] forlorn
Don't you look so [A] scared
[D]
Don't get so upset this world was [A] never there
But [E] there are hundreds of ways
[D] To get through the day
[E] Hundreds of ways [D] so you [Bm] just find [A] one
I used to think [D] that time was of the essence
[A] Now I just [D] wish I could fall [A] asleep
All [F#m] the strange parade [C#m] of sounds the [D] city makes when I [A] lie down
Little explosions [E] that set fire in [A] my dreams
Sometimes I get [D] mistaken [A] for this actor
So maybe I [D] could see it [A] from side
[F#m] No one [C#m] really seems to be [D] the person that [A] they mean to be
I hope I'm [E] forgotten when [A] I die
[D] Don't contradict me.
Don't make me cross [A] the line
[D] If you feel threatened
It's only cause [A] I'm mine
And there [E] are hundreds of ways
[D] To get through the day
[E] Hundreds of ways to get through the day
Hundreds of ways [D] so you just [Bm] find [A] one
[E] All my heroes [D] are all
So [E] running in circles you [D] stop watch some chaos
[E] Love was the message
[D] post up
[F#m] We ran [C#m] along [D] You know
We [F#m] ran along
[D] You [Bm] know
[A]
I stole all the [D] rhinestones out of [A] Carolina
[E] Sold them [D] out in Baker's [A] feel for cash
[F#m] Then the band shell [C#m] got its band sound [D] like an arm in [A] Japan blew all my quarters
[E] Trying to get that feeling back
Suck the can [D] turn boredom [A] into Ireland
Sociopath [D] riding on the birth
[F#m] These irises [C#m] are black from [D] those novelty [A] contacts.
He looks around
You [E] can't see the rest of us
[D] My sunglasses, I don't mind
[A] [F#m]
[D] It's getting dark, [D] bro, but I always loved
[A] [F#m] In
