[N]
Watching cigarettes burn out, till all the neon gets [Em] turned out.
So [G] high up in the [Am] theater, it's high up, [C] the best a [D]
cigarette can [G] burn out.
So [C] watching rivers run, down the [Bm] side of the mountain,
[Am] it's almost like it's crying my [G]
tears.
And the [Am] world on a [Em] string, and [Bm] I lost everything,
[Am] that's how I wound up [D] here.
Watching cigarettes [G] burn out, till all the neon gets [Em] turned out.
There's nothing left but empty [Am] glasses now, it's on [C] flashes now.
[D] The smoke and memory that ain't [Em]
nothing but [D] ashes and the [G] low lights,
they've done me wrong, don't treat me [Em] so right.
So high up in the [Am] theater, it's high up, [Em] the best a [G] cigarette can burn out.
If you put your hands in the flame, you got no right to complain,
cause [A] you're always gonna leave a [G]
mark.
But when the [C] glow comes to an end, like scattered embers [G] in the wind,
leaves you [Am] looking for a brand new spark.
[D] Watching [G] cigarettes burn out,
[Em]
[Am]
[G] and I won't ever rehearse, I'm gonna [Bm] quit.
But who am I [Am] kidding, I just can't put you [G] down, cause I keep hanging [A] around.
[G] Watching cigarettes burn out, till all the neon gets [Em] turned out.

[D] The smoke and memory that ain't [G] nothing but [D] ashes and [G] the low lights,
they've done me wrong, don't treat me [Em] so right.
So high up in the [Am] theater, it's high up, [C] the best [D] a cigarette [G] can burn out.
[Em] So high up in the [Am] theater, it's high up, [Em] the best a [A] cigarette can [G] burn out.
