[G] [C]
The streets of my town are not what they [F] were
They are [C] hallowed and nethered and bitter and hurting
And it's not so you'd notice, but it's as [F] sinister as they
Like the wheels [C] of ambition that's christening
So I went out walking the streets of the dead
[F] Without a tip [C] on my shoulder, boys [G] in my head
It's [C] all you've been brought here, and you don't [F] know what for
Now the [C] mystery train is coming [F] right through your [C] door
And if you hear [G] you calling, you don't have to fall [Am] so low
[C] To see [G] you falling, you don't have to walk [F] so far
You can run [C] all day, and we can take you where
You can look bright like an angel
There were high school nights at Devils Inn, and we'd play at [F] Stunts again
We were raising [C] each other in a [G] strange [Am] commandment
There were hard pills to swallow, and we drank them [F] all down
Oh, they're not [C] too short, but now they're a little too long
And [Am] if you hear you [C] calling, you don't have to [Em] fall so [G] low
To see you falling, you don't have to walk [F] so far
[Dm] You can run [C] all day, and we can take you where
You can shout out in anger, you can listen in fool
[D] You can cry like an angel
[G]
[Dm] [Am]
[F] [G]
[Dm] [C] [F]
[G] So [C] look homeward, baby, keep your eyes on the sky
They will never forget you, so don't hesitate
[G] This is your party, [C] and I know it's not your [F] right field
But may we all find [C] salvation, because you hear [G] you calling
[C] You [Bb] don't have to fall so low to [Am] see you [C] falling
You [G] don't have to walk [F] so far
You can [C] run all day, and we can take [F] you where
[C] You can shout out in anger, you can listen in fool
You can call out to heaven, [F] we'll be listening [G] to you
You can sing [C] heavenly, you can fly like
[C] You can cry like an angel, and there are no words
