I'm gonna sing a song.
[Ab] [A]
[Ab] [E]
[Dbm] [Gbm]
[Ab] [E]
[D] [Gbm] Meaning [Ab] is sometimes hard [E] to spot.
[E] [Gbm] Begins with the [Ab] flippering [E] of cigarettes.
[Gbm]
Darkness of [Ab] a dorm room.
[E] Somewhere in this [Gbm] suffocated
[Ab] [E] Midwest.
[Gbm] But if this is real, [Ab] then I was [E] mistaken.
[Gbm] And if there is truth, [Ab] then why can't we [E] find it?
[D] [Gbm] But beauty comes [Ab] to those who have [E] been waiting.
[D] [Gbm] Something that [Ab] is bigger than [E] themselves.
But this is the sound of the hopeless kids
As they scream from the basements of the houses of their parents.
[Dbm] And this is the sound of [B] the hopeless ones
As [E] they stare down at their books and realize that they've been lied to.
[Gbm] But if this is real, [Ab] then I was [E] mistaken.
[D] If visions dark, [Ab] then I was [E] not aware.
[D]
A city [Ab] like that which I [E] have craved
Is [D] that people change [Ab] so [E] unexpectedly.
[Gbm]
Realization [Ab] finds you in [E] a drunken airport.
[D] Some planes depart and [Ab] others never arrive.
[E]
[Gb] So with this in mind, [Ab] I don't plan [E] on waiting.
[Gb] It's time to leave [Ab] and break these [E] old ties.
[Gb] Without something more, [Ab] the vision [E] is fading.
[Gb] But until [D] it's gone, [Ab] the pain will make [E] us try.
It'll make us try.
But this is [Dbm] the hope I've been [B] searching for
[B] As the [E] wings catch the sunlight of the cold Nebraska skyline.
And [E] this is the dream I am dying [B] in.
As I wait to find tomorrow, be content without perfection.
[Gb] But if this is real, [Ab] then I was [E] mistaken.
[D] If visions dark, [Ab] then I was [E] not aware.
