don't miss winter nights or when [A] we go by neon lights.
It's [G] there when you say that we're through and [D] through.
[A] And [D] we fear the leaves and lights and [A] you can see it in our eyes.
[G] Once we say things just couldn't [D] get [Am] better.
From [D] days when it was tight or when [A] we worked all day and nights.
[G] A glimmer of hope, the light that you didn't [D] know.

For [D] a chance against the world, our [A] pride will be at risk.
[G] And to know no one does it [D] [A] better.
