[B] [C]
[G]
[Em] [C]
[G] I'm a caller [Em] reporter from a [C] city on a phone [G] line
But the city's been [Em] bled white by the [C] city of the love of [G] the heart
And we've talked to the lord [Em] of our dreams
He came to this dress [C] you just don't waste no [G] time
I've dreamed so night [Em] to take away [C] this curse
[Em] But it makes [C] me feel [D] much worse, [Am] bled white
[C] [F]
[G] So I wait for the love [Em] train, by the city [C] on a yellow [G] line
And you met through a friend [Em] of mine, by the city [C] of the love of the
[G] heart
To a yesterday [Em] dream, a yesterday dream [C] is just a waste of [G] time
Cause I'll have to be high [Em] to drag to the sunset [C] down
[Em] And make [C] this [D] failing town, [Am] bled white
[C] [G]
[A] So here it goes with a blank expression, [Am] specially for me cause he knows I [C] feel the same
Just [G]
[A] happy you said come in quick succession, [Am] I'm never going to [C] become [D] what [G] you became
Don't [G]
[Em] [C]
[G] you dare disturb
[Em] me, oh god [C] it would be so fun
[G] While I'm balancing [Em] my power, I'll [C] have you in my place all night
[G] Cause you can't ever hurt [Em] me, fatal rule you made is [C] just a waste of time
[G] Like it already [Em] has, I may not seem [C] quite right
[Em] But I'm [C] not a fuck, [D] not a [Am] qualifier
[C] Bled
[Am] white
