[Dm]
Two hearts that [Gm] shouldn't talk to each other become [Bb] close in a town much [Gb] like a prison cell.
[Dm] People speak [Gm] our names on the street in hushed [Bb] tones.
All the stories they tell, [Gb] if [C] anyone would listen.
[Bb] [Eb]
You [Cm] [Dm]
come from a town [E] where people don't bother [D] saying [Dbm] hello unless somebody's [C] born or dies.
[Dm] I come from a place [E] where they drag your hopes through [A] the mud cause [Db] their old dreams [Gb] are all dying.
[Eb] And when we walk down [F] the street, the winds sing the [Gm] name [Eb] you'll never find.
The sounds of the [F] night should make us [Eb] anxious, but it's much too [F] late when [D] the fear's [G] gone.
I will [Eb] meet you in the [F] next life, I [Ab] [D] promise [G] you, [Eb] when we meet [F] again.
[Eb] I promise [Dm] [Gm]
I [Eb] will wait till then [F] in heaven.
[Eb] [D] [G]
I [Eb] promise, I [F] promise.
[Dm] There's so many [Gm] fighting to get past the pearly [Dbm] gates, but [A] nobody [G] ever [D] wants to [Am] die or get sick.
[Dm]
Their intentions aren't [Gm] that good and I can smell the [Dbm] asphalt.
That's their [Db] personal [D] road to hell, he and he.
[Eb] And when we walk down [F] the street, the winds sing the name [Eb] you'll never find.
And it's much too late [F]
when the [D] fear is [G] gone.
I [Eb] will meet you in [F] the next life, I [Eb] promise [D] [G] you, [Eb] when we meet [F] again.
[Eb] I [Dm] promise [G] I will [Eb] wait till then [F] in heaven.
[Ab] I [D] [G] promise,
[Eb] I [F] promise.
[Gb] [D]
[Gb] [D] Ooooooh.
