[E]
[G#m]
[F#m]
[B]
[E]
streets are filled with broken [A] grass you get buried by [Am] the past
give me just a [E] little taste lay this [B] mess to waste
[E] take me home my mind is racing take [A] me home
my body's aching so [Am] long i'll make you want to stay [E] with me
befriended by the [B] enemy for [E] a long time
every little thing about this tell me nothing [G#m]
out there is ever gonna [F#m] help me
all these words that i hear [B] spoken just promises [E] broken
[G] looking outside from a window sill
[C] rolling on the corner wishing i [G] could never find what [C] you're looking for
[A]
red feet, [D] white eyes, [A] dim light shines i'm [D] so far away
[B] no sad [E] smile, [B] it's all i see [E] when i stay
every little thing about this tells [G#m] me nothing out there is ever [G] gonna help [F#m] me
all these words that i hear [B] spoken just promises [E] broken
from the hotel [Em] [A] satellite don't look like you're living [Am] right
here's a deal you [E] can't refuse you ain't got as much [B] to lose
[E] can you tell your troubles to [G#m] someone who won't laugh at [F#m] you
someday
[B]
[E] yes i'll watch you walk [G#m] away
hope a part of you will [F#m] stay someday
[B]
[E] every little thing about this tells me [G#m] nothing out there is ever gonna [F#m] help me
all these words that i hear spoken [B]
just promises broken
[E]
