[Eb] [Ab] [Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] This town [C] bleeds like an old boo [Cm]-boo.
You [C] found no [Eb] peace in a low-key room.
[Ab] Every bridge sings a [Cm] different tune.
You either kiss or cry [Bb] on [Eb] every avenue.
Where she steals an hour from [Fm] the darkest [Cm] night.
[Fm] Wraps it up in gold [Eb] and gives me sunlight.
[Cm] There's nothing but she was going down my spine.
I'd rather wait for an hour than [Bb] sleep for a [Eb] lifetime.
So I make my [Ab] way through the [Cm] rain-torn streets.
Past the [Bbm] drugs and their [Eb] pieces of me.
[Ab] Where the alcohol now [Cm] clouds their mind.
And them souls are wishing [Bb] for [Eb] closure.
[Cm] Where that coach she bought is bound [Bb] to keep me [Eb] warm.
[Cm] Bottles are hanging [Bbm] off her sleeves [Ab] at home.
And [Cm] the world outside [Bb] howls like a newborn.
[Eb] [Fm] [Cm]
[Fm] [Eb] [Ab] [Cm]
[Eb] At least tell me why I'm here before you tell me to stay.
[F]
Because the big [Eb] bang doesn't care if I'm afraid.
I could fill [Ebm] my time in a million [Cm] ways.
Put a little bit [Eb] of sunshine in my day.
Where there's still a swing on [Fm] the old oak [Cm] tree.
Where we used to play my [Ab] brother [Eb] and me.
Sometimes [F] I feel like going home.
[Cm] Home is [Eb] a child's memory.
[Cm] Yeah, I cried a tear [Abm] when I [C] heard the news.
There's really nothing that [Eb] I can say or do.
Hardest [Cm] lesson I ever learned.
Light a candle [Eb] just to watch it burn.
[Cm] So you get caught up [Bb] in a raging winter [Eb] storm.
[Cm] All the lights are off [Ab] and the curtains are drawn.
[D] You can live like a king [Bb] but you die like a newborn.
[Eb] [Ab] [Cm]
[Fm] [Eb] [Ab]
So this road will take us from place to place.
I'm gonna let this hair [Eb] grow from my face.
Where [Bb] I'm bound I cannot [Cm] tell.
If you believe the Bible then you're [Eb] bound for hell.
[Abm] But I got a loving eye, [Cm] she got me.
Knows a [Eb] place inside my dreams.
[Cm] If I sell this ring it'll make me sad.
But I'll buy me a brand [Eb] new sleeping bag.
There's a map [G] and a star [Ab] on a chest.
There's a universe [Bb] hidden behind the [Eb] rock.
When I meet you at [G] six after some [Cm] rest.
We'll [Ab] get paid.
We'll get [Bb] drunk.
We'll get by.
[Eb] [Cm] We'll [Bb] chase the sunset [Eb] until morning.
Yeah [C] we'll sleep through [Bb] eight thousand world [Ab] wars.
[Cm] And I will cry like a widow [Bb] and die like a [Eb] newborn.
[Ab] [C] [Bb]
[Eb] Thank you very much.
Cheers.
