Introduction:
E F#m
Starlight is streaming down a dead-end street
C#m B A
Lead our way back to something good
E F#m
It's high time we turned around this lousy luck
C#m B A
You know tonight I think that we could
E
Raise my glass to starting over
F#m C#m
Knock on wood we're getting warmer now
B A
It's hard to read the street signs
E
In these dim lights and soft reflections
F#m
No dead ends just new directions
C#m B A
Say that I think we're on an incline
A
Don't you?
E
I lose myself sometimes
B
on these broken streets
C#m
But I still dream
A
I cough I breathe
E B
So beat me down I won't ever leave
E
And even though I bruise myself
B
somehow on the same concrete
C#m
And lose some skin this world
A E
we're in can do its worst
B
It'll never win
C#m B A
We float away like fireflies
C#m B
in city night Across the park
A
where the flowers end
A
and the nothing starts
E
Until we're half dead and
F#m
scheming here in your backyard
C#m B A
Find some truth in the wine we spill
E F#m
Fell short tonight but we'll keep coming back
C#m B A
We always have and we always will
E
I lose myself sometimes
B
on these broken streets
C#m
But I still dream
A
I cough I breathe
E B
So beat me down I won't ever leave
E
And even though I bruise myself
B
somehow on the same concrete
C#m
And lose some skin this world
A E
we're in can do its worst
B
It'll never win
E
But right now I don't care
C#m
Your smile is like a
G#m A
cure to my poison luck
E C#m
In pitch black we lay back
G#m A
And laugh until the sun comes up
A
And we hold fast
