Introducción:
C G
Across the city steam and light
C G
Off a runway to the manufactured night
C Am
In storybooks you?ll never find
Bm Em
In paper armor that you?d mind
C Am
They?ll hold the match to you this time
G
And watch the smoke rings fit the crime
C G
In moments you cannot reprise
C G
Like a soldier or a watch that you can?t wind
C Am
We fought the world with hands twice-tied
Bm Em
The people cheered, the captain cried
C Am
I?ll keep the souvenir inside
G
It?s just better in my mind
Em Bm
And I wouldn?t lie
G
I never really wanted more
Em
Than what I ever really needed after all
G
Someone that hates to see me go
C G
You made a promise then you hide
C G
And you said we?d all be dead by twenty-five
C Am
It?s not your disappointed sigh
Bm Em
It?s not you traded this for pride
C Am
Not that we really even mind
G
We?re just bored, you?re still alive
Em Bm
And I wouldn?t lie
G C
If I tried, take me down
Am D G
And if I... die here now
G D
Wishing wells and magic spells and everything between
Em
Can you tell me what it?s like?
C D C D G
Or how it?s going to be?
