C F C F Dm F C C [Verse] C F This city has plagiarized your thoughts C Dm F C This city has ruined all that there was left in me Dm F C Cigarette stained teeth chatter in the winter's air Dm F And broken people quench the cycle C Of these broken habits these broken habits Dm And I'm looking through the window F C To a life I could have led Dm F Where I would be sober and normal C If I just walked through the door Through that door [Chorus] G But darlin' I can't lie to you F C That the sun feels so good out here G Yeah darlin' I can't lie to you F C That the sun feels so good out here [Verse] C F I'm not growing up I'm slowly dying C Pokin' holes in the pixels Dm F C Of this decaying portrait Dm F C This life we lead is a bittersweet distraction Dm F As the grown child screams C For more and more attention Dm F And the muffled ears of the spectators C Render indifferent Dm F Wrinkled brow shy to anything C But solitude and silence [Chorus] G But I'm begging you darlin' F C Don't lull your thoughts into compliance G Yeah I'm begging you darlin' F C C E7 Don't lull your thoughts into compliance [Instrumental] Am F C C E7 Am F C C [Bridge] G Even after the match is burnt out F C The fire that it lit still rages on G Even after the match is burnt out F C The fire that it lit still rages on G Even after the match is burnt out F C The fire that it lit still rages on G Even after the match is burnt out F C The fire that it lit still rages on E7 Am G F And on and on and on and on F C So darlin' bottles up and carry on [Outro] F C F Dm F C C
