[Verse 1]
     C               F   C
The city's growing greater
                F   C
Oh, heavenly dictator
          Am
But the space between our sinew
        G
Is a twisted wired labyrinth
       F                                C   F   C
Where you can't recall what happened to you

[Verse 2]

      C           F   C
Yet still I am reminded
               F C
Of waking undivided
    Am
Between words we'll never need know
G
Wondering in silence
  F                            C   F  C
Sheltered from the violence below

[Bridge]

     Am        C        Am   F   Am
Dadadam, daaadam, dadadamda dadadadam
     Am       C        Am   F   Am
Dadadam, daaadam, dadadamda dadadadam

[Verse 3]

C                F    C
Maybe we should move now
                          F     C
To the mountains or some beach town
      Am
And live off whatever our car's worth
       G
We'll either be alone then
        F                          C    F   C
Or be followed to the ends of the earth


[Verse 4]

     C          F    C
And if we are alone then
                F   C
Could we remain hidden
 Am
Would we even belong
         G
We were born inside this city
        F                     C    F   C
In its sorrowful and piteous song


[Bridge]

     Am        C        Am   F   Am
Dadadam, daaadam, dadadamda dadadadam
     Am       C        Am   F   Am
Dadadam, daaadam, dadadamda dadadadam


[Verse 5]

         C             F   C
But we feel it in our sinew
                        F    C
And we know now what we must do
        Am
'Cause when the dark, it calls us by name

       G
We'll know we were alive once
        F                    C   F   C
And at least for a moment untamed
       G
We'll know we were alive once
        F                    C   F   C
And at least for a moment untamed
       G
We'll know we were alive once
        F                    C   F   C
And at least for a moment untamed


[Outro]

     Am        C        Am   F   Am
Dadadam, daaadam, dadadamda dadadadam
     Am       C        Am   F   Am
Dadadam, daaadam, dadadamda dadadadam
