[Verse]
C#m E
The moon is hanging low over the central station
C#m E
I watch the buses leave in silence, bound for foreign distant places
C#m E
The Andes hold me close. A mothers only son
C#m F#m
I feel weightless in the valley, like I'm everywhere at once
[Chorus] (x2)
A
I'm laying low
E
A stray dog in the street
A E
You took me home
G#m
We’re sister cities
[Verse]
C#m C#m E E
C#m C#m E B C#m
C#m E B
We came here abandoned An old brick faced apartment
C#m E
Rusted swing set in the courtyard like the one that I was born in
C#m E
I'm guarded like I'm wounded, my first instinct's always “run”
C#m
I wanna turn the scene, I wanna call it off, I want a light in the dark
G#m
I wanna swallow the sun!
[Chorus] (x2)
A
I'm laying low
E
A stray dog in the street
A E
You took me home
G#m
We’re sister cities
[Bridge]
A B C#m
I was just mange and skin and bone
A B E
You took me into your home
B D#m E B A
Kept warm on a blanket from your worn out winter coat
[Instrumental]
G#m D
[Chorus] (x2)
A
I'm laying low
E
A stray dog in the street
A E
You took me home
G#m
We’re sister cities
[Outro]
