Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

ERoll down your wAsus2indow

EYour crying's got everything Asus2steamed.

ERoll down your winAsus2dow

F♯madd11It's not as desperate as you make it Bseem

EYou're so young to havAsus2e seen it

EAnd now your vision is much too old and much tooAsus2 clear

EYou know I'm friends with that darkness you've beAsus2en seeing

F♯madd11We dated once or twice in earlieBr years

EAnd I know that you’reAsus2 trying

EAnd believe me I know that itAsus2's tough

EBut I've seen you when you're dancing with theAsus2 children

F♯mSkip ahead to the lighter Bstuff

Chorus

 And toEnight when they A♭mcome I'll say tC♯mhey can't see you Ano more

 Cause they'Ell draw out your liA♭mfe through C♯ma fine silver Astraw

 And if I was Ea hero I would haA♭mve fought thC♯mem off at yAour doB-o-or

Solo over [: E / Asus 2:] (x2)

Verse

 And youE’re thinking of your fAsus2amily

 And you’re Ethinking it's been muAsus2ch too long

 Because you need someE innocence and theirAsus2 order

 But that medF♯madd11icine is much too stBrong

 And we're holdEing so tight and we'rAsus2e falling

 And the fEunny thing is both areAsus2 just the same

 You know fEreedom will find its own aAsus2musement

 And it looks F♯mlike we've found a waiBting game

 So you torturEe yourself for that moment Asus2

 When the only E5thing left is to feel A

 You know romantiE5cs may run free in the darkness A

 But come the light, F♯mthey're the first to kneel B

Chorus

 And toEnight when they A♭mcome I'll say tC♯mhey can't see you Ano more

 Cause they'Ell draw out your liA♭mfe through C♯ma fine silver Astraw

 And if I was Ea hero I would haA♭mve fought thC♯mem off at yAour doB-o-or

  E A♭m #m A

But the lines we have drawn and the sides we have chosen

 And my own inEdecision A♭mhow badly that C♯mshows A

 And, God Edamn, if I was a hA♭mero I would have kept ourA little woF♯mrld clo-o-Bosed.

End with [: E / A :]
