[C]- [G]- [Em]- [D] X2

 

[C]I was left [G]to my own [Em] [D]de--v-i-c-e-s

[C]Many days [G]fell away with [Em]nothing to [D]show

 

[C]And the walls kept tumbling [G]down

In the city that we [Em] [D]l-o-v-e-d

[C]Great clouds roll over the [G]hills

Bringing darkness from [Em] [D]A-B-o-v-E

 

But if you close your [C]eyes,

Does it [G]almost feel like

[Em]Nothing changed at [D]all?

And if you close your [C]eyes,

Does it [G]almost feel like

[Em]You've been here [D]before?

 

[C]How am I gonna be an [Em]optimist [D]about this?

[C]How am I gonna be an [Em]optimist [D]about this?

 

[C]We were caught [G]up and lost in [Em]all of our [D]vices

[C]In your pose [G]as the dust [Em]settles around [D]us

 

[C]And the walls kept tumbling [G]down

In the city that we [Em] [D]l-o-v-e-d

[C]Great clouds roll over the [G]hills

Bringing darkness from [Em] [D]A-B-o-v-E

 

But if you close your [C]eyes,

Does it [G]almost feel like

[Em]Nothing changed at [D]all?

And if you close your [C]eyes,

Does it [G]almost feel like

[Em]You've been here [D]before?

[C]Oh where do we [G]begin?

[Em]The rubble or our [D]sins?
