FAll the girls Cdressed like candy
Looking oh so full in love Gwith all the world
FAnd the boys Cwith their messed up hair
And secrets that they keep Gbehind their eyes
GMy face was always pressed F#magainst Cthe glass
GYou were the only one F#mwho eCver asked
F"Why don't you Gcome inside?"
GWe watched the Fhotel lights Gand I was mesCmerized
FVoices float Cthrough the walls
And from the streets of New York GCity down below
FSome are surprised to Cfind the world is just as small and sad
GThe higher that they climb
GWell I guess we're just the F#msentimental Ckind
GPlay that AlejAmandro one F#mmore time
GWe hope for Cbrighter days
GJust one more war away and another step behind
FYou once told me that when the night Amis frozen wGait for the golden sun
FIf that's the one thing you believe in Amwell, Cthen, I guess we're even, love
It's cGomin' up
CWhat once were Gdreams Care now just souvenirs
F#mOf the people that we used to Gbe
GLike these CChelsea nights
FI had so many things to tell you love
GBut you were Amdrunk with wine
You know I've loved you from the F#mvery start
GAnd if you sChould ever break F#mmy foolish heart
GDon't waste your sad regrets
CDon't break your tenderness
The Fhotel lights Cwere Gours
GNo matter what comes Amnext
The hFotel lights Cwere oGurs
