[Intro]

Am Bm B C B

[Verse]

I watch and I wait

In this city you call home

The men had reported

This street leads to lost souls

[Refrain]

Took a picture with my eyes

And I'm frightened

Of girls in plastic heights

New Manhattan

Sold to you is paradise

Bm B

Two silhouettes drenched in red light

[Chorus]

Anywhere we may roam

Boulevards far from home

'Till our final scene

You've got the best of me

Standing in a golden frame

Looking out, but we won't change

'Till our final scene

C Em

You've got the best of, got the best of me

[Interlude]

Em C G C B

[Verse]

Your eyes have a silence

Despite the commotion

We reigned over the shadows

That wished we were broken

[Refrain]

Took a picture with my eyes

I'm your golden

Nothing could ever disguise

New Manhattan

Sold to me, but I'll deny

I'm safe from harm by your side

[Chorus]

Anywhere we may roam

Boulevards far from home

'Till our final scene

You've got the best of me

Standing in a golden frame

Looking out, but we won't change

'Till our final scene

Am C Em

You've got the best of, got the best of me
