[Verse]

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Street lamps out on the road

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Leaves rustling in the air, as they sing on my way home

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Another light lost in the sky

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

The stars may fall, but every wish turns into another lie

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Distant echoes in empty space

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

The sound of voices I have heard but could not ever place

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Crimson morning calls my name

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

The sun brings on a new day, but I still feel all the same

[Verse]

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

The sun burns bright like a fire

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

As I stare into the flame, anchored by a strange desire

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Lovers fighting in the streets

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

The pastor preaches to himself, like a drummer who's lost his beat

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

These are the stories I recall

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

A million pages and I know you won't get through them all

G G6add4 G13 G6add4

Now I'm standing near the end

G G6add4 G13 G6add4 G G6add4 G13 G6add4

If the sky is falling, then I know you and I won't have to pretend
