[Intro]
F   Am   G   Em C F   Em C G
[Verse 1]
N.C.       C  
We saw the times
N.C.          G          C      F          C          F  G  
We   wrote the songs of café bars and midnight chimes
N.C.        F  C  
In   perfect rhymes
N.C.            G     C         F          C          F  G  
That danced with melodies in song, we sang the times

We paid our dues
N.C.         G          C            F         C        F  G  
We   took the road and played the game of win or lose
N.C.          F  C  
We   chose the muse
N.C.       G       C      F           C          F        G   C  G  
She  led us on in neon lights of midnight hues
[Chorus]
N.C.                F  Am  
And through it all
N.C.         G  
The rise and fall
N.C.                C          F  G  
The come and go, the lost and won
N.C.             F  Am  
We made our way
And took the Gday
We marched to Crhythms Fof our Gown
And Ctravelled Fon
[Instrumental]
F   Am   C   Em C F   Em C G
[Verse 3]
N.C.     C  
A single star
N.C.          G         C       F       C       F  G  
That seemed to hang on the horizon from afar
N.C.        F  C  
A    perfect star
A Gcity Cstreetlight Fin the Cnight, this Fwas our GstarC  G  
[Chorus]
N.C.                F  Am  
And through it all
N.C.         G  
The rise and fall
The come and Cgo, the Flost and Gwon
N.C.             F  Am  
We made our way
And took the Gday
We marched to Crhythms Fof our Gown
And Ctravelled Fon

F   Am   C   Em C F   Em C G
F   Am   C   Em C F   Em C G
[Verse 4]
N.C.         C  
For those we knew
N.C.        G       C          F          C        F  G  
The  ones we lost along the way, the chosen few
N.C.         F  C  
They left too soon
But Gwe're the Cones who'll Fcarry Con for Fthose we GknewC  G  
[Chorus]
N.C.                F  Am  
And through it all
N.C.         G  
The rise and fall
