[Verse 1]
SEtarlight is streaming down a F#mdead-end street
Lead our C#mway back to Bsomething Agood
It's Ehigh time we turned around this F#mlousy luck
You know toC#mnight I think Bthat we Acould
[Verse 2]
ERaise my glass to starting over
F#mKnock on wood we're getting warmer C#mnow
It's Bhard to read the sAtreet signs
In Ethese dim lights and soft reflections
F#mNo dead ends just new directions
C#mSay that I Bthink we're on an Aincline
ADon't you?
[Chorus 1]
I Elose myself sometimes
on these broken sBtreets
But I still C#mdream
I cough I Abreathe
So beat me Edown I won't ever Bleave
And even though I Ebruise myself
somehow on the same conBcrete
And lose some sC#mkin this world
we're Ain can do its Eworst
It'll never Bwin
We C#mfloat aBway like Afireflies
in city night AC#mcross the Bpark
where the Aflowers end
and the Anothing starts
[Verse 3]
Until we're Ehalf dead and
scheming here in F#myour backyard
Find some C#mtruth in the Bwine we sApill
EFell short tonight but we'll keep F#mcoming back
We always C#mhave and we Balways Awill
[Chorus 2]
I Elose myself sometimes
on these broken sBtreets
But I still C#mdream
I cough I Abreathe
So beat me Edown I won't ever Bleave
And even though I Ebruise myself
somehow on the same conBcrete
And lose some sC#mkin this world
we're Ain can do its Eworst
It'll never Bwin
[Bridge]
But right now I Edon't care
Your sC#mmile is like a
G#mcure to my poison Aluck
In Epitch black we C#mlay back
And G#mlaugh until the sun comes Aup
And Awe hold fast
[Outro]

[Verse 1]

E F#m

Starlight is streaming down a dead-end street

C#m B A

Lead our way back to something good

E F#m

It's high time we turned around this lousy luck

C#m B A

You know tonight I think that we could

[Verse 2]

Raise my glass to starting over

F#m C#m

Knock on wood we're getting warmer now

B A

It's hard to read the street signs

In these dim lights and soft reflections

F#m

No dead ends just new directions

C#m B A

Say that I think we're on an incline

Don't you?

[Chorus 1]

I lose myself sometimes

on these broken streets

C#m

But I still dream

I cough I breathe

E B

So beat me down I won't ever leave

And even though I bruise myself

somehow on the same concrete

C#m

And lose some skin this world

A E

we're in can do its worst

It'll never win

C#m B A

We float away like fireflies

C#m B

in city night Across the park

where the flowers end

and the nothing starts

[Verse 3]

Until we're half dead and

F#m

scheming here in your backyard

C#m B A

Find some truth in the wine we spill

E F#m

Fell short tonight but we'll keep coming back

C#m B A

We always have and we always will

[Chorus 2]

I lose myself sometimes

on these broken streets

C#m

But I still dream

I cough I breathe

E B

So beat me down I won't ever leave

And even though I bruise myself

somehow on the same concrete

C#m

And lose some skin this world

A E

we're in can do its worst

It'll never win

[Bridge]

But right now I don't care

C#m

Your smile is like a

G#m A

cure to my poison luck

E C#m

In pitch black we lay back

G#m A

And laugh until the sun comes up

And we hold fast

[Outro]

E C#m E C#m E
