NOTE:   During the sections where Em and A are held it sounds good to shuffle to
        Em7 and A7 respectively for the 3rd and 4th beats (though this is not necessary).

               Em                 Ax3
[Chorus]
   A    F    G     DI just don’t Ftrust the Emsun to Crise
When I can’t see your AmeyesEm  F  
You’re my reason for FbreGathAing
[Verse 1]
              EmThe napkin inks the words aAway
My numb dismay is deafening I forget to Emblink
And I used to love a bar full of flickering stars far from Ahome
But I’m pressing down an anger in my Embones
Though if he came within swinging distance sonny Jim I would Astill go for the hold
And it’s Acold in Chicago
[Chorus]

When I can’t see your AmeyesEm  F  
You’re my reason for FbreGathAing
[Verse 3]
        EmOh,   Archipelago go Agone
We pushed the boat out far too far this Emtime
Something we dared never dream on TV every Aday
Eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eyeEm  
Can I register today I refuse to be afraid, there’s a Agirl a world away
Who sees Alove in other people
[Outro]
   A    F    G     DI just don’t Ftrust the Emsun to Crise
When I can’t see your AmeyesEm  F  
You’re my reason for FbreGathAing
  F    G     DI just don’t Ftrust the Emworld to Cspin
If I can’t pull you AminEm  F  
You’re my reason for FbreGathAing
[Instrumental]

Em A

The napkin inks the words away

My numb dismay is deafening I forget to blink

And I used to love a bar full of flickering stars far from home

But I’m pressing down an anger in my bones

Though if he came within swinging distance sonny Jim I would still go for the hold

And it’s cold in Chicago

Oh, Archipelago go gone

We pushed the boat out far too far this time

Something we dared never dream on TV every day

Eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye

Can I register today I refuse to be afraid, there’s a girl a world away

Who sees love in other people
