[Verse 1]
D
I want to run
D
I want to hide
D
I want to tear down the walls
G
That hold me inside
Bm
I want to reach out
A
And touch the flame
C
Where the streets have no name
D
I, I, I, I want to feel
D
sunlight on my face
D
I see the dust cloud disappear
G
without a trace
Bm
I want to take shelter
A
from the poison rain
C
Where the streets have no name, oh ah
[Chorus]
D
Where the streets have no name
D
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building
G G
Then burning down love, burning down love
Bm
And when I go there
A
I go there with you...
D
It’s all I can do
[Verse 2]
D
The city’s a flood
D
And our love turns to rust
D
We’re beaten and blown by the wind
G
Trampled in dust
Bm
I’ll show you a place
A
High on a desert plain
C
Where the streets have no name, oh ah
[Chorus]
D
Where the streets have no name
D
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building
G G
Then burning down love, burning down love
Bm
And when I go there
A
I go there with you...
D
It’s all I can do
D
Our love turns to rust
G G
We’re beaten and blown by the wind, blown by the wind
D D
Oh, and I see love, see our love turn to rust
G G
Ah, we’re beaten and blown by the wind, blown by the wind
Bm
Oh, when I go there
A
I go there with you...
D
It’s all I can do
