G          Dsus4  Em7               C(add9)
  Most of us,      have learned to trust

         Em7              Dsus4
What we see with our own eyes

         A7(sus4)  G/B   C(add9)  Dsus4
But with blinders on you hardly   realize

G              Dsus4  Em7          C(add9)
   That out of view,  it's still true

      Em7            Dsus4
Even when no one's around

         A7(sus4)   G/B     C(add9)   D(sus4)
We can stumble    and fall down
[Chorus]
G          D(sus4)     C(add9)   C(add9)
Sunshine burns your skin

G                       D(sus4)            Em7             C(add9)
Sometimes the things we love so much just eat us up from the outside in

G        D(sus4)      C(add9)
Oceans blue will drown

G                          D
I could find a way to live with your ghost but I

 A7sus4   G/B       C(add9)        D(sus4)
won't be happy till I leave this town
[Interlude] G Dsus4 C(add9) C(add9) [Verse 2]
G               D       Em7      C(add9)
It's just as well, it's hard to tell

          Em7                  D(sus4)
'Cause my hindsight's crystal clear

        A7(sus4)  G/B         C(add9)  D(sus4)     G
But the view from then's not like the view from here

           D(sus4)  Em7                  C(add9)
If you are passed    through a looking glass

      Em7              D
The important parts appear

        A7sus4   G/B       C(add9)   D(sus4)
But the details start to smear
[Chorus]
G          D(sus4)    C(add9)   C(add9)
Sunshine burns your skin
G D(sus)4 Em7 C(add9) Sometimes the things we love so much just eat us up from the outside in
G        D         C(add9)   C(add9)
Oceans blue will drown

G                          D(sus4)
I could find a way to live with your ghost but I

 A7sus4     G/B       C(add9)        Em7
won't be happy till I leave this town
[Bridge]
D                  Am       G                 A
When I leave this town, and move the point of view I found

D               Am        G                   A            D     Am    G    D   D
Sun seems to go down, but it just burns while we all spin around
[Verse 3]
G         D(sus4) Em7            C(add9)
  I ran fast,        but I came last

         Em7              D(sus4)
'Cause although I set the pace

        A7sus4           G/B          C(add9)        D(sus4)
It was rigged from the start that I'd lose this race

G           D(sus4)      Em7        C(add9)
  Gone and done    before it had begun

            Em7                      D(sus4)
Seems your cup's half full ’til its overflowed

          A7sus4  G/B         C(add9)       D(sus4)
Then you run and run til your heart explodes
[Chorus]
G          D(sus4)    C(add9)   C(add9)
Sunshine burns your skin

G                       D(sus4)             Emin7             C(add9)
Sometimes the things we love so much just eat us up from the outside in

G        D(sus4)    C(add9)
Oceans blue will drown

G                           D(sus4)
I could find a way to live with your ghost but I

 A7sus4   G/B          C(add9)        D(sus4)
won't be happy till I leave this town

G      D(sus4)

  Em7        G           C(add9)
I won't be happy ’til I leave this town

G      D(sus4)

 A7sus4    G/B         C(add9)    D(sus4)    G
won't be happy ’til I leave this town
