[Verse 1]
Gm Eb Prison bars inside our homes Bb F gone way too far this time Gm Eb it's skin on skin for skin tonight Bb F and I stand in plain sight - I watch it drown Gm Eb Where the fires burn right beside, Bb F Gm Eb they'll burn it to the ground - and we'll never know Bb F C F we'll never know - oh
[Verse 2]
Gm Eb Paper plates and dinner trays Bb F stacked away, stomach groans Gm Eb to see you see the sight of me Bb F would surely break my bones - I wash it down Gm Eb And the fires burned bright outside Bb F Gm Eb my house it's not a home - and we'll never know Bb F F we'll never know - oh
[Chorus]
Gm Eb Bb F Under these spotlights down on the streets I roam Gm Eb Bb F I'm looking for prophets born from these broken homes Gm Eb Bb F and under this sunshine revealed your brilliant cast Gm Eb Bb F if you never burn bright, if you never take flight you're always looking back

[Verse 3]
Gm Eb Oh - swept away from holidays Bb F had to learn to play pretend Gm Eb a list to list a list of things Bb F I wish that I could send - I toss it out Gm Eb The "once upon a time" for you Bb F Gm Eb never reached this blighted home - and you'll never know Bb F F and you'll never know - oh - oh you'll never know
[Chorus]
Gm Eb Bb F Under these spotlights down on the streets I roam Gm Eb B F I'm looking for prophets born from these broken homes Gm Eb Bb F and under this sunshine revealed your brilliant cast Gm Eb B F if you never burn bright, if you never take flight you're always looking back
[Bridge]
Ab Eb Bb Momma said goodnight, tried her best to keep you warm Ab the cold outside it broke her down, Eb Bb the fire gone, papa left so long ago Ab and it's been so long, and it's been so long Eb Bb wonder who you have to blame Ab Eb Bb sitting under this spotlight you find yourself ready for the change
[Verse 4]
Gm Eb Prison bars inside our home Bb F went way too far that night Gm Eb was skin on skin for skin my son, Bb F and you stood in plain sight
[Chorus]
Gm Eb Bb F Looking for the spotlights down on the streets I roam Gm Eb Bb F I'm looking for prophets born from these broken homes Gm Eb Bb F and under this sunshine revealed your brilliant cast C Eb Bb if you never burn bright, if you never take flight you're always looking back. Ab always looking back
