[Intro] E5 [Verse 1]
E5
I saw the glimmer of a silhouette
The part of me that died had just come back
C5
Empty visions in a parking lot

                      D5
I spent my whole life lying, I just got caught

E5
Cold and dark by the riverside
I search for answers at night I’ve got nowhere to hide
C5                                              D
I’ve got bruises beneath these ripped up jeans, I’m tired of this old life
[Chorus]
C5                                   C5
Where were you when I needed you the most?

            D5             E5
When it got dark and I got cold

                                C5
You were never there when I got home

                 D5               E5
The streetlights sing just like a curse

                             C5
You only seem to make things worse

         D5              E5
Now it’s getting hard to breathe

C5               D5           E5
The streetlights sing me fast asleep
[Verse 2]
E5
I spent my summers catching fireflies
The part that flickered bright had just now died
C5
My innocence stopped making sense

D5
I’ve got no place left to hide
[Chorus]
C5                                   C5
Where were you when I needed you the most?

            D5             E5
When it got dark and I got cold

                                C5
You were never there when I got home

                 D5               E5
The streetlights sing just like a curse

                             C5
You only seem to make things worse

         D5              E5
Now it’s getting hard to breathe

C5               D5           E5
The streetlights sing me fast asleep
[Bridge]
E5                            A5
The streetlights sing but the flashlights won’t bring you home

          C5              D5
Bring you home

E5                            A5
The streetlights sing but the flashlights won’t bring you home

          C5              D5
Bring you home
[Outro Chorus]
E5 (ring out)
Where were you when I needed you the most?

C5          D5             E5
When it got dark and I got cold

                                C5
You were never there when I got home

                 D5               E5
The streetlights sing just like a curse

                             C5
You only seem to make things worse

         D5              E5
Now it’s getting hard to breathe

C5               D5           E5
The streetlights sing me fast asleep

C5       D5              E5
Now it’s getting hard to breathe

C5               D5           E5
The streetlights sing me fast asleep

                              C5 (ring out)
The streetlights sing me fast asleep
