[Intro] Gmaj7 Dsus2 x4 [Verse 1]
Gmaj7           Dsus2          Gmaj7 Dsus2
We were brought up in a boring town

Gmaj7         Dsus2             Gmaj7   Dsus2  
Watching our feet sink into the ground

Am7         Gmaj7           Bm7        Cmaj9
Never went up on a roof at night – oh no

Dm7            Cmaj9 
On top of the city

Em7             F6/9  
To look at the lights
[Interlude] Gmaj7 Dsus2 [Verse 2]
Gmaj7        Dsus2          Gmaj7 Dsus2
Remember the TV was on all day

Gmaj7         Dsus2            Gmaj7 Dsus2
With so much silence to chase away

Am7         Gmaj7             Bm7          Cmaj9 
Now we sit up on the roof at night – you know

Dm7            Cmaj9 
And listen to sirens

Em7                 D/E
And neighbours who fight
[Chorus]
              Am7         Em7 
And we're the A Team, the White Knights

    Fmaj7      Cmaj9 Fmaj7 Cmaj9
And we want it all

           Am7               Em7 
We got the big dream and the bright lights

       Fmaj7                   Cmaj9   Fmaj7             Cmaj9
But we don't see the stars anymore (We don't see the stars)

   Fmaj7                  Cmaj9    Fmaj7             Cmaj9   
We don't see the stars anymore (We don't see the stars)
[Interlude] Gmaj7 Dsus2 [Verse 3]
Gmaj7           Dsus2                 Gmaj7 Dsus2
We were brought up with the smell of grass

Gmaj7        Dsus2          Gmaj7 Dsus2
Knowing that nobody had no class

Am7         Gmaj7             Bm7            Cmaj9 
Sitting on top of a tower of steel – now I know

Dm7             Cmaj9
That nobody's perfect

Em7               D/E
And everything's real
[Chorus]
              Am7         Em7 
And we're the A Team, the White Knights

    Fmaj7      Cmaj9 Fmaj7 Cmaj9
And we want it all

           Am7               Em7 
We got the big dream and the bright lights

       Fmaj7                   Cmaj9   Fmaj7             Cmaj9
But we don't see the stars anymore (We don't see the stars)

   Fmaj7                  Cmaj9    Fmaj7             Cmaj9   
We don't see the stars anymore (We don't see the stars)
[Solo] Gmaj7 A Gmaj7 A Fmaj7 G Dm7 Dsus2 [Bridge]
Am7           Gmaj7             Bm7          Cmaj9 
Come with me up on the roof tonight – you know

Dm7                    Cmaj9 
We'll be kings of the city

Em7              F6/9
And look at the lights
[Chorus]
                 Am7         Em7 
'Cause we're the A Team, the White Knights

    Fmaj7      Cmaj9 Fmaj7 Cmaj9
And we want it all

           Am7               Em7 
We got the big dream and the bright lights

       Fmaj7                   Cmaj9   Fmaj7             Cmaj9
But we don't see the stars anymore (We don't see the stars)

   Fmaj7                  Cmaj9    Fmaj7             Cmaj9   
We don't see the stars anymore (We don't see the stars)
[Outro]
Fmaj7 Cmaj9    Fmaj7              Cmaj9  Fmaj7 Cmaj9  
           (We don't see the stars)                   

    Fmaj7              Cmaj9  Fmaj7 Cmaj9
(We don't see the stars)
