[Verse 1]
D5
It's dusk as all the shadows fall

D5                  Gsus2
The sun is laid to rest

Gsus2              D5   
At night the city comes to life

       A7sus4           Gadd9
As the light dies in the west
[Verse 2]
D5
Here we stand as some local band

D5                      Gsus2
Sets circles 'round the clock

Gsus2                       D5 
Smoke so thick you need a lighthouse

    A7sus4               Gadd9
So loud I can't hear myself talk

[Verse 3]
D5
Someone whispered in my ear

D5                      Gsus2
"It's not like it was before"

Gsus2                       D5
I don't know what happened here

 A7sus4               Gadd9
I guess we just got bored
[Verse 4]
D5
The good old days

D5   Gsus2    D5  D5                           A7sus4 
Well I   suppose, I'm glad they're behind us now

Bm                          Gadd9
The only thing worse than growing up

D5            A7sus4      D5 
Is never quite learning how
[Verse 5]
D5
Late at night 

D5   Gsus2       D5     D5                A7sus4 
we   toss and we turn  lay awake 'til dawn

Bm                       Gadd9
We close our eyes as the sun comes up 

D5       A7sus4      D5 
we're gone
