Verse 1

C
You step through me

Am                             G
And the screen door hits the wood

G
And your packing all your things

C                   Am                    G
You say your moving out to there to Hollywood

G
And I can't do a thing

Pre-Chorus 1

C
You say there's nothing for you

G
In this cardboard town

C
And every bridge you cross

G
Your gonna burn it to the ground

C                      G                   Em
You wont listen to a word that I'm telling ya

Chorus

C
So who's running through the halls

G
In the houses of pain

C
That are staring back at me

G
Like the ocean from a plane

C
I swear I've seen your eyes

G                     Em
in the ghost of Philadelphia

Verse 2 I think about you late at night sometimes When I can't sleep Cause I can hear the train It's always there You just don't know it Till a quarter to three You just can't hear it in the day Pre-Chorus 2 When every body's got your number In a plexy glass town Where the birds ain't got wings But no one makes a sound Cause they all know how to fly Just I wouldn't buy what they're selling ya Chorus So who's running through the halls In the houses of pain That are staring back at me Like the ocean from a plane I swear I've seen your eyes in the ghost of Philadelphia Verse 3 I run into your old man every once and again Mostly in the spring Reminds me of our younger and more genuine days when You weren't so out of reach Pre-Chorus 3 Still for all your running You just can't change a mile Of the things you carry around In the closet of your mind And the days keep coming man They never fail ya Bridge

C
Your never gonna run away

C
From what your hanging round your head

Em
Your never gonna run away

Em
From what your hanging round your head

C
Your never gonna run away

C
From what your hanging round your head

Em
And I'm never gonna run away

Em
From what you said
