N.C. Am G/B We were singing in the rain Am/C Dsus2 Like we invented singing Am G/B There's a light in the sky Am/C Dsus2 From a million street lights Am G/B And we danced all the steps Am/C Dsus2 From all those old time movies Am G/B Rolling down the hill Am/C Dsus2 With laughing hearts
[Chorus]
F Dm In Poison Street they guard the gates F Dm With bitter, bitter tongues F Dm In Poison Street we'll laugh out loud E Until the shadows go melt away
[Verse 2]
N.C. Am G/B And I love you now Am/C Dsus2 Like I love you always ever Am G/B Kissing in the dark Am/C Dsus2 Like a couple of kids Am G/B You gave me life Am/C Dsus2 You gave me light and thunder Am G/B Like a blind man sees Am/C Dsus2 For the very first time
[Chorus]
F Dm In Poison Street we'll go crashing through the walls F Dm That history made for us F Dm In Poison Street we'll spring the traps E And race away
[Bridge]
Eb Bb/D So just a kick Cm Gm For this dark damned city of ours Fm Bb And a kiss, Cm Yeah a kiss for you Eb Bb/D And just a drink Cm Gm A toast to the days to come Fm Bb Now Poison Street won't break us Cm Any more

[Verse 3]
N.C. Am G/B We were singing in the rain Am/C Dsus2 Like we wrote that song Am G/B There's a light in the sky Am/C Dsus2 From the streetlights all around Am G/B You gave me life Am/C Dsus2 You gave me light and thunder Am G/B Like a man makes fire Am/C Dsus2 For the very first time
[Chorus]
F Dm In Poison Street we'll go crashing through the walls F Dm That history made for us F Dm In Poison Street we'll laugh til the shadows E Go melt away
[Bridge]
Eb Bb/D So just a kick Cm Gm For this dark damned city of ours Fm Bb And a kiss, Cm Yeah a kiss for you Eb Bb/D And another drink Cm Gm A toast to the days to come Fm Bb Now that Poison Street won't break us Cm Any more Fm Bb Now that Poison Street can't touch us Cm Any more
