[Verse]
G      Bm         Em          Bm
Nobody ever had a dream round here

    G              Em             Bm          Em
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me

G      Bm             Em          Bm
Nobody ever pulls the seams round here

    G              Em             Bm          Em
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me

D             Em       Am       G
I've got this energy beneath my feet

     C              D              Bm          C
Like something underground's gonna come up and carry me

D             Em          Am         G
I've got this sentimental heart that beats

    C              D              Bm          C
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
[Chorus]
D       B                 Em
Now, "Why do you waste my time?"

       Bm            C        D       G   G/F#
Is the answer to the question on your mind

        Em             B         C         D            B
And I'm sick of all my judges so scared of what they'll find

      Em              Bm                 C        D        G
But I know that I can make it as long as somebody takes me home

      G#m     Am     Am  B
Every now and then...
[Post Chorus]
             G             Bm    Em      G  Em Bm
Oh, have you ever seen the lights?

         G             Bm    Em      G Em Bm
Have you ever seen the lights?
[Verse]
G        Bm           Em        Bm
I took a shuttle on a shockwave ride

      G             Em            Bm         Em
Where people on the pen pull the trigger for accolade

G        Bm            Em      Bm
I took a bullet and I looked inside

G                  Em         Bm     Em
Running through my veins an American masquerade

D       Em               Am      G
I still remember Grandma Dixie's wake

    C             D       Bm       C
I'd never really known anybody to die before

D               Em          Am       G
Red, white, and blue upon a birthday cake

   C              D           Bm        C
My brother he was born on the Fourth of July and that's
[Chorus]
D       B                    Em
All, so "Why do you waste my time?"

       Bm            C        D       G   G/F#
Is the answer to the question on your mind

        Em             Bm         C         D            B
And I'm sick of all my judges so scared of letting me shine

      Em              Bm                  C        D        G  G/F#  Em
But I know that I can make it, as long as somebody takes me home..

G#m           Am   Bm                C    D Dsus4
Every now and then,    Every now and then

         G Bm  Em Bm    C Am  G     D
You know I see London,  I see Sam's Town

G     Bm Em   Bm  C    Am G    D
Holds my hand and lets my hair down

G     Bm   Em    Bm    C   Am G    D
Rolls that world right off my shoulder

G Bm  Em Bm    C Am G      D    E
I see London,  I see Sam's Town now
