C                             Em                   F               C
We stumbled and stared at the carnival lights that lit up New York City,

       F          C                 G              Am
From a rooftop in Brooklyn that was covered in bad graffiti.

C                Em                 F                       C
And then I let a thousand splinters pierce right through my spoiled liver,

F      C                     G
Or whatever that was left of it.
LEAD PART: C Em F C F C G x2 VERSE:
C                            Em          F               C
'Cause I've cursed my lonely memory with picture-perfect imagery.

F             C              G                  Am
Maybe I'm not dying I'm just living in decaying cities,

C                      Em              F                  C
But I'm still healthy, I'm still fine, I've been spending all my time

F    C             G
  reading the obituaries.
INTERLUDE: C G x3 CHORUS:

But I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.

BRIDGE:
F       C       G             Am
'Cause I am the shadow of the waxwing slain

F     C    G                Am
I felt the false azure from windowpanes

F   C     G                  Am           F
I am just freaking out, yeah I'll be fine.
CHORUS:
