B5               G#m7                        F#sus4
  My city's still breathing, but barely it's true

       Esus2                         B5
Through buildings gone missing like teeth

                 G#m7                    F#sus4
The sidewalks are watching me think about you

Esus2
Sparkled with broken glass

G#m7   F#/A#     B5       E
   I'm back with scars to show

G#m7    F#/A#    B5        E
   Back with the streets I know

    C#m/F#
Will never take me anywhere but here
[Interlude] B5 G#m7 F#sus4 Esus2 x2 [Verse 2]
B5                 G#m7                     F#sus4
  The stain in the carpet, this drink in my hand

    Esus2                   B5
The strangers whose faces I know

                 G#m7                   F#sus4
We meet here for our dress rehearsal to say

   Esus2
"I wanted it this way"

G#m7    F#/A#   B5      E
   Wait for the year to drown

G#m7      F#/A#    B5        E
   Spring forward, fall back down

    C#m/F#                         B5/G#  B5/F#  B5/E
I'm trying not to wonder where you are
B5/G# B5/F# B5/E [Bridge]
B5/G#    B5/F#   B5/E
     All this time

B5/G#   B5/F# B5/E
     Lingers  undefined

B5/G#    B5/F#  B5/E
     Someone choose

      F#
Who's left and who's leaving
[Verse 3]
B5            G#m7                F#sus4
  Memory will rust and erode into lists

   Esus2                 B5
Of all that you gave me

                G#m7                     F#sus4
A blanket, some matches, this pain in my chest

    Esus2               G#m7
The best parts of lonely

     F#/A#    B5       E
Duct tape and soldered wires

G#m7 F#/A#     B5    E
New  words for old desires

    C#m/F#
And every birthday card I threw away
[Solo] B5 G#m7 F#sus4 Esus2 x4 [Verse 4]
G#m7 F#/A#    B5  E
    I wait in 4/4 time

G#m7      F#/A#  B5      E
    Count yellow highway lines

     C#m/F#                        B5  G#m7  F#sus4  Esus2
That you're relying on to lead you home
That you're relying on to lead you home That you're relying on to lead you home
