[Verse]
C#m                      E
The moon is hanging low over the central station

C#m                          E
I watch the buses leave in silence, bound for foreign distant places

C#m                     E
The Andes hold me close. A mothers only son

C#m                        F#m
I feel weightless in the valley, like I'm everywhere at once
[Chorus] (x2)
A
I'm laying low

E
A stray dog in the street

A          E
You took me home

G#m
We’re sister cities
[Verse] C#m C#m E E C#m C#m E B C#m
C#m            E            B
We came here abandoned An old brick faced apartment

C#m                       E
Rusted swing set in the courtyard like the one that I was born in

C#m                           E
I'm guarded like I'm wounded, my first instinct's always “run”

C#m
I wanna turn the scene, I wanna call it off, I want a light in the dark

G#m
I wanna swallow the sun!
[Chorus] (x2)
A
I'm laying low

E
A stray dog in the street

A          E
You took me home

G#m
We’re sister cities
[Bridge]
A  B        C#m
I was just mange and skin and bone

A        B   E
You took me into your home

B         D#m    E    B        A
Kept warm on a blanket from your worn out winter coat
[Instrumental] G#m D [Chorus] (x2)
A
I'm laying low

E
A stray dog in the street

A          E
You took me home

G#m
We’re sister cities
[Outro] C#m C#m E E C#m C#m E B C#m
