Intro: G


Verse 1:
G
Tonight I need the bright lights
Cadd9
still got her face on my mind.
G
Heading where the talk is cheap and I'm
Cadd9
dressed to a "t"
Em7           Dsus   Cadd9
so they won't notice me


Verse 2:
G
It's warm for October
Cadd9
and I've got the windows down.
G
The skyline whispers
Cadd9             Em7   Dsus   Cadd9
her promises, the same lie each night.


Pre-Chorus:
        Em7    Dsus    Cadd9
But I force myself to believe...


Chorus:
       G             Dsus         Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
       G        Dsus           Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.


Verse 3:
G
The city's a desert
Cadd9
with photographic stars.
G
Each pretty face is
Cadd9                  Em7            Dsus  Cadd9
just a mirage, and my mouth's full of sand again.


Pre-Chorus2:
       Em7     Dsus    Cadd9
But I force myself to believe,
            Em7       Dsus         Cadd9
across the river's the cure for what's sick inside of me.


Chorus:
       G             Dsus         Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
       G        Dsus           Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
       G             Dsus         Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
       G        Dsus           Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.


Bridge: Dsus Cadd9 Em7 G Dsus Cadd9 Em7 G

     Dsus     Cadd9             Em7
I look in the mirror past the buildings, 
                   G
the sky's getting light.
Dsus                 Cadd9             Em7
Another piece of my innocence is the admission 
                G
I paid there tonight.
 Em7                Dsus           Cadd9
Slow down past her exit though it makes me sick, and I 
Em7           Dsus
imagine her saying,
Em7     Dsus        Cadd9
"You're better than this
Em7     Dsus        Cadd9
you're better than this."


Chorus:
       G             Dsus         Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
       G        Dsus           Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
       G             Dsus         Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
       G        Dsus           Cadd9              Em7  Dsus
What I came to escape is right here inside of me. 
Cadd9
Whoa-Whoa
G                Em7    Dsus  Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different
