VERSE:
  Am                             G
I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
                       Dm          F
Scrolling through the paragraphs
                     Am           G
Clicking through the photographs
  Am                         G
I wish I could make sense of what we do
                 Dm        F
Burning down the capitals
                  Am        G
The wisest of the animals

PRECHORUS:
F
Who are you?
             G        F

Tooth for tooth
            G      F
Maybe we'll go one more

     C        C/B
This life 
                   G
is lived in perfect symmetry
       Dm       F
What I do
             Am          G
That will be done to me

VERSE:
     Am                 G
Read page after page of an*lysis
                Dm          F
Looking for the final score
                        Am            G
We're no closer than we were before

PRE-CHORUS:
F
Who are you?
             G        F
What are you fighting for?

Holy truth

Brother I choose this mortal....

As the needle 
               G
slips into the run-out groove
Dm    F
Love
              Am         G

BRIDGE:
                 F             C
And maybe you'll find life is unkind
         G
And over so soon
            F
There is no golden gate
        C                G
There's no heaven waiting for you

                   F 
Oh boy, you oughta leave this town
G
Get out while you can
             C                    Am
The meter's running down
                   Fm
The voices in the streets you love
 G                            C
Everything is better when you hear that shout
 Am       Dm
Woah!
 C      Am
Woah!
  G
Woah!

Rush hour buses

Worn-out phrases
Mile after mile of just
