Quarter Past Midnight

       G                                           C
It's a quarter past midnight as we cut through the city (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    G                                               C
The streets are getting restless, good times, bad decisions (yeah, yeah)
       G                                        C
It's a quarter past midnight and the sirens are mending some hearts
              G                                                C
But we're the losers on the back seats singing "Love Will Tear Us Apart"

                    G                          C
It's a quarter past midnight, still avoiding tomorrow
                    G                                C
It's a quarter past midnight, but we're just getting going


[Chorus 1]
   C                 G
We keep on running, running through a red light
D                             Em
Like we're trying to burn the night away
 C                  G
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh
 D                  Em
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh

C                   G
This is my favorite part, oh
D                    Em
Help me piece it all together darling
C                G
Before it falls apart, oh
D                    N.C.
Help me piece it all together


[Verse 2]
       G                                          C
It's a quarter past midnight and the speakers are blowing (yeah, yeah)
            G                                            C
We want the bodies on the billboards, not the lives underneath them (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Continues after the ad
              G                                      C
And now we're crawling up the walls again and it's a quarter past twelve
        G                                                C
And you said we'd leave this place in dust and fall from heaven straight through hell
                          G                          C
We never know what we have, we never knew what we had


[Chorus 2]
   C                 G
We keep on running, running through a red light
D                             Em
Like we're trying to burn the night away
 C                  G
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh
 D                  Em
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh

 C            G
Why we always chasing after something
D                           Em
Like we trying to throw our lives away
 C                  G
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh
 D                  Em
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh

C                   G
This is my favorite part, oh
D                    Em
Help me piece it all together darling
C                G
Before it falls apart, oh
D                    N.C.
Help me piece it all together


[Bridge]
G                 C
I can't remember, I can't remember
G                 C
I can't remember, I can't remember


[Verse 3]
       G                                    C
It's a quarter past midnight and the secrets are flowing
    G                                          C
Our lips are getting looser, I don't know what I'm saying
                         G
We never knew what we had, never know what I've had


[Chorus 3]
   C                 G
We keep on running, running through a red light
D                             Em
Like we're trying to burn the night away
 C                  G
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh
 D                  Em
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh

 C            G
Why we always chasing after something
D                           Em
Like we trying to throw our lives away
 C                  G
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh
 D                  Em
Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh

C                   G
This is my favorite parts, oh
D                    Em
Help me piece it all together darling
C                G
Before it falls apart, oh
D                    N.C.
Help me piece it all together
