[Verse 1]

         G               D
I never felt like I was home
             Em                    C
Felt like a strange long-distance caller
            G                    D                    Em       C
Set to the words I heard on the needle spinnin' by my bedside
               G                   D
And I used to stay up most of the night
        Em                C
With my ear tuned to any sign
    G                 D                          Em       C
Of life, of love, of something that felt like redemption

[Pre-Chorus]

    C                    D                Em     G
And I never dreamed that I would see you again
    C                       Bm
But I never forgot all the times that we spent
        Em                       D
flying rolled down low like the window

[Chorus]

     G          D         Em                 C
And maybe we believed in very, very foolish things
G                          D                   C
Maybe these songs kept us breathing another tomorrow
    G                    D
And we were always very sure we
      Em                     C
were never gonna change the world
   G              D                   Em       C
I never held any grudges or kept any pictures

[Verse 2]

                 G                  D
And what did it mean for all these years
         Em                  C
I spent chasin' them ferris wheels
          G                 D                Em       C
That were always gone like visions come the morning?
                 G           D
But there's not one day I regret
            Em          C
And I would do it all again
        G               D                Em       C
So if I go down, Lily, I'm going down believing

[Pre-Chorus]

    C                    D                Em     G
And I never dreamed that I would see you again
       C                 Bm
And I lost myself for a season in Hell flying
        Em                       D
flying rolled down low like the window

[Chorus]

     G          D         Em                 C
And maybe we believed in very, very foolish things
G                          D                   C
Maybe these songs kept us breathing another tomorrow
    G                    D
And we were always very sure we
      Em                     C
were never gonna change the world
   G              D                   Em       C
I never held any grudges or kept any pictures

[Bridge]

              Em        C
She said, "tonight, my love,
     G         D             Em           C          G    D
I declare this war for your falling from grace with me"
       Em       C           G              D
While Neptune rolled out a carpet made of gold
         Em          C              G   D
for the mermaids he drowned in the sea
             Em        C   G
It's been a long time
         D        Em       C   G
since I kept any pictures
     D           Em        C   G
And it's been a long night,
         D             Em      C   G   D
I don't know where to find her

[Chorus]

     G          D         Em                 C
And maybe we believed in very, very foolish things
G                          D                   C
Maybe these songs kept us breathing another tomorrow
    G                    D
And we were always very sure we
      Em                     C
were never gonna change the world
   G              D                   Em       C
I never held any grudges or kept any pictures

[Outro]

             Em        C   G
It's been a long time
         D        Em       C   G
since I kept any pictures
     D           Em        C   G
And it's been a long night,
         D             Em      C   G
I don't know where to find her
D            Em        C   G
It's been a long time
         D        Em       C   G
since I kept any pictures
     D           Em        C   G
And it's been a long night,
         D             Em      C   G    D    G
I don't know where to find her
