Dsus2 Aadd9 Dsus2 Aadd9 F#m
[Verse]
Dsus2 Aadd9
We speak out like children of the dreams that we chase and pursue
Dsus2 Aadd9 F#m
These rights we hold precious say it loud enough and it'll be true
E
In the company of strangers
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
Wild conversation and the hours go by so fast
Bm C#m Dsus2 E
And you find a lot of wisdom there at the bottom of the glass
[Chorus]
A Bm C#m Dsus2
But when the lights go down and the laughter fades away
A Bm E
Somewhere beneath the moon and stars
A Bm C#m Dsus2
All of life certainties they, they all just slip away
Bm F#m E Dsus2 A
And you lie down in God's shadow, at the end, the end of the day
[Verse]
Dsus2 Aadd9
We speak revolution but the future's already been sold
Dsus2 Aadd9 F#m
The masters of diffusion spinning their fine webs into gold
E
And the party's just begun
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
This matter of resistance, our ship was built to last
Bm C#m Dsus2 E
We're sailing out on troubled seas, nail your colors to the mast
[Chorus]
A Bm C#m Dsus2
But when the lights go down and the laughter fades away
A Bm E
Somewhere beneath the moon and stars
A Bm C#m Dsus2
All of life certainties they, they all just slip away
Bm F#m E
And you lie down in God's shadow, at the end, the end of the day
[Bridge]
G F#m
The avenue is so crowded and they're turning up the heat
Bm C#m Dsus2
And the red lights keep on flashing out there tonight
E Dsus2 Aadd9 Dsus2 Aadd9 F#m
On Bourbon Street yeah on Bourbon Street
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
Wild conversation and the hours go by so fast
Bm C#m Dsus2 E
And you find a lot of wisdom there at the bottom of the glass
E
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus]
A Bm C#m Dsus2
But when the lights go down and the laughter fades away
A Bm E
Somewhere beneath the moon and stars
A Bm C#m Dsus2
All of life certainties they, they all just slip away
Bm F#m E A
And you lie down in God's shadow, at the end, the end of the day
Bm C#m Dsus2 A Bm C#m
The end of the day, the end of the day, the end of the day
Dsus2 A Bm C#m
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, lay down your soul with me
Dsus2 A Bm C#m
Lay down your soul tonight, lay down your soul with me
Dsus2 A
And everything will be alright, it'll be alright
