D#                        Fm   Cm
This town bleeds like an open wound
Cm                        A#    D#
You found no peace in a rented room
D#                        Fm      
And every brick sings a different 
 Cm
tune
Cm                         A#
Either kissed or cried on every 
    D#
avenue
D#                                
Well as she steals an hour from 
    Fm    Cm
the darkest night
Cm                        A#     
Wraps it up in gold and gives me 
      D#
some light
D#                             
‘til there's nothing but shivers 
         Fm     Cm
going down my spine
Cm                            A# 
Rather wake for an hour than 
             D#
sleep for a lifetime
D#                                
Well I make my way through the 
   Fm   Cm
rain torn street
Cm                          A#   
Past the drunks and their pieces 
    D#
of meat
D#                       Fm   Cm
The alcohol now clouds their minds
Cm                     A#      D#
Souls are wishing for closing time

Cm                         A#    
And the coat she bought is bound 
            D#
to keep me warm
Cm                   A#          
Buttons are hanging off, sleeves 
     G#
are torn
Cm                A#       
The wind outside howls like a 
        D#
newborn

Please tell me why I’m here

before you tell me to stay
Cm                        A#    D#
The big bang doesn’t care if I pray

Well I could fill my time in a

million ways
Cm                            A# 
Put a little bit of sunshine in 
   D#
my day
D#                            Fm 
There’s still a swing on the old 
     Cm
oak tree
Cm                          A#   
Where we used to play, my brother

 and me
D#                         Fm    Cm
And sometimes I feel like going home

But home is a childhood memory
D#                          Fm   
Well I cried a tear when I heard 
    Cm
the news
Cm                           A#   
Really nothing that I could say or
 D#
 do
D#                        Fm
It’s the hardest lesson I ever 
      Cm
learned
Cm                        A#    D#
Light a candle just to watch it burn

Cm                         A#    
So you get caught up in a raging 
         D#
winter storm
         Cm                   
All the lights are off and the 
   A#           G#
curtains are drawn
         Cm                      
You can live like a king but you 
A#               D#
die like a newborn

There’s a map of the stars on her

cry like a newborn
