First Verse:
Play all of that five times, singing comes in on the second.
Lyrics- Dark streets carry me home now
I've stayed to long
We're brave men to sip the stars dry
And leave sleep alone
Built this house out of a fate driven dream \_ 2x
And these walls aren't what they seemed /
Second Verse:
Play it four times.
Lyrics- Hurt stays when the work is over
We've stayed too long
I'll save what memory lends me
When these days are gone
Built this house out of a fate driven dream \_ 2x
And these walls aren't what they seemed /

And I can't follow you down

Play this four times, singing, yelling really.

They throw in bass and drums on this part, too, it's the
unexpected loud, angsty ending. It's really hard to hear
the acoustic guitar through everything, so those chords are
my best guess, play around with it and listen to the song.
Lyrics- Dark streets carry me home now
I've stayed too long
We're brave men to sip the stars dry
And leave sleep alone
Hurt stays when the work is over
We've stayed too long
We're brave men to sip the stars dry
And leave ourselves alone
