G Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
Intro: G
Verse 1:
G
Tonight I need the bright lights
Cadd9
still got her face on my mind.
G
Heading where the talk is cheap and I'm
Cadd9
dressed to a "t"
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
so they won't notice me
Verse 2:
G
It's warm for October
Cadd9
and I've got the windows down.
G
The skyline whispers
Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
her promises, the same lie each night.
Pre-Chorus:
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
But I force myself to believe...
Chorus:
G Dsus4 Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
G Dsus4 Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
Verse 3:
G
The city's a desert
Cadd9
with photographic stars.
G
Each pretty face is
Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
just a mirage, and my mouth's full of sand again.
Pre-Chorus2:
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
But I force myself to believe,
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
across the river's the cure for what's sick inside of me.
Chorus:
G Dsus4 Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
G Dsus4 Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
G Dsus4 Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
G Dsus4 Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
Bridge: Dsus4 Cadd9 Em7 G Dsus4 Cadd9 Em7 G
Dsus4 Cadd9 Em7
I look in the mirror past the buildings,
G
the sky's getting light.
Dsus4 Cadd9 Em7
Another piece of my innocence is the admission
G
I paid there tonight.
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
Slow down past her exit though it makes me sick, and I
Em7 Dsus4
imagine her saying,
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
"You're better than this
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
you're better than this."
Chorus:
G Dsus4 Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
G Dsus4 Cadd9
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
G Dsus4 Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
G Dsus4 Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
Cadd9
Whoa-Whoa
G Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
And I swore it'd be different

Tonight I need the bright lights, still got her face on my mind.
Heading where the talk is cheap and I'm dressed to a "t" so they won't notice me.
It's warm for October and I've got the windows down.
The skyline whispers her promises, the same lie each night.
But I force myself to believe...
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came to escape is right here inside of me.
The city's a desert with photographic stars.
Each pretty face is just a mirage, and my mouth's full of sand again.
But I force myself to believe, across the river's acure for what's sick inside of me.
I look in the mirror past the buildings, the sky's getting light.
Another piece of my innocence is the admission I paid there tonight.
Slow down past her exit though it makes me sick, and I imagine her saying,
"You're better than this... you're better than this."
And I swore it'd be different but how could it be?
What I came here to escape is right here inside of me.
