Intro
F# F#/C# F#/B
[Verse 1]
F# F#/C#
Just give me a second
F#/B F#
Before I pack up my boxes and shut you out of my life
F#/C#
Just give me a minute
F#/B F#
So I can drink up the feeling we had just one last time
F#/C# F#/B
Your shadow stained the carpet
F#
So I got hardwood floors
F#/C# F#/B
The noise punched through the window -
F#
I don't sleep anymore
F#/C#
Mmm
F#/B
We moved to the rhythm of the traffic on the street
F#
The street, mmm
F#/C#
Mmm
F#/B
I try to dance now but I can't feel no beat
N.F# F# F#/C#
No be-eeat
[Refrain]
F#/B F# F#/C#
(Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey)
F#/B
(Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey)
[Verse 2]
F# F#/C#
And under the sidewalks, (mm)
F#/B F#
I ride the subway 'cause I look for you in every face
F#/C# F#/B
Don't wanna find you, though
'Cause 8 million strangers lose their distance once you take their place
D#m C# B
Mmm
N.F#. F# C/C#
8 million bodies and they're yours and now I'm out of space
[Refrain]
F#/B F# F#/C#
(Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey)
F#/B
(Ah-ey-ey-ey, ah-ey-ey-ey)
[Bridge]
D#m C# B
There's nothing left for me
G#m B
In this city anymore, mm
But
F# F#/C# F#/B
Maybe I'll finally get some sleep at night
F# F#/C# F#/B
Maybe I'll finally get some sleep at night...
[Outro]
F#
And without
F#/C#
Your light to blind
F#/B
I can see the stars at night
F#
Windows open
F#/C#
Shut my eyes
F#/B
Sync my resting heartbeat to the night...
F#
Without
F#/C#
Your light to blind
F#/B
I can see the stars at night
F#
Windows open
F#/C#
Shut my eyes
F#/B
Sync my resting heartbeat to the quiet night
F# F#/C#
...When the silence gets too loud
F#/B
I'll feel you calling me home
F# F#/C#
When the silence gets too loud
F#/B
I'll feel you calling me home
