D#m F# B
Smoke and cinder, steel in an ashtray
D#m F# B
In a dingy bar where romances are born
D#m F# B
The sound of Denver seeping from the jukebox
F# C# B F#
But no country road could ever take us home
D#m F# B
She speaks like raging tides against the coastline
D#m F# B
I'm rendered ragged by things that she might know
D#m F# B
The whiskey and this feeling bring me back to better times
F# C# B
Let it go let it go let it go
F# F#/F D#m C# B
Wait you remind me of someone I used to love
F# F#/F
Wait she revived me
D#m C# B
But that was so long ago
F# C# D#m B
And now the passing days on the outside feel great
F# C# B
And it never ever rains
F# C# D#m B
The city is burning right now I'm dying
F# C# B
It's hard to wash your hands clean
C#
Of these dying days

D#m F# B
Sweaty palmed I swallow down my cocktail
D#m F# B
Like the things I feel but know I shouldn't say
D#m F# B
Every morning I awake to my reassurance
F# C# B
It's okay it's okay it's okay
F# F#/F D#m C# B
Wait you remind me of someone I used to love

Wait she revived me

F# C# D#m B
Well there I go digging graves for every single pretty girl
F# C# B
Pretty soon they'll be no more left to move
F# C# D#m B
And I'll be filling holes with a longing in my soul
G# C#
If it's one of those things I tend to lose
F# C# D#m B
And now the passing days on the outside feel great
F# C# B
And it never ever rains
F# C# D#m B
The city is burning right now I'm dying
F# C# B
