INTRO
F Am F C
F Am Dm C
F                C
We make so many promises
F               C
But we keep hardly any
F                      C
The least that we can say for ourselves
F               C
is that we can laugh, and we can cry
            Am          C
and we can steal what we need
Am              C
we're just as scared
Am          F    G             C
as anyone else struggling for sense
(instrumental interlude, you can repeat intro and it sounds good.)
F                  C
We spent so many whole nights
F                 C
tearing the world limb from limb
F                    C
and finding nothing but ourselves
F                      C
that's what scares us most of all
F               C
but when we're walking
F        C
under streetlights
Am             C
we know these buildings
Am      F           G          C
could never be as beautiful as us
F               C
Huddled by the shortwave,
F               C
cheering on the BA
F                          C
We cried for the ones at Ludlow
F                           C
and sang songs about those beautiful months
   Am
in 1871
F                          C
and we'd like to think we've done our best
Am                 C
we've been scared many a time
Am   F      G      C
but we've never given in
