verse 1
G Em
LA lights
C A7
never shine quite as bright as in the movies
G
Still wanna go?
G Em
'cause something here in the way,
C A7
In the way that we're constantly moving
G
Reminds you of home.
C Em

B Em
And you're drinking then down with cheap alcohol
C Em
And I'd be inclined to be yours for the taking
B Em
And part of this terrible mess that you're making,
C A7
But me,
A7
I'm the catalyst

Still love's all is all I see.

C A7
But you,
A7
you're the catalyst

And all of your thoughts on God

Don't know if I'm strong enough now.
C A7 G Em B
And you'll be vein, and you'll be the pain, you'll be the...
