Intro: 
 
Emadd9 Amadd9 (4x) 

Emadd9 
When the morning was clear 
Blackened affairs 
        Cmaj7 
And she could not breathe 
Asus2 
Cause she felt scared 
          Em 
Couldn't help but stare 
G6 
Out of the window 
Cmaj7       Asus2 
Didn't know she wouldn't go outside 


Emadd9 Amadd9 (2x) 


Emadd9 
She wouldn't answer the door 
Curtains were drawn 
        Cmaj7 
And the house was cold 
Asus2 
Children were old 
         Em 
And they did not care 
G6 
That's what she thought 
          Cmaj7 
When they tried to help 
    Asus2 
But she wouldn't answer the door 


Emadd9 Amadd9 


                   Asus2         Em 
And the love were hoping for is dying 
               Cmaj7                Emadd9 
Just like this city, that we're all in 


Emadd9 Amadd9 (2x) 


Emadd9 
As time went on 
Felt she belonged 
      Cmaj7 
In a trapped domain 
Asus2 
Drove her insane 
        Em 
And the men she loved 
G6 
Over the years 
           Cmaj7 
They would only use her 
Asus2               Emadd9 
They would only use her 

                      Asus2         Em 
Cause the love we're hoping for is dying 
               Cmaj7                Emadd9 
Just like this city, that we're all in 


Emadd9 
When the morning was clear 
Blackened affairs 
        Cmaj7 
And she could not breathe 
Asus2 
Cause she felt scared 
          Em 
Couldn't help but stare 
G6 
Out of the window 
Cmaj7       Asus2 
Even though she never went outside 


                    Asus2         Em 
And the love we're hoping for is dying 
               Cmaj7                Emadd9 
Just like this city, that we're all in 
                    Asus2         Em 
And the love we're hoping for is dying 
               Cmaj7                Emadd9 
Just like this city, that we're all in
