[Verse 1]
      Am                            G
These buildings, they all look the same
         Am                         G
They are coffins with windows and doors
   Am                           G
We all love to breathe in the flames
    F                         Am
So long as we aren't burned alive

Am, G, Am, G


[Verse 2]
    Am                      G
The telephone told us your name
 Am                         G
Pretend to be you when I'm high
   Am                      G
We all love to be someone else
    F                       Am
So long as we aren't given away

[Verse 3]
  Am                         G
I borrowed your hands for a while
  Am                        G
I started a band that broke up
    Am                           G
The songs, they all sounded the same
  F                        Am
No one thought that I was you


Am  G  Am  G


[Verse 4]
  Am                       G
I pictured us both as the sky
    Am                                G
The people below us were shooting us down
      Am                         G
We're taking the life from the stars
     F                  Am
It's never our turn to shine
