I was left to my own de-v-i-c-e-s

Many days fell away with nothing to show
[Pre-Chorus]

And the walls kept tumbling down

In the city that we l-o-v-e-d

Great clouds roll over the hills
Em D
Bringing darkness from a-b-o-v-e
[Chorus]
N.C. C
But if you close your eyes,
G
Does it almost feel like
Em D
Nothing changed at all?
C
And if you close your eyes,

Does it almost feel like

You've been here before?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
C G Em D
In your pose as the dust settles around us

Great clouds roll over the hills

Bringing darkness from a-b-o-v-e
