Verse
CThis town was a Emlovers stage
But Gnow you can't Crecognise
CThe streetlights that are Emdaggers to your Geyes
FYou can't find your Ambearings
You're Fslipping into the Cground
The Fscene has no Amcolour and no Emsound. G
Verse
CYou still Embelieve in me
GAfter the things I've Cdone
CYou fear for Emwhat we have Gbecome
FThe ground is Amuneven
FYou stumble from day to Cday
FYou tread where it's Ameasy
Although your Emfeet are like lead
And you Ggotta get underway F
Chorus
FDrag your Cheart up to the Emstarting Amline
FForget the Cghosts that make you Gold before your time
FIt's too Ceasy to get Emleft Ambehind
I Dmknow you've been kicked around
But Ftie up your thoughts and lay them down on me.

Verse
CEach heart is a Empaper kite Gblown around by the Ambreeze
CLove won't rest till it Embrings you to your Gknees
FSome find it Ameasy Fsome will never even Cknow
FYou think you've done your Amjourney
Then you Emstumble and find that there's Gsuch a long way to go
Chorus
FDrag your Cheart Emup to the Amstarting line
FForget the Cghosts that make you Gold before your time
FIt's too Ceasy to get Emleft Ambehind
I Dmknow you've been kicked around
FYou wanna be lost but now you're found
BbLet's take the back way into town
FDrink to the bad times
Lay them down on me

Verse
CGirl I still Embelieve in you
You're too Ggood to fall so Clow
CWe're gonna find a Embetter life I Gknow
FThings will be Amclearer
FAs soon as we make a Cstart
FWe'll be that much Amnearer
We're too Emold to just stand here Gwaiting to break Fapart
Chorus
FDrag your Cheart Emup to the Amstarting line
FForget the Cghosts that make you Gold before your time
FIt's too Ceasy to get Emleft Ambehind
I Dmknow you've been kicked around
FBut tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me. COn Emme... G C
