CAPO 2
VERSE
G D
Hold on, don't spit me out
Em C
I have never held you so tight
G D
Run, run, please close your eyes
Em C
I have never seen you so tired
G D
Em C
Are we just like them? Are we just like them?
G D
I've pushed, pushed you so far
Em C
It's the only way I know how
G C
Maybe you, maybe you should know
G D
That I've lost you, I've lost you
Em C
That I've lost you now, I've lost you
[Refrão]G D
Can you hear the choir sing?
Em
We never made it to the old town, my God
C
We never made it very far away from here
VERSE
G D
Days go by without words
Em C
Is it 'cause you don't want me around?
G D
Just make up, make up your mind
Em C
'Cause sometimes it hurts to be kind
G C
Maybe you, maybe you should know
G D
That I've lost you, I've lost you
Em C
That I've lost you now, I've lost you
CHORUS
G D
Can you hear the choir sing?
Em
We never made it to the old town, my God
C
We never made it very far away from here
G D
Can you hear the choir sing?
Em
We never made it to the old town
C
We never made it very far away
G D
Well, can you hear the sirens sound?
Em
We only wanted to get messed up 'round here
C
We only wanted to be sure that we would fall
G D
Can you hear the choir sing?
Em
We never made it to the old town, my God
C G
We never made it very far away from here
