[Intro]
D Bm
 
[Verse]
D
Two kids out, wandering
Bm
Kingdom between our streets, highest I've ever been
 
With two feet on the pavement
D
Lost in a world we knew
Bm
Meanwhile, the cancer grew
 
But they were too scared to say
 
'Cause we're too young to get it
D Bm
.. Hmm-mm, ah-ah-ah, hmm-mm
D
Thought we were made of stone
Bm
That we would never fall
 
But still our castle's broke
 
Into a thousand pieces
 
[Chorus]
G
It's nothing like they promised
A
But how could we have known?
D A/C# Bm A G
In a world gone... up in smoke
G
How do we stay honest?
A
How do we not give up?
D
How do we stay in love? Hmm-mm
 
[Verse 2]
 
Alt playing-- only hit the lowest string in the chord, palm mute the rest.

D
I haven't seen you since
Bm D
The winter that I watched the house you grew up in
 
Turn into a prison
D
When you're mother passed away
Bm D
Angel in human skin, they would know words to say
N.C.
But fuck all our religions
 
[Chorus]

It's nothing like they promised

But how could we have known?

[Bridge]
D
Walking down these streets, I'm freezing
A/C#
All our footsteps, disappearing

Some places are built for leaving but
 
It's like we were never here
 
[Chorus]
G
It's nothing like they promised
A
But how could we have known?

In a world gone... up in smoke
