[Verse 1]
E B
I exist too much, so I try to hide
A
I'm in the uniform with the sad ghost eyes
E B
And all the roads feel empty on the valley side
A
It's the devil's hour in a soulless town and we're all vampires
[Chorus]
E B
I've been working on the night shift, night shift
C#m A
Feeling like a sidekick to myself
E F#m
Feet up on the desk, lonely as it gets
G#m A
And I know no one will find me
E B
Working on the night shift, night shift
C#m A
"Ticktock, " goes the clock on my wrist
E F#m
Watching re-runs, 21 Jump street
G#m A
And I wonder if these nights will ever end
[Post-Chorus]
E B
Will they ever end? (Ah, ah, ah)
C#m A
Will they ever end? (Ah, ah, ah)
E F#m
Will they ever end? (Ah, ah, ah)
G#m A
[Verse 2]
E B
I think my dream cashed out and it hung me dry
A
And my will broke down on the highway side
E B
So I left that altar with my shotgun bride
A
To an old motel, but it feels like hell in the dark sometimes
[Chorus]
E B
I've been working on the night shift, night shift
C#m A
Feeling like a sidekick to myself
E F#m
Feet up on the desk, lonely as it gets
G#m A
And I know no one will find me
E B
Working on the night shift, night shift
C#m A
"Ticktock, " goes the clock on my wrist
E F#m
Watching re-runs, 21 Jump street
G#m A
And I wonder if these nights will ever end
