Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][C][G][F][Am][C][Em][G][Gsus4]
[G][Am]
Under a blackened [C]sky

[Verse 1]
[G]
Far beyond the glar[F]ing
streetlight[Am]s
Sleeping on empty [C]dreams
The vul[G]tures lie in [Gsus4]wait[G][Am]
You lay down beside me [C]then[G]
You were with me every
[F]waking hou[Am]r
So close I [C]could feel [G]your
breath
[Gsus4]

[Verse 2]
[F]
When all [C]we [F]wanted [Am]was the dream
To [C]have and to hold [F]that
precious little thing
Like every gener[Am]ation yields
The new [C]born hope un[G]jaded by
their [Am]years

[Interlude 1]
[G][Am]
Pressed up [C]against the glass

[Verse 3]
[G]
I found myself want[F]ing [Am]sympathy
But to be con[C]sumed again
Oh, I [Gsus4]know wouldn't
be the death [C]of me
[Am]And there is a love

[Verse 4]
that's
inher[C]ently [G]given
A kind of blindness [F]offered to appease
[G]And[Am] in that light of for[C]bidden joy
Oh, [Gsus4]I know,
[C]I won't rec[Gsus4]eive it[C][F]

[Verse 5]
When all we wanted [Am]was the dream
[C]To have and to hold that
pre[F]cious little thing
Like every gener[Am]ation yields
A new[C]born hope un[G]jaded by their [Am]years
[C]

[Interlude 2]
[G][F][Am][G][C][F][G][Am]

[Verse 6]
You know if I [C]leave you [G]now
It doesn't mean that [F]I love
you any [Am]less
It's just the [C]state I'm in
I can't be [Gsus4]good to anyone
[G]else like [F]this
When all we wanted [Am]was the dream
[C]To have and to hold [F]that
precious little thing
Like every gener[Am]ation yields
The new [C]born hope un[G]jaded by their [Am]years

[Outro 1]
[G][Am][G][Am]
[G][C][G][Am][F][G][Am][C][Am][F]
