E B F#m
We labor in obscurity, but
E E A A
Never in vain
E B F#m
Play our hearts out in these dirty little bars, but
E E A A
Never in vain
E B F#m
Now we're sleepwalking through the soundcheck
E E A A
Turn 'em all up to 10
E B F#m
I'm wondering if tonight we'll make it
E E A
Fly again, I...
[Chorus 1]
F#m E
Love this ghost we're chasing
F#m E
Patterns we keep tracing
A
Scattered and strange
F#m F#m
Never in vain
[Verse 2]
E B F#m
It's like screaming in a deaf ear sometimes, but
E E A A
Never in vain
E B F#m
Unspendable riches and secret fame
E E A A
Never in vain
E B F#m
If the van breaks down tomorrow
E E A A
Just more of the same
E B F#m
We'll beg and steal and borrow
E E A
And make it fly again, I...
[Chorus 2]
F#m E
Love this ghost we're chasing
F#m E
Patterns we keep tracing
A
Scattered and strange
F#m F#m
Never in vain
[Bridge]
G#m A
I do admit it's hurting my feeliings
E B
We're going broke while everybody's stealing
G#m A
But we made a new friend gonna let us all
B A G#m F#m
Spend the night... never in
