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