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