(muted)--- ---
You said we'd leave next year
G#m D# E
--- ---
Each year for thirteen years
G#m D# E
--- ---
Each year, it gets harder to hear
G#m D# E G#m D# E
It's getting harder now just to stay in love
---
G#m D# E
--- ---
And now our roots grow deep
G#m D# E
--- ---
Beneath these barren streets
G#m D# E
--- ---
I have the darkest dreams
G#m D# E
The city's pipes and wires
G#m D# E
Went through our nerves and veins
F# G#m E D# D# E D#
And those nights, after a double shift, I feel it
F# G#m E
The test plans you never dared to live
D# D# E D#
They used to light up your eyes
D# D# E D# G#m D# E
Those bulbs have long burned out

NC A#m F F#
Let a tornado tear through
NC G#m D# E
Let it tear straight through our roof
F#m C# D

And let the rain pour in
F#m C# D
--- ---
I'll scream, "Babe, this is it!"
F#m C# D
--- ---
We'll leave the house in ruins
F#m C# D F#m C# D
If we escape right now, we just might make it out
[Chorus]

This city, this city's killing us
