You said we'd leave next year
Gm D D#
--- ---
Each year for thirteen years
Gm D D#
--- ---
Each year, it gets harder to hear
Gm D D# Gm D D#
It's getting harder now just to stay in love

Gm D D#
--- ---
And now our roots grow deep
Gm D D#
--- ---
Beneath these barren streets
Gm D D#
--- ---
I have the darkest dreams
Gm D D#
The city's pipes and wires
Gm D D#
Went through our nerves and veins
F Gm D# D D D# D
And those nights, after a double shift, I feel it
F Gm D#
The test plans you never dared to live
D D D# D
They used to light up your eyes
D D D# D Gm D D#
Those bulbs have long burned out

Let a tornado tear through

Let it tear straight through our roof

And let the rain pour in

I'll scream, "Babe, this is it!"
Fm C C#

We'll leave the house in ruins

If we escape right now, we just might make it out
