I couldn’t leave this town

G		   C
I got a skyscraper soul
Em				   Dadd4/add2
Like a flower that comes where the sun never goes

Filling my heart where there once was a hole 


(Pattern 1)
Em		    C
Look out my window, watching the sun go down
G	      Dadd4/add2
On the crowds below

Life can be hard, I know

To this hollowed ground

Looks are deceiving, There’s a heart beating
G	              Dadd4/add2
Here in this battered town
