4 -4 5 6 -5 5 -4 5 4
Standing in the dark outside the house
4 -4 5 6 -5 5 -4 5 4
Breathing in the cold and sterile air
4 -6 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6
Well i was thinking how it must feel
4 -6 6 5 6 -6
To see that little light
4 -6 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6
And watch it as it disappears
4 -6 6 6
And fades into
4 -6 6 5 -4 4
And fades into the night4 -4 5 6 -5 5 -4 5 4
So i know you're going pretty soon
4 -4 5 6 -5 5 -4 5 4
Radiation sore throat got your tongue
-6 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6
Magic markers tattoo you
4 -6 6 5 6 -6
And show it where to aim
4 -6 7 7 7 -7 -6
And strangers break their promises
4 -6 6 6
You won't feel any
4 -6 6 5 -4 4
You won't feel any pain4 4 -6 6 5 -4 4
And the streets are jammed with cars
6 6 6 -6
Rockin' their horns
-7 7 8 7 -8
To race to the wire
-6 -6 -7 -6 -6 6
Of the unfinished lineBRIDGE:
4 -4 5 6 -6 6 5
6 4 -5 5 -4 44 -4 5 6 -5 5 5 -4 5 4
Thought that i'd forget all about the past
4 -4 5 6 -5 5 -4 5 4
But it doesn't let me run too fast
4 -6 7 7 7 -7 -6 -6
And i just wanna stand outside
4 -6 6 5 6 -6
And know that this is right
4 -6 7 7
And this is true
7 -7 -6 -6
And i will not
-6 6 6
Fade into
-6 6 5 -4 4
Fade into the night
