Passenger - Lifes for the living

Well grey c^Amlouds wraped round the ^Fmaj7town like elastic C^Gars stood like toys made of T^Caiwanese p^Em7lastic Am Fmaj7 G Gadd4 G The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain While l^Amaundrettes cleaned clothes, high ^Fmaj7heals rub toes P^Guddles splashed huddles of ^Cbus stop ^Em7crows Am Fmaj7 G Gadd4 G Dressed in their suits and their boots well they all look the same

I t^Fook myself down to the c^Gafe to find all the ^Cboys lost in ^Em7books and cr^Amackling ^Gvinyl And c^Farved out a poem a^Gbove the urinal that r^Cead ^C7 Don't you cr^Fy for the lost Sm^Gile for the living G^Cet what you ^Em7need and g^Amive what you're g^Given L^Fife's for the living so l^Give it Or you're better off d^Amead

While the ^Amevening pulled the moon ^Fmaj7out of it's packet St^Gars shone like buttons on an ^Cold man's j^Em7acket Am Fmaj7 G Gadd4 G We needed a nail but we tacked it 'til it fell of the wall While p^Amigeon's pecked trains, sparks fl^Fmaj7ew like planes The r^Gain showed the rainbows in th^Ce oil st^Em7ains Am Fmaj7 G Gadd4 G And we all had new iPhones but no one had no one to call

And ^FI stumbled down to the s^Gtomach of the town Where the w^Cidow takes m^Em7emories ^Amto slowly dr^Gown With a h^Fand to the sky and a m^Gist in her eye she s^Caid ^C7 Don't you cr^Fy for the lost Sm^Gile for the living G^Cet what you ^Em7need and g^Amive what you're g^Given L^Fife's for the living so l^Give it Or you're better off d^Amead

Well I'm s^Amick of this town, this bl^Fmaj7ind man's forage They t^Gake your dreams down and st^Cick them in st^Em7orage Am Fmaj7 G Gadd4 G You can have them back son when you've paid off your mortgage and loans Oh h^Amell with this place, I'll go ^Fmaj7it my own way I'll st^Gick out my thumb and I tr^Cudge down the ^Em7highway Am Fmaj7 G Gadd4 G Someday someone must be going my way home

Till then ^FI'll make my bed from a d^Gisused car With a m^Cattress of l^Em7eaves and a bl^Amanket of st^Gars And I'll st^Fitch the words into my h^Geart with a needle and thr^Cead ^C7 Don't you cr^Fy for the lost Sm^Gile for the living G^Cet what you ^Em7need and g^Amive what you're g^Given You know l^Fife's for the living so l^Give it Or you're better off d^Cead ^C7

Sm^Gile for the living G^Cet what you ^Em7need and g^Amive what you're g^Given L^Fife's for the living so l^Give it
