[Verse]

C#m                B             A
    Snow and sleet, on Saturday
      E          B            C#m
I had 8 hours of hell to pay
                B                            A
Week after week, third floor bachelor suite
                    E                 B       A
The atmosphere just stinks of rotting apathy


[Chorus]

           E   B    A
Romance of ordinary type
         E          B             A
I need a better way another day a different time
            E            B     A
This liquor sheen smiles in my eyes
              C#m           B             A
I'm searching for an anchor in this empty night


[Verse]

C#m              B            A
    Walking home, on the same street
   E             B               C#m
it never used to look like this
              B                  A
The skeletons, they're secretly
          E              B     A
living in all these condominiums


[Chorus]

         E         B         A
And all across the northeast side
       E               B                       A
The evolution of these streets is sucking them of their life
               E           B     A
Their meat and spirits swallowed alive
                C#m     B           A
There's nothing new the city is for sale

[Bridge]

    C#m              B
The day was long, it almost killed me
      A                     F#
And I don't belong, but the drinks are flowing
C#m                       B
Snow and Ice, give way to summer's new life
      A             F#
north avenue, above lakeshore drive


[Outro]

    C#m       Amaj7        E         B
The sun drops down, behind west side buildings
    C#m  Amaj7          E     B
The city lights, run so soft against the sky
    C#m       Amaj7                E      B
And from this bridge, i watch cars fast below me
    C#m    Amaj7
And all my fears, and troubles
E           B
Won't leave here with me
A
Tonight
