C5  E b3 G6 F2
In  other   lives

C5   E b3    G6   F2                      C5
In a bulletproof suit with some friends of mine

C5  E b3  G6    F2
I wrote the plotline

C5 D4 E b3 Ebadd9 Cm   G/B
Only  I    knew   who survived

Ebadd9 Cm  G/B
Who        survived

C5  E b3    G6   F2
And through the   night

C5  E b3    G6    F2              C5
In a really fast  car on an uphill climb

C5  E b3 G6 F2
Blew past a danger sign

C5  D4    E b3   Ebadd9 Cm   G/B
And fell through darkness, sublime

     Ebadd9 Cm   G/B
But awoke just in time

Am    G

F                           Am      G
They're gonna come to light tonight

F                           Am      G
They're gonna come to light tonight

F                           Am      G
They're gonna come to light tonight

F                        C5
But not for the last time

Verse 2:

C5  E b3 G6 F2
In  younger days

C5  E b3  G6  F2                   C5
I   do    my  schoolwork while the neighbors play
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/copeland/when_you_thought_youd_never_stand_out_crd.html ]
C5  E b3 G6 F2
But stare into space

C5  D4  E b3  Ebadd9 Cm   G/B
With no feeling      to   convey

       Ebadd9  Cm    G/B
With no look   on my face

(same)
In younger days
I'm stealing bases while my mother prays
And dreading to wake
Longing for one more play


Chorus:

Am        G

F                                 Am     G
They're gonna come to light tonight

F                                 Am     G
They're gonna come to light tonight

F                                 Am     G
They're gonna come to light tonight

F
But not for the last time
