C(x32010)
G(320003)
F/C(x33211)
Dsus2(xx0230)
G*(xx543x)
D*(xx423x)
*these are optional, it's what he does in the song, you can hear that string going down
to F#/Gb but you can do the standard major positions for G and D just fine as they are
same notes.
INTRO:
C, G, F/C, Dsus2
VERSE 1:
C G F/C, Dsus2
standing in the dark outside the house
C G F/C, Dsus2
breathing in the cold and sterile air
F/C Am
well i was thinking how it must feel
Em Dsus2
to see that little light
F/C Am
and watch it as it disappears
Em G
and fades into, and fades into the night

VERSE 2:
C G F/C, Dsus2
so i know you're going pretty soon
C G F/C, Dsus2
radiation sore throat got your tongue
F/C Am
magic markers tattoo you
Em Dsus2
and show it where to aim
F/C Am
and strangers break their promises
Em G F/C C, F/C
you won't feel any, you wont feel any pain
BRIDGE:
C F/C
and the streets are jammed with cars
C G Am Dsus2
rockin' their horns to race to the wire
G* D* F/C F/C
of the un finished line
C, G, F/C, Dsus2
C, G, F/C, Dsus2
VERSE 3:
C G F/C, Dsus2
thought that i'd forget all about the past
C G F/C, Dsus2
but it doesn't let me run too fast
F/C Am
and i just wanna stand outside
Em Dsus2
and know that this is right
F/C Am
and this is true and i will not
Em G F/C, C, F/C
fade into, fade into the night
C F/C C, F/C, C
i'm standing here in the dark
F/C, C, F/C, C.
