G D Em
Please remember the nights that we spent
Am C
In the city where you lay
G D Bm
We were young and nearly famous
Em D C
But lightning strikes and buildings fall
G
And everything did change
C D G
Come on Dakota tell me you don't wish I was still the same
G D Em
I know a man dressed as a woman
Am C
Heels, curly wig, and nails
G D Bm
Fell for a boy who sold him powder and pills
Em
And the younger boy
D
With the older man
C G
He made it all wrong
C D G
And in Dakota these awful things burn away with the sun
C D G
Yes in Dakota these awful things are gone with morning sun

G D Em
There was a boy who sang his song just different
Am C
So they stabbed him in the arms
G D Bm
Blood washed down him like a faucet
Em
He cried for help
D
And no one came
C G
He died in the rain
C D G
And in Dakota one day he will wake up unchanged
C D G
Yes in Dakota one day you will wake up unchained

G D Em
Please remember the nights that we spent
Am C
In the city where you lay
G D Bm
We and young and nearly famous
Em D C
But thunder cracks and buildings burn
G
Everything will change
C D G
Come on Dakota I know we can always be the same
C D G
And in Dakota I know we can always be the same
C D G
Yes in Dakota it's ok to feel a little strange
