                   Am
You're not in this alone
        G                  D/F#
Let me break this awkward silence
        F         Am
Let me go, go on record
        G               D/F#
Be the first to say I'm sorry
         F
Hear me out
            Am      G/B
And if you take me down
         D/F#    F
Would you lay me out
            Am                    G/B
And if the world needs something better
                D/F#             F
Let's give them one more reason now, now, now

Am         G/B
We walk in single file,
    C                    E/G#
we light our rails, and punch our time
Ride escalators colder than a cell (C'mon!)

Chorus:
               F                     Em
This broken city sky, like butane on my skin
                Am
And stolen from my eyes
      G                F       Em
Hello Angel, tell me where are you
          Am              C
Tell me where we go from here
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes, hello angel, tell me
Where are you?
Tell me where we go from here,tell me, we go from

A#
And in this moment,
           F
we can't close the lids, on burning eyes
A#
Our memories blanket us,
       F
with friends we know, like fallout vapors

Steel corpses stretch out towards an ending sun
Scorched and black,
it reaches in and tears your flesh apart
As ice cold hands rip into your heart

That's if you've still got one that's left
Inside that cave you call a chest
And after seeing what we saw
Can we still reclaim our innocence?
And if the world needs something better
Let's give them one more reason, now

Chorus:
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes, hello angel, tell me
Where are you?
Tell me where we go from here
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes, hello angel, tell me
Where are you?
Tell me where we go from here, tell me, we go from here
