C          D          Em
There's a buzzard of gulls
  G                C
Travelling in the wind
C     D      Em
Only lovers alive
 G              C
Running in the dark

Chorus:
Am    G       C                 Am
Anna rolled away, said we never wanted much
Am      G     C                          Am
Just a rollercoast', our love has never known
the way
Am     G       C                           Am
Sugar for the pill, you know it's just the way
things are
Am      G       C                       Am
Cannot buy the sun, this jealousy will break
the whole

Cut across the sky
And move a little closer now
Lying in a bed of greed
You know I had the strangest dream
