Intro : G  D  C

G        D        C      G        D       C
Monday's got us running to our knees again
    G                 C                 D
It seems we're always waiting on the floor
     G    D      C          G       D     C
Our destination Sunday is full of the unknown
           G               C                D
But we're building our own bridges to the shore
                      C
In hopes for so much more

Silent eyes are watching we're beginning to explore
But the lights are growing dim because we are poor
Isn't this the place we're practicing belief
Seems we're always looking at the door In hopes for so much more

          D            C                D               C
And the stories in my pockets are the best I've ever lived
     D                 G         C
So what if they don't sell sell sell
      D                  C               D          C
I'll take you out for coffee and we'll talk about D.C.
    D              G              C
And Philly underneath October moons

Fall is walking us into a cold December wind
And maybe we won't last too long
But maybe we will make it to play a brave new song
Mixing up the failure with the new
In hopes for something true

And the paintings on the walls here are the best we've ever done
An experiment in abstract dreams
And the colors are colliding in strange redemptive hues
What we got here is a good slow burn
What we got here is a good true thing
Am           C     Am              C
A good true thing, a good true thing

Stories in my pockets are the best I've ever lived
And so what if they don't sell sell sell
I'll take you out for coffee and we'll talk about D.C.
And Philly underneath October moons
    D            G         C
And Colorado's sweeping news
   D               G         C
And L.A. keeping four 'in time
        Am                        C
You're always setting dreams on fire
Am                          C
Always setting dreams on fire
