Many days fell away with nothing to show

And the walls kept tumbling down

In the city that we l-o-v-e-d

Great clouds roll over the hills
G baritone chordG D baritone chordD
Bringing darkness from a-b-o-v-e

But if you close your eyes,

Does it almost feel like

Nothing changed at all?

And if you close your eyes,

Does it almost feel like

You've been here before?

In your pose as the dust settles around us
