AmHere in the streets so mechanised
GRise to the bottom of the meaning of life
AmStudied all the rules and I want no part
GBut I let you in just to break this heart
AmEven though it was only one night it was
G........Fucking strange


AmNina's in the bedroom, 
GShe said time to go now
       DBut leavin', it ain't easy
      EI've got to let go, Oh I've got to let go
          GAnd the hours they ran slow
I said every night she just can't stop sayin'
