[Verse]D
So this is what you meant when you said that you were spent?
A Bm
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top,
Bm
Don't hold back
G
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check
[Pre-Chorus]D A
I don't ever want to let you down
Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
G
'Cause after all
G
This city never sleeps at night...
[Chorus]D
It's time to begin, isn't it?
Bm
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
Em
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
D A Bm G
[Verse]D
So this is where you fell, and I am left to sell
A
the path that heaven runs through miles of clouded hell,
Bm
right to the top
Bm
Don't look back
G
Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain check
[Pre-Chorus]D
I don't ever want to let you down
A Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
G
'Cause after all
G
This city never sleeps at night...
[Chorus]D
It's time to begin, isn't it?
Bm
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
Em
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am?
D
It's time to begin, isn't it?
Bm
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
Em
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am?
[Bridge]Bm A
This road never looked so lonely,
G
This house doesn't burn down slowly,
Em G
to ashes, to ashes...
[Chorus]Bm
It's time to begin, isn't it?
A
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
G
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Em G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am?
Bm
It's time to begin, isn't it?
A
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
G
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Em G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am?
