[Verse 1]
C                   C/B
  Coming out of my cage
                          F
And I've been doing just fine
F
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
C                       C/B
  It started out with a kiss
                         F
How did it end up like this?
N.C
It was only a kiss
C                   C/B
  Now I'm falling asleep
                     F
And she's calling a cab
F
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking the drag
C                      C/B
  Now they're going to bed
                   F
And my stomach is sick
N.C
And it's all in my head
F
But she's touching his
[Pre-Chorus]
 Am
Сhest now
                   G
He takes off her dress now
       F
Let me go
Am
  I just can't look
      G
It's killing me
     F
And taking control
[Chorus]
C
Jealousy
F               Am
Turning saints into the sea
G                      C
Swimming through sick lullabies
F               Am
Choking on your alibis
G                  C
But it's just the price I pay
F          Am
Destiny is calling me
G          C     F
Open up my eager eyes
Am                  G
   ‘Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
C   F  Am   G
C   F  Am   G

    E                    E
But I don't believe you.
[Chorus]
D           D               Gmaj7/B           Gmaj7/B
  Saw Cinderella in a party dress but she was looking for a nightgown.
A           A                     D                   D/F#
  I saw the devil wrapping up his hands, he's getting ready for the showdown.
G           D/F#          (D/A#)    Bm          A                 D             D
  I saw the minute that I turned away, I got my money on a palm tonight.
[Verse]
    D                 D            A              G
The change came in disguise of revelation set his soul on fire.
    D/A             Gmaj7/B         D             D
She says she always knew he'd come around.
        D            D                 Bm                  Bm
And the decades disappear like sinking ships that we persevere.
             G                  G/B            D         D
God gives us hope, but we still fear, we don't know, the mind is poison.
Bm               Bm                G              G
  Castles in the sky sit stranded, vandalised.
    E                      E
The drawbridge is closing.
D/A         D/A             Gmaj7/B           Gmaj7/B
  Saw Cinderella in a party dress but she was looking for a nightgown.
A           A                     D                   D/F#
  I saw the devil wrapping up his hands, he's getting ready for the showdown.
G           D/F#             (D/A#)     Bm               A                 D
  I saw the ending when they turned the page, I threw my money and I ran away.
                D/F#                   A
Straight to the valley of the great divide.
[Middle Eight:]
A                          D     D               (A)        G
  Out where the dreams all hide,   out where the wind don't blow.
G              (A)        Bm   Bm        (A)       D
  Out here the good girls die,   and the sky won't snow.
D              (A)        G     G              (A)         G
  Out here the bird don't sing,   out here the field don't grow.
G              (A)        Bm    B7                        E       E7
  Out here the bell don't ring,   out here the bell don't ring.

Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, it's such a bitter form of refuge.
A              A                        D          D/F#
  Oh don't you know the kingdom's under siege? And everybody needs you.
G                D/F#         (D/A#)   Bm              A                       D
  Is there still magic in the midnight sun? Or did you leave it back in 'Sixty-One?
       D/F#                     G     G               (A)         D
In the cadence of a young man's eyes,   and where the dreams roll high
C G F - F C G x2
 C           G              F
Blonde hair blowing in the summer wind
 F         C           G
Blue eyed girl playing in the sand
      C           G            F
I've been on the trail for a little while
     F            C              G                      F
But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand
         Am
Teenage rush
         Dm
She said
                   G
Ain't we all just runaways?
        F                  Am
We got time and that ain't much
          G            F
We can't wait 'till tomorrow
           G                 Am
You gotta know that this is real
       F
Baby, why you wanna fight it?
         Am         C         F
It's the one thing you can't choose
   G Am F
Oh!
C         G          F
We got engaged on a friday night
   F            C           G
I swore on the head of our unborn child
     C             G           F
That I could take care of the three of us
    F              C          G                        F
But I've got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild
            Am
It's in my blood
Dm                          G
  You said she might just runaway
           F              Am
Somewhere else, someplace good
          G           F
We can't wait 'till tomorrow
           G                 Am
You gotta know that this is real
       F
Baby, why you wanna fight it?
         Am         C         F
It's the one thing you can't choose

Let's take a chance, baby we can't lose
                  C   G    F
Ain't we all just runaways?
                  F
I knew it when I met you
C              G       C   G   F
I'm not gonna let you runaway
                  F
I knew it when I held you
   C             G
I wasn't letting go
            Em                       Am
We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams
           F
Hold each other 'till the morning light
    C                     Am
We used to laugh, now we only fight
 G                    F
Baby are you lonesome now?
            C         G         F
At night I come home after they go to sleep
         F         C       G
Like a stumbling ghost I haunt this hall
            C        G           F
There's a picture of us on our wedding day
        F        C          G                     F
I recognize the girl but I can't settle in these walls
          G          F
We can't wait 'till tomorrow
           G                Am
No we're caught up in the appeal
       F
Baby, why you wanna hide it?
          Am        C      F
It's the last thing on my mind (Why you wanna hide it?)
   G
I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive
                  C   G    F
Ain't we all just runaways?
                 F
I knew it when I met you
C              G       C  G   F
I'm not gonna let you runaway
                  F
I knew it when I held you
   C             G
I wasn't letting go
                  C   G    F
Ain't we all just runaways?

G                                         Dsus4
You were standing with your girlfriends in the streets
Cadd9          Em7    Dsus4            Em7 Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be
G                                         Dsus4
I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes
Cadd9           Em7    Dsus4              Em7 Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirls' lies
Cadd9                           Em7
When I look back on those neon nights
The leather seats, the passage rite
Cadd9                      Em7 Dsus4
I feel the heat, I see the light
G
Miss Atomic Bomb
             Dsus4
Making out, we've got the radio on
Cadd9                      Em7
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Cadd9                      Em7 Dsus4
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
[Chorus]
G
Racing shadows in the moonlight
          Dsus4
Through the desert on a hot night
Cadd9                       Em7
And for a second there we'd won
Cadd9                       Em7 Dsus4
Yeah, we were innocent and young
G  -  Dsus4  -  Cadd9  -  Em7  -  Cadd9  -  Em7 Dsus4 (x2)
[Verse]
G                                               Dsus4
Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish heart
Cadd9                       Em7                         A7sus4     Em7 Dsus4
So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part
G                                                Dsus4
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack
Cadd9                                         Em7
Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black
Cadd9                                            Em7 A7sus4
You should have seen your little face, burnin' for love
Em7 Dsus4
Holdin on' for your life
Cadd9                       Em7
All that I wanted was a little touch,
A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no
Cadd9
Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time
G
Miss Atomic Bomb
        Dsus4
Making out, we've got the radio on
Cadd9                        Em7
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Cadd9                        Em7 Dsus4
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
[Chorus]
G
Racing shadows in the moonlight

We're taking chances on a hot night
Cadd9                          Em7
And for a second there we'd won
Cadd9                          Em7 Dsus4
Yeah we were innocent and young
G
The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
G                                Dsus4
Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing here
Cadd9
Sweat on my skin
          Em7                 Cadd9
And this love that I've cradled
             Em7 Dsus4              G
Is wearing thin (Miss Atomic Bomb)
                      Dsus4                 Cadd9
But I'm standing here and you're too late
   Em7            Cadd9          Em7 Dsus4
Your shock-wave whisper has sealed your fate
G                                                     Dsus4
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack (and you turn your back, you're so)
Cadd9                                             Em7
Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black (on a losing game)
Cadd9                                             Em7 Dsus4
You should have seen your little face, burning for love,
G
(Miss Atomic Bomb) Holdin' on for your life
Dsus4
But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch)
G                                                     Dsus4
When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much)
Cadd9                                              Em7

 Don't let her stick it to your heart so hard

C#m                     A
 All of my friends say
       B            E
 She's just another girl
E
 Then why can't I sleep at night
B
 And why don't the moon look right
C#m                            A
 The sound's off but the TV's on
                            B
 And it's a great big world
[Outro]
                   A
She's just another girl,
                                         B
Don't let her stick it to your heart boys
                   A
She's just another girl
                  B                   E     B
All my friends say she's just another girl
        C#m   A B E
Another girl

  I drove through the desert last night
E                C#m                G#m   A B
  I carried the weight of our last fight
 E                      C#m                 G#m
Elvis singing "Don't be Cruel" and I wonder if you feel it too
      A                B
It's like we're going under.
C#m                       F#m                     G#m
   Somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda County line,
                    A                 B
The question of my heart came to my mind:
        A        E
If I go on with you by my side,
       A   E       B             A
Can it be the way it was when we met?
          E                     B
Did you forget all about those golden nights?
E             C#m              G#m   A B
  Maybe if thieves stole your heart
E             C#m           G#m
  Or maybe we just drifted apart.
     A       B
I remember driving
E               C#m                   G#m
  In my daddy's car to the airfield, blanket on the hood,
 A                 B
Backs against the windshield.
C#m                          F#m                           G#m
   Back then this thing was running on momentum, love and trust.
                   A            B
That paradise is buried in the dust.
        A        E
If I go on with you by my side,
       A   E       B             A
Can it be the way it was when we met?
          E                     B
Did you forget all about those golden nights?
(The way it was, it was)
F#m                               C#m
   All of our plans are falling through.
F#m                                  B A
   Sometimes a dream, it don't come true.
A - E - B (x2)
    A     E
Darling, Darling
                    A
(If we go on can it be)
       A   E      B               A
Can it be the way it was when we met?
          E                     B
Did you forget all about them golden nights?
        A        E
If I go on with you by my side,
       A   E      B
Can it be the way it was?
             A                E
My heart is true, girl, it's just you
             B
I'm thinking of
       A              E
Can it be the way it was?
C#m - G#m - A - B
E         C#m              G#m  A  B
 (Maybe thieves stole your heart.)
