Note: I transcribed the lyrics myself, and I missed some of it out.
[??] means I didn't catch what he was singing, and
(?) means I'm not 100% sure of the lyric.
Enjoy.
Intro:
|C |F |C |F |C |F |Dm |F |
Am Em
First born, here to stay
Am Em
Two big kids [??]
F Dm
I know you won't walk out the door today
Am G
The way you looked, and then
Am Em
She said, "take this, you could feel okay"
Am Em F
No use for a sober (?) running home with nothing [??] except
Dm Am G
Stuck in between and lying in fear beside you [??]
Dm
'Cause this wall was built to last us
Am
No one cares if they didn't ask the boy (board?)
C G
Do you want to die in vain?
Dm
These walls keep moving past us
Am
No one knows if they'll get to have someone
C G
How would I live without you, anymore?
Am F C C/B
'Cause your love isn't worth the wait
Am F C C/B
The new world isn't worth the hate
Am F C C/B
Lord knows your friends will never change you, time and time again
Dm F
'Cause all I want now is to see you running high
|Am Em |Am Em |F Am |C Em |
Am Em
You sat still then you turned us loose
Am Em
Stayed for each other, fell for the truth
F Dm
And we lay together with swollen hearts
Am G
It makes sense before you tear us apart
Am Em
Do we need to celebrate?
Am Em
No-one is alone, and everyone is afraid to say
F Dm F G
"Fuck you for leaving us, fuck you for leaving us in pain"
Dm
Starships (?) float past us
Am C G
So it seems it was (?) hardly a match for the wall of water filling up the houses [??]
Dm Am
You stay here only after, I can't remember if you mattered to me before
C G
Do you really want to know? Doesn't matter what I say
Am F C C/B
'Cause your love isn't worth the wait
Am F C C/B
The new world isn't worth the hate
Am F C C/B
Lord knows your friends will never change you, time and time again
Dm F
'Cause all I want now is to see you running high
C F
'Cause they don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
C F
They don't love you anyway
|C |F |C |F |C |F |Dm |F |
End on C.
