D Dbm Bm
Does anyone have the time to bring you down?
A G D
And can I sleep all night long
Bb Bm
To the drums of the city rain?
A G A Em F#m G A
Just make it up, cause I'm awake all night long
D
To the drums of the city rain
Bm
And brother, if you have the chance to pick me up
A G D
And can I sleep on your couch
Bb Bm
To the pound of the ache and pain?
A G A Em F#m G A
Oh in my head, cause I'm awake all night long
To the drums of the city rain
[Chorus]
D Dbm Bm A
The lights we chase, the nights we steal
Em A F#m
The things that we take to make us feel this
(To the drums of the city rain)
F#m A G D
I can't go back, I don't think I will
Bm F#m G A
I won't sleep tonight as long as I still
G
Hear the drums of the city rain
(pick G)
[Verse 2]
D Bm
Does anyone have the guts to shut me up?
A G D
Cause I believe that every night
F#m G Bm
There's a chance we can walk away
D A G D E Bm F#m G A
So hold on tight because I won't wait too long
D
In the drums of the beating rain
Cause the night don't last and we leave alone
Will you drive me back?
Can you take me home?
(To the drums of the city rain)

Faces I don't know, I am tired in the glow

Of the freezing club keep me breathing

Don't make the lights come back

Can you take me home?

We all need this when we leave alone

D F#m Dm D
Remember when you and I would make things up?
G D
So many nights, just take me down

To the place we can hear them play

I miss that sound, cause now we don't sing so loud
F# F#m D
To the drums of the city rain

Like strangers laugh and like subways feel

Is all we have to keep us ill
A Em D F#m A F#m
I won't breathe tonight as long as I still

Hear the drums of the city rain
