E F#
Green light, Seven Eleven
A E
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
E F#
You don't smoke, don't even want to
A E
Hey now, check your change
E F#
Dressed up like a car crash
A E
Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
F#m E-E-E
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
F#m E-E-E
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
E F# A E
Hey babe, is that what it is
II (same chords)
Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depend's on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows
bRIDGE:
F#m C#m
And if you look, you look through me
A
And when you talk, you talk at me
E
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
cHORUS:
F#m
If I could stay...
E E-E-E-E
Then the night would give you up
F#m E E-E-E-E
Stay...and the day would keep its trust
F#m A E
Stay...and the night would be enough
III (same chords)
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin
BRIDGE:
(SAME CHORDS)
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you
CHORUS:
(SAME CHORDS)
If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...then the day would keep its trust
Stay...with the demons you drowned
Stay...with the spirit I found
Stay...and the night would be enough
IV (same chords)
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel
Hits the ground
