[Verse 1]
C F G F
A break in the clouds is a break in my day
G F C
Face the sun of my salvation
C F G F
As Hathaway Jones would have made it his own feet
G F C
Fly by the wings of your creation
[Chorus 1]
F C G
On the top of your head, there is a poem
Am F
The thought in my head, oh God only knows
C G
As everything else will disappoint you
F C G Am F
I used to be young and bold, but now I'm afraid, I'm getting so old
C G
I followed the light to the City of Roses

[Verse 2]
C F G F
It's a little-known fact that I can't cope
G F C
I'm the champion of repression
C F G F
I've had it enough with the east coast
G F C
I'll die by the wings of my ambition
[Chorus 2]
F C G
The city I left, the city of throes
Am F
The one that I loved, the city of hope
C G
As everything else will disappoint you
F C G Am F
I used to be young and bold, but now I'm of age, I'm getting so old
C G
I followed the light to the City of Roses

A break in the clouds is a break in my day
