(Verse)
D
So this is what you meant when you said that you were spent
A Bm
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top
Bm
Don't hold back
G D
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check
(Pre-chorus)
D A
I don't ever want to let you down
Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
G
Cause after all
G
This city never sleeps at night
(Chorus)
D
It's time to begin isn't it
Bm
I get a little bit bigger but then
Em
I'll admit I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am
D A Bm G
(Verse 2)
D
So this is where you fell and I am left to sell
A
The path that heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Bm
Right to the top
Bm
Don't look back
G D
Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain check
(Pre-chorus)
D A
I don't ever want to let you down
Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
G
Cause after all
G
This city never sleeps at night
(Chorus)
D
It's time to begin isn't it
Bm
I get a little bit bigger but then
Em
I'll admit I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Bm A
This road never looked so lonely
G
This house doesn't burn down slowly
Em G
To ashes to ashes
(Chorus)
Chorus/Outro
Bm
It's time to begin isn't it
A
I get a little bit bigger but then
G
I'll admit I'm just the same as I was
Em G
Now don't you understand
G
That I'm never changing who I am
