Intro: Em G C x2
Verse 1:
Em G
We used to be something surreal
C
Others looked to us for what we built
Em G
We were envied until the point
C
The point in which we fell
Em G C
We fell by the wayside, and slowly watched ourselves die
Em G
A lonely death in which no one cared and no one came
D C
When the walls cave in, we only have ourselves to blame
Chorus:
Em D/F# C
And even if it's dark at least we'll be together
Em D/F# C
Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever
Em D/F# C
You better grab a hold and hold on for your life
D
Because you don't get lucky twice
Verse 2: (You don't have to play the chords in the parentheses)
Em G (D/F#) C
Now even if it's perfect, I can't get carried away
Em G (D/F#) C
And motivate my tongue in twisted ways
Em G C
It felt like a good night, for dancing and the moonlight
Em G (D/F#) D
In empty streets, well, everybody's got a reason why
Dsus C
If we could only just get it right
Chorus:
Em D/F# C
Maybe it will all work out like in the movies
Em D/F# C
But I know Romeo must die before the ending
Em D/F# C
With a final poison kiss delivered gently
D G G Em C
Because you don't get lucky twice, and that's the truth
Bridge:
G G D/F#
Sing to me sweet, just like my memory
Em
If New York City still moves me
C
Then I found something real
G G D/F#
I'll be okay, I could go on for days
Em D C
But I just don't have the courage that it takes to be real
Chorus:
Em D/F# C
And even if it's dark at least we'll be together
Em D/F# C
Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever
Em D/F# C
You better grab a hold and hold on for your life
D
Because you don't get lucky twice
D
No, you don't get lucky twice
G G Em C
