[Intro]
A A/G# F#m
D A/C# Bm E7
[Verse 1]
A A/G# F#m
Cities of Gold, they always hold the promise of ruins
A A/G# F#m
The fountain of youth, we're running to, is just an illusion
Bm7 E E7
A glass is always half full, till you fill it to the top
Bm7 E E7
I remember when you're with me, I forget it when you're not
[Chorus]
A A/G# F#m
If life is a lesson, love is an action
D A/C# Bm E
If pain is a weapon, sorrow's attraction
F#m F#m7/E D A/C#
If you got our heartbeat, you know you got me
D A/C# Bm E
If a house is a building, home is a feeling
[Instumental]
A A/G# F#m
[Verse 2]
A A/G# F#m
Hickory floors, swing on a porch, don't mean a damn thing
A A/G# F#m
Sheets on a bed, ain't nothing but thread, if they're always empty
Bm7 E E7
With no one to wake up to, to make the lonely stop
Bm7 E E7
I remember when you're with me, I forget it when you're not
[Chorus]
A A/G# F#m
If life is a lesson, love is an action
D A/C# Bm E
If pain is a weapon, sorrow's attraction
F#m F#m7/E D A/C#
If you got our heartbeat, you know you got me
D A/C# Bm E7 C#7
If a house is a building, home is a feeling
[Bridge]
C#7 F#m F#m7/E
Walls they come alive
D D
When it’s just you and I
E E7
And I realize
[Chorus]
A A/G# F#m
If life is a lesson, love is an action
D A/C# Bm E
If pain is a weapon, you're my attraction
F#m F#m7/E D A/C#
If you got our heartbeat, you know you got me
D A/C# Bm E
If a house is a building, home is a feeling
D A/C# Bm E
If a house is a building, home is a feeling
[Outro]
(The outro is quite hard to pin down with all the improvisation going on. This seems reasonable.)
