[Intro]
D Bm......
[Verse 1]
DTwo kids out, wandering
BmKingdom between our streets, highest I've ever been
With two feet on the pavement
DLost in a world we knew
BmMeanwhile, the cancer grew
But they were too scared to say
'Cause we're too young to get it
D Bm..Hmm-mm, ah-ah-ah, hmm-mm
DThought we were made of stone
BmThat we would never fall
But, still, our castle's broke
Into a thousand pieces
[Chorus]
GIt's nothing like they promised
ABut how could we have known?
D A/C# Bm A GIn a world gone...up in smoke
GHow Do we stay honest?
AHow Do we not give up?
DHow Do we stay in love? Hmm-mm
[Verse 2]
DI haven't seen you since
BmThe winter that I watched the house you grew up in
Turn into a prison
DWhen your mother passed away
BmAngel in human skin, there were no words to say
But **** all our religions
[Chorus]
GIt was nothing like they promised
ABut how could we have known?
D A/C# Bm A GIn a world gone...up in smoke
GHow Do we stay honest?
AHow Do we not give up?
DHow Do we stay in love? Hmm-mm (It was nothing like they, nothing like they—)
BmHow Do we stay in love? Hmm-mm, hmm-mm (How Do we stay? How Do we stay?)
G AHow Do we stay in love? Mm
[Bridge]
DWalking down these streets, I'm freezing
A/C#All our footsteps, disappearing
Bm ASome places are built for leaving but
It's like we were never here
[Chorus]
GIt's nothing like they promised
ABut how could we have known?
D A/C# Bm A GIn a world gone...up in smoke
GHow Do we stay honest?
AHow Do we not give up?
DHow Do we stay in love?
