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 
         C   
When the walls cave in, we only have ourselves to blame 

          C                                Em      D 
And even if it's dark at least we'll be together 
         C                           Em        D   
Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever 
           C                                 Em     D 
You better grab a hold and hold on for your life 
              C                D 
Because you don't get lucky twice 

Em             G           C                 
         Now even if it's perfect, I can't get carried away 
Em           G           C 
        And motivate my tongue in twisted ways 
               Em              G                C 
It felt like a good night, for dancing and the moonlight 
                         Em         G            C 
In empty streets, well, everybody's got a reason why  
If we could only just get it right 

C                                      Em       D    
Maybe it will all work out like in the movies 
           C                          Em       D 
But I know Romeo must die before the ending 
        C                           Em         D 
With a final poison kiss delivered gently 
             C                   D                     G    G     Em    D       
Because you don't get lucky twice, and that's the truth 

G                                 G 
Sing to me sweet, just like my memory 
            Em            
If New York City still moves me 
        D 
Then I found something real 
G                      G 
I'll be okay, I could go on for days 
           Em                             D 
But I just don't have the courage that it takes to be real 

         C                                  Em      D   
And even if it's dark at least we'll be together 
         C                           Em      D 
Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever 
            C                                Em      D 
You better grab a hold and hold on for your life 
            C                D 
Because you don't get lucky twice 
         C               D 
No, you don't get lucky twice
