C D 

G   C   Am   C D x2    
  
G                              C 
When I see the light why is it terrifying? 
     Am 
It's terrifying, It's coming up 
    D 
I'm going down 
G                                 C 
Down into the streets that got me here 
                Am 
It's blinding, blinding light 
                     C    D 
It's not supposed to rain today 

C        C/B (x20010)     Am 
I see it now, it was just moving too fast 
C        C/B          Am 
I see it now like a reflection in my past 
C         C/B            Am 
Rivers of poison that surround us on an island 
        D         Dsus4 D           Dsus4 (xx0233) 
Full of death and rats, subways and taxicabs 

    G C                    Am 
And you and those blinding lights 
    G  C                    Am     C  D 
Yeah you and those blinding lights 

G                               C 
I just want to sleep, why is it never over 
    Am                                  D 
The day before keeps running through my head 
           G                         C 
I need the downs in the street, it's awe inspiring 
      Am                                C   D 
These strangers passing nobody stops to say goodbye 

C        C/B              Am 
I see it now, it was just moving too fast 
C        C/B          Am 
I see it now like a reflection in my past 
C         C/B         Am 
Rivers of poison that surround us on an island 
        D         Dsus4 D           Dsus4 
Full of death and rats, subways and taxicabs 
D         Dsus4    D                   Dsus4      
All night bars and mistakes you know I made before 
D        Dsus4   D           Dsus4 
Days and nights, endless and overripe 
D         Dsus4              D             Dsus4 
Buses and traffic lights and tourists with subway maps and 

G  C                   Am 
You and those blinding lights 
     G  C                   Am     C  D 
Yeah you and those blinding lights 

     G  C                   Am     
Yeah you and those blinding lights 
     G  C                   Am      
Yeah you and those blinding lights 
               C     D   G 
Shining on the death and rats
