[Verse]
EStreets are filled with broken Aglass
You get buried by the Ampast
Give me just a little Etaste
Lay this mask to Bwaste
Take me Ehome

EMy mind is racing take me Ahome
My body's aching so Amalone
I'll make you want to stay with Eme
Befriended by the Benemy
One more Etime
[Chorus]
EEvery little thing about this tells me
G#mNothing out there is ever gonna help me
F#mAll these words that I hear spoken B
Just promises broken Enow

[Bridge]
GLooking outside from my window sill
CThrow another coin in the wishing well
You'll Gnever find what you're Clooking for
A15 Dmiles
Your Adim light shines
From so Dfar away
BYour sad Esmile, is Ball I see
EWhen I say...
[Chorus]
EEvery little thing about this tells me
G#mNothing out there is ever gonna help me
F#mAll these words that I hear spoken B
Just promises broken nEow
