[Intro]
F#m9
[Verse 1]
F#m9
Government test climate best
If you're looking for no rest
And at midnight you can grab your keys
Am9
And slip into your bulletproof dress
F#m9
Television comes to life
And it works the street tonight
Siren's the song and it's remixed long
Am9
Into the broad daylight
F#m9
Sleeping with the only one you can't out run
[Pre-chorus 1]
F#m9 Em9
Gotta run before the sun catches up to me
F#m9 Em9
Days they go too slow I'm blinded
F#m9
Seein' only what I want to see
[Chorus]
N.C. Am9 F#m9
In this enchanted land of a thousand chances
Am9 F#m9
You only get just one and it's gone
[Verse 2]
F#m9
Well I'm just another creep
In that town that never sleeps
Met the one I adore at a liquor store
Am9
And she gave up counting sheep
F#m9
And she explained to me
What "waitress" really means
That most ignore what she's waiting for
Am9
While earning an honest keep
F#m9
She's acting out tinsel town's most-hated scene
[Pre-chorus 2]
F#m9 Em9
Gotta run before the sun catches up to me
F#m9 Em9
Days they go too slow I'm blinded
F#m9
Seein' only what I want to see
[Chorus]
N.C. Am9 F#m9
In this enchanted land of a thousand chances
Am9 F#m9
You only get just one and it's gone
[Solo]
Same as verse, then:
F#5 A5 C#5
[Final chorus]
N.C. Am9 F#m9
Disenchanted in this land of a thousand chances
Am9 F#m9
You only get just one and it's gone
