City Of Blinding Lights

[Intro]
(E E E E E E)
A  Asus2/B  D/F#  D/F#  

[Verse 1]
A                 Asus2/B          Asus2/F
The more you see the less you know
Dsus2                        Dsus2/E
The less you find out as you go
A             Asus2/B   Asus2/F#  

I knew much more then 
Dsus2        D   
than I do now

A                 Asus2/B          Asus2/F
Neon heart day glow eyes
Dsus2                        Dsus2/E
A city lit by fireflies
A             Asus2/B   Asus2/F# 
They’re advertising in the skies
Dsus2        D 
For people like us

Cadd9   Dsus2
And I miss you when you’re not around
Cadd9   Dsus2
I’m getting ready to leave the ground….

In the city of blinding lights

[Verse 2]
A                 Asus2/B          Asus2/F
Don’t look before you laugh
Dsus2                        Dsus2/E
Look ugly in a photograph
A             Asus2/B   Asus2/F#
Flash bulbs purple irises
Dsus2                        Dsus2/E
The camera can’t see

A                 Asus2/B          Asus2/F
I’ve seen you walk unafraid
Dsus2                        Dsus2/E
I’ve seen you in the clothes you made
A                 Asus2/B          Asus2/F
Can you see the beauty 
Dsus2        Dsus2/E
inside of me?
 
A   Asus2/B    Asus2/F                    Dsus2         Dsus2/E
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me

Cadd9   Dsus2
And I miss you when you’re not around
Cadd9   Dsus2
I’m getting ready to leave the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
E  Asus2/F#   E/G#   Asus2

[Outro]
A  Asus2/B  D/F#   
In the city of blinding lights
A                     Asus2/B 
The more you know the less you feel
D/F#
Some pray for others steal
A                                       Asus2/B 
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel… 
Dsus2
