VERSE
B
She said let's change our luck
F# C#
this night is all we've got
B F#
drive fast until we crash
C#
this dead end life
B
sweet dreams that won't come true
F# C#
I'd leave it all for you
B
brick walls are closing in
F# C#
let's make a run tonight
PRECHORUS
Bb Eb B C#
blinded by the lights
Bb Eb
hold you through forever
B C#
Won't let you go
CHORUS
F#
cause if you jump
C# Eb
I will jump too
B
we will fall together
F# C# Eb
from the building's ledge
B F# C#
never looking back at what we've done
Eb B
we'll say it was love
G#
cause I would die for you
B C#
on skyway avenue
VERSE 2
B F#
she said don't change your mind
C#
let's leave this town behind
B
we'll race right off the cliff
F# C#
they will remember this
B
it all got so mundane
F# C#
with you I'm back again
B
just take me by the hand
F# C#
we're close to the edge
PRECHORUS
Bb Eb B C#
blinded by the lights
Bb Eb
hold you through forever
B C#
Won't let you go
CHORUS
F#
cause if you jump
C# Eb
I will jump too
B
we will fall together
F# C# Eb
from the building's ledge
B F# C#
never looking back at what we've done
Eb B
we'll say it was love
G#
cause I would die for you
B C#
on skyway avenue
Eb B
where are your guts to fly
F# C#
soaring through, through the night
Eb
and if you take that last step
B
I'll follow you
F#
leave the edge and fly
C#
we're finally alive
