[Intro 1]
[D][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[D]How [G]can I
pretend you and I are [Em]equal?
I was [D]there at [G]the opening,
[D]you [G]showed up at the [Em]sequel
And [D]in [G]the lobby you explore
the dimensions of [Em]equal[F]
You [G]can't reduce the past
to a [D]memory
[A]Your [G]time is fading fast,
you're [D]un [A]empty
[G]Only for a moment that I've [D]tasted[A]
The [G]bittersweetest dreams [D]that [G]I've
[D]wasted[A][Em][D][G][Em]
Ima[D]gine [G]the idolatrous
[D]deep [G]kiss on the lov[Em]er
It's an [D]ugly [G]American [D]scene,
[G]black and whi[Em]te
It's [D]down on [G]the master tapes,
from the bass to the [Em]treble
[F]In silence, in silence
You [G]can't reduce the past to a [D]memory
[A]Hey, your tim[G]e is fading fast,
you're [D]un empty
[A]Onl[B]y f[A]or [B]a[A][G][A][Bb]
moment have I [F]tasted[C]
[Bb]Don't need to [C]be [Bb]strange
to [C]see what [Bb]I've [F]wasted[C][D][G][Em]
I [D]can[G]not pretend you and I are [Em]equal
When I was [D]there at [G]the opening
you [D]showed [G]up in the seq[Em]uel
And [D]in [G]the lobby
you explore
the dimensions of [Em]evil
We [F]silence ourselves
You [G]can't reduce the past
To [D]remem[A]ber
Your [G]time is fading fast
You're un[D]empty
[A]Onl[G]y for a moment
Have I [D]tasted[A]
The [G]bitter of these dreams
That I've [D]wasted[A]
You [G]taught me
How to stay [D]free[A]
You [G]taught me

[Outro 1]
Just stay, just stay free
[G][A][E][Em]
