[Verse 1]
[C]I was [G]left to [Em]my own[D]devices
[C]Many [G]days fell away[Em]with nothing[D]to show
[Pre-Chorus]
And[C]the walls kept[G]tumbling down
In the city[Em]that we[D]loved
Great[C]clouds roll [G]over the hills
Bringing[Em]darkness from[D]above
[Chorus]
[N.C.]But if you close[C]your eyes,
Does[G]it almost[G]feel like
[Em]Nothing changed[D]at all?
[N.C.]And if you close[C]your eyes,
Does it[G]almost feel like
[Em]You've been[D]here before?
[C]How am I [G]gonna be an[D]optimist about this?

[C]In your [G]pose as the[Em]dust settles[D]around us

In the city[Em]that we[D]loved
Great[C]clouds roll [G]over the hills
Bringing[Em]darkness from[D]above

[N.C.]But if you close[C]your eyes,
Does[G]it almost[G]feel like
[Em]Nothing changed[D]at all?
