I got a feeling inside that I can't domesticate 
              Am           G 
It doesn't wanna live in a cage 
                 F 
A feeling that I can't housebreak 
      Am 
And I'm yours 
         G                               F

I'm just a full tank away from freedom

verse 3 
           Am 
I'm sifting through the sand, sand, sand 
                  F 
Looking through pieces of broken hourglass 
                     C 
Trying to get it all back 

Put it back together 
          G 
As if the time had never passed 
                Am 
I know I should walk away, know I should walk away 
       F 
But I just want to let you break my brain 
      C 
And I can't seem to get a grip 
   G 
No matter how I live with it 

 
                 Am G Dm   F G 
These are the last blues, yeah 
    Am                  G 
The glow of the cities below lead us back 
Dm                                      F G 
To the places that we never should have left 
    Am               G 
The last blues we're ever gonna have 
Dm                       F G 
Let's see how deep we'll get 
    Am                  G 
The glow of the cities below lead us back 
Dm 
To the places that we never should have left

    Am              G 
The last, the last, the last 
    Dm                     F G 
The last, the last, the last 
    Am              G 
The last, the last, the last 
    Dm                     F G   Am 
The last, the last, the last
